I live in one of those small towns where Walmart put all the other discount
stores out of business, Kmart, Gibson's and Alco. We finally got a Target
but there are still a few things I can only get at Walmart. I'll go there
for those few things and that's it. We used to have 3 grocery stores too.
We're down to the one big chain that can survive against Walmart. We also
lost a couple of hardware stores and fabric stores.

Yeah, it's got to be an absolutely can't get it anywhere else item before
I'll go there.

I'll buy my Ratatouillie dvd at Target and probably get a better price.
