I feel really "dirty" but I did a good thing tonight.
My youngest son got a gift card from Walmart for his birthday, and he wanted to use it for a new video game. I haven't even been in Walmart for well over a year. (I will not condemn or berate those of you who have to shop there, but I live in a metropolitan area and have lots of other shopping options.)

I decided to take this opportunity to do a little "shopping-cart blogging". I left a couple of dozen anti-Walmart flyers in shopping carts and between the cd's.

3. You made the best of a tricky situation, so don't beat yourself up.
Real life is a compromise, y'know.

Did you tell your son about the blogging, and why you were doing it?

4. WalMart already had the money.
Had you NOT used the card, you would have been gifting them with it. By using it, you at least reduced the amount of it they can keep.

5. Just be careful
The scum that is Wal-Mart will trump up some absurd charge that makes you an example.


They are pure evil

the word that WalMart is evil, I do, every chance I get.
