Well sadly they started to lack in the products. i.e. I went looking for white computer paper one day to find 3 shelving sections empty where the computer paper should have been. They are trying to be a supercentre, but don't have the space or the budgeting that Walmart has. So when Walmart opened in my town last month I was excited, that I would be able to go and find what I was looking for.<br />Many people in town say support the Canadian chain (zellers), however HBC is now American owned, not Canadian. <br />I totally understand your point of view as well having worked in retail about treatment of employees as a means to an end - the good 'ol American Dollar. <br />It's not always easy to make the right choices, especially when convenience and price play a factor for the majority of the population. :-SMiranda @ MirandasJeanshttp://www.mirandasjeans.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8232435295934917.post-481613729535086852010-07-16T10:25:48.172-04:002010-07-16T10:25:48.172-04:00A good, thoughtful post, Jennifer.
And it's ...A good, thoughtful post, Jennifer. <br />And it's not just Walmart. Unfortunately, corporate America in general is increasingly driven by greed. Focus has shifted to ONLY the dollar, rather than just making a reasonable profit PLUS respecting employees AND being a responsible corporate citizen.Vernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815629682873183986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8232435295934917.post-10408956504142340462010-07-15T12:21:04.367-04:002010-07-15T12:21:04.367-04:00Those look amazing!

Maybe it's worth looking into? Also, it's great that you are thinking and looking ahead now. When I was a senior I just had so much going on I just took the first job I could get (for my year off between undergrad and starting grad school) and it ended up being a really awful year. You seem like you are planning ahead more so you can avoid just being tossed out there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8232435295934917.post-64641850006754316022010-07-11T19:46:50.643-04:002010-07-11T19:46:50.643-04:00What does the green drink taste like? does the ban...What does the green drink taste like? does the banana and pineapple cover the taste of the spinach?Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06871962502733732106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8232435295934917.post-40504622241870054722010-07-11T07:20:10.186-04:002010-07-11T07:20:10.186-04:00Can you believe I have yet to try cacao nibs?!?!
