Thread: Jo Ann's buyout?

I'm a Wal-Mart shopper simply because it fits my life style and budget. When people tell me they shop at Dillards or Macy's - I say "good for you". I can't afford them. And I won't shop there just so I can say "I shop at Dillards".
The same goes for JoAnn's. It's what I can afford and it makes me happy.
I tried a personal boycot of Wal-Mart a while ago, but soon found I couldn't find the things I need or want anywhere else. Is this because they have inticed all shoppers so that all the other stores have closed up shop?

IMO, inflation has already started. If the U.S. currency is no longer used as the world reserve currency - as the World Bank and United Nations plans to change - it will be the end of "hobby" quilting for most of us retired people on fixed income. For me, it will mean recycling fabric from clothes to sew more clothes. (I can do that!) Sale coupons won't even be an issue. The next 2 years will be interesting and challenging. Hang on for the ride.
