Quiltmaker I too couldn't agree more with you on this issue.
Personally I can't understand why all these people out there don't make a collective stand against these large companies who have forgotten that it is the customer who keeps them in business.
We the people have the power to change things if we stand together collectively yet instead we all seem to whinge and moan about the price of fuel, the price of milk, bank fees or what ever yet do nothing else about it.
If collectively everyone boycotted one particular store for 1 day in protest at that stores actions then it would make a difference and send a very clear message, unfortunately people are either too short sighted or too self centred to do so as we all seem to be about convenience to "US" rather than fixing our bottom line so it isn't going to happen.
Maybe1day.
