I am the bookkeeper at a convenience store/gas station and I have to figure out every day how to pay the bills. I get a little tired of people thinking we are getting rich and gouging the public.
The same principle applies to gas or any product a store is selling as applies to the cost of fabric explained in the OP.
Agree with you 100%, Barb.
I'm really tired of people accusing business of gouging or somehow being underhanded in their business practices when they're only trying to make a fair profit and stay in business.
Organized boycotting of a LQS for charging normal retail prices is misguided at best and unjust at worst. LQS's aren't trying to chase off customers. They're trying to pay their rent and keep people employed.
