Right. I'll make a note of that. I actually didn't realize you were a Ute. That explains things. (just a joke) Besides, I'm married to a hippie. If there's any self-righteousness to be had. It's in hippiedom.
So, here's how it happened: we used to only have one credit card. We used it for everything and then we paid it off every month. Anyhow, so at the end of the year they sent us an itemized statement of how much we had spent at each retailer. It was mind-boggling.

It is not as though Walmart has no competition, at least where I live.

I live next door to Arkansas, and WalMart has shut out the competition. There's one on every corner. Albertsons pulled out of the state last year. So it's likely a different impact on the local economy than what your community sees.
