I try to do as much of the limited amount of shopping that I do in local stores. If it is a chain store (it's hard to get all your food without going to a chain grocery store unless you have a local co-op, which we do not), I try to patronize the independently owned and operated ones.

I have only entered my local Walmart maybe half a dozen times, always with the Hippie, never on my own initiative (usually because said Hippie needed CDs or DVDs and there was a good special on). More than once I have stomped out, purchaseless, muttering about corporate evil.

I'm very fond of Thrift stores.

Also, LAST, and if anyone takes my place, I won't know it, because my book and I are going to read in bed...
 
I was talking about really co-operatives, not "the Co-op"... There's a little group of them starting up in my county, none yet in my City. Here's a nice example of one in my area: http://www.thekarmaprojectinc.com/ They tend to be a bit hippie-ish, but so, of course, do I...

And LAST (still up, *sigh*)
 
What type of books do you like to read Bette?

I will walk into Walmart but only once a year (before Christmas) and may pick up the odd item but it isn't a big shopping spree. That I save for the local stores.

What about Calgary Coop? I would call it local, but a chain. I don't know if North-Central Coop is something you consider to be 'the Co-op'. I am a partial owner.

Calgary Co-op does have local produce, but they also have produce from China which would have a huge carbon footprint as it must be flown in. Have to watch what you are buying. Also a locally owned IGA that carries some local produce. Like going to the local market in season to get Alberta and BC produce. Oh and one more thing, I'm last again.

The Baptist Burger's a gain - and the profit it Ben Ervin up for desserts now in Jet, often served up now and chewy.
