In our town we had the best Pamida…

In our town we had the best Pamida store.  In the fall of 2012 it was converted into a Shopko Home Town.  What a disaster.  Here it is the 9th of December and there is not one single decorated Christmas tree in the store.  No holiday feeling goes right along with an inadequate amount of inventory.  The price of the inventory is notably higher than before.  Our Family Dollar store is bursting with products and is busier than they can handle at times.  I think the only thing that is keeping the Shopko store going is the pharmacy. The pharmacy is not Dennis’ favorite place to go as the eight people working behind the counter are tripping over each other with total disorganization.

Sometimes bigger is not better.  It is wonderful to have choices in a small town.  Many small towns don’t even have a loaf of bread or a gallon of milk to sell.

Catch ya later.
