Thanks anyway. I'll try to remember to look next time I'm in the

store.
Or maybe I should say "next time I can find the soup in the store".
(They are remodeling.)


We just went through that with my favorite store, or should I say what
used to be my favorite store? I can't find a damned thing now.

I have yet to see the rationale. The last time, it just seemed to be
busy work. Why do stores just change where things are anyway? :-(

It's the Walmart syndrome. Ever been in the supermarket at a Super
Walmart? Every damned week they move the things on the aisles around and
even change the aisles. Their marketing people are hoping you will get
confused and have to wander around and the more you wander the more you
will buy. The main reason I don't shop there.


Oddly ehough, the two WalMart Super Centers where we do shop never seem to
do that. They are both very predictable, with the exception of seasonal
items which are usually outin the aisles.
