I was in Big Lots that other day

Posted: Dec 17, 2009

and could not believe how much everything in that store had gone up! You would be better shopping at Wal-Mart, Dollar General, or even Target! I was actually in shock. I grew up shopping from Big Lots and that was the place we would save some money on buying things like cleaning supplies and paper products. I guess that is a sign of the times. I can "X" Big Lots of the store list I just don't step foot in anymore. :(

I don't go there much anymore either. - shopper

The one here is really run down. They don't keep it clean and the quality of the products leave something to be desired. Now, when it first opened, it was great.

I buy body wash, shampoo, cleaning supplies and the - kt

like at either a Dollar General store or at the Dollar store where everything is 1 dollar. The shampoo and body wash are name brands, so there is no difference other than the price.

Well had the first cataract done today. In lots of pain today. I didn't know it would be this bad or I might have reconsidered having it done. Neighbor is putting my drops in though most people I talk with do it themselves. He was adamant. I hope I will be able to do it myself tomorrow. Please pray this pain goes away and the healing comes quickly. Anyway, the anesthesiologist prayed for me before we started. I appreciated that and was quite surprised. I hope I can drive myself p ...

I would love to raise some chickens but DH is against it. He hates them, says they're ugly, doesn't like eating chicken, and hates those "slimy eggs," hasn't eaten one in over 50 years, but I'm the opposite. Do you think I can convince him to let me raise a few? A few questions are: 1. How many chickens do you have? 2. If you live in northern states, do you insulate your coop to keep your chickens warm? 3. How many eggs per week do you get? 4 ...

Didn't want my reply to get buried below. I have a lifetime of experience with Alaska, western Canada (Alberta, BC), and the Pacific Northwest (WA, OR, ID) - and youth spent in the midwest (MO, KS). There's one thing you definitely need to consider right off the bat that has to do with climate indirectly, and it affects a lot of people very negatively - which is the more extreme differences in daylight hours between summer and winter as you move further north. You don' ...

They never stop talking, but they never talk about anything of substance. If it's mean-spirited and fits on a bumper sticker, that's as much as they can deal with. Ask for more than that and you get more bumper-sticker mentality, more words, still no substance. ...
