Anyone noticing minor changes/problems in daily life?

63. Well the saddest part to me is areas where they have pushed out other grocery stores other outlets

Absolutely no choice except the second tier items for those areas now unless they travel I have seen in docs about Walmart moving in to areas where completion drops out
also of course the people who can only afford it or limited $ store items the only option.
and terrible the areas with only convenience stores who may not have the lower bulk quality but high prices limited items and little produce
I don’t shop at Walmart but I have been at ones and I really don’t see that much of a bargain but maybe I’m not looking for the same things like soda and cookies - items where they make their own brands.
I have also been in Costco their quality may be high but I told my friend I could get that cheaper elsewhere and don’t need to buy 6 of something to do it or wait in a long line
so it’s different with everyone
Some have choices they make and some are just stuck by location or income or both
