Dollar General - just a thought [View all]
The "dollar stores" are becoming more and more common. They are the discount stores, mostly modeled on Drug Stores, that have as their main claim to fame that they are even less expensive than Wal-Mart.
I am laying in a Hospital room taking on a 3-day long Chemo session, my seventh. I have the TV on in the room and the Speed Channel, which follows motor-sports, is on - volume off. They have a NASCAR race on, something that is no interest to me what so ever but I did take notice that the only car in the background of the garage shot I saw was sponsored by "Dollar General". If you can't afford Wal-Mart this is the store for you.
After seeing that I Googled the cost of operation of a NASCAR team for one car. It runs, according to the article I read, about $5 Million dollars a year to field a team/car. And every one of those dollars came from people who can not afford to shop at Wal-Mart.
