Sorry fellows, but I can't buy into this "boycott" attitude.
In my opinion, the very WORST thing you can do is to get emotional with money. Unless the business is operating illegally, or doing something else that would be considered unethical, I'm going to do the thing that benefits my financial situation.
Not shopping at a store because "they made me mad" isn't going to fatten your wallet. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
I drive within a mile of the local SW every day. Whether I "like" the people there or approve of their business management techniques has absolutely no bearing on the cost of their goods that I want or need. If they have it, and it's at the right price, I'll buy it from them. There isn't a marriage agreement at the counter that you have to sign..... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused1.gif
While I think that it would be beneficial for EVERY business to offer a discount to active military, the truth is that it is actually a very rare instance. Sad, but true.
OK....go ahead and charcoal me....... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
