Up in Madisonburg there's so danged much construction going on it's impossible to repair roads as quickly as dump trucks and low-boys hauling earth machines can tear them up. Probably ten subdivisions currently in building phase. Who doesn't want a lumberyard and concrete business near Madison. That's the cost of being Madison. <br /><br />The rest of you can just repair the screen doors on your trailer and hunker down for Whole Foods' opening giveaways.

Personally I prefer Costco, which is a much better. But the quantities sold at warehouse stores are quite reasonable and in many cases cheap.<br /><br />For perhaps ten bucks I can buy 150 Red Solo Cups (which fill me up). At the grocery store these are about $4 for two dozen. So I can get them for about the third the grocery store price at a warehouse store. Same for lots of other goods. The nice little Styrofoam coffee cups with lids cost about $3 a dozen at the grocery store. $15 at a warehouse store buys me 200.<br /><br />One does not buy super-large quantities at a warehouse store. One buys just enough. Yes, the laundry detergent comes in a bigger bottle, but I've never needed to throw any out. Just all the way across the board. And yes, I shop at grocery stores, too. I go to the store that sells the stuff I want.<br /><br />As for food, grocery store specials are frequently at far better prices than those at warehouse stores. But the warehouse stores tend to have great produce.Col.

I was only trying to point out that the concept of a Sam's Club associated with a strip shopping center was already in existence, whether based on the new business model or not Maybe odd, but someone in the Walton empire thought it was a good idea and built the Sam's Club and WalMart right next door to each other.<br /><br />Wildwood Centre was opened on September 29, 1991 to the south of Birmingham, but north of Hoover, Alabama on Lakeshore Drive next to I-65. The mall's original anchor stores were Sam's Club and Wal-Mart. Wal Mart was originally a small-footprint store, but expanded into a Wal-Mart Supercenter in the mid-1990s. Adjoining the Wal-Mart and Sam's Club is the 325,000-square-foot (30,200 m2) retail strip mall developed in the first phase. Anchor tenants now include Hobby Lobby, Academy Sports and Outdoors, SuperPetz, and K&G Menswear. The Center also includes approximately 100,000 square feet (9,300 m2) of shop space<br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-49932010070513856452013-01-09T15:35:47.802-06:002013-01-09T15:35:47.802-06:002:29; I know you didn't call me an unemployed ...2:29; I know you didn't call me an unemployed loser fart. I know that because Kingfish has told me he doesn't allow that type of personal nasty insult. That aside, get a grip genius, you may be working for one of my businesses as we speak. <br /><br />Why everyone wants to paint this as a failure of Jackson is beyond me, although I realize that's a primary mission of many JJ threads. Sam's is moving for the variety of reasons I've posted. And for the same reason O'Charley's just down the street is closing. Can't get in or out of the place and it's tough to negotiate the traffic for an hour in order to get to the place and away from it. That may not be structural, but it's INFRAstructural.
