The Dollar War
Our town has been invaded…and is now the location of a huge all-out war.
The participants? Family Dollar and Dollar General. It seems that in the last year those two have built store after store here. Everywhere a Family Dollar goes up Dollar General is hot on it’s heels building one right down the street from it. I think we are up to some dumbass number like 15 total. And they are starting work on ANOTHER Dollar General.
I think I can name only one time I went into Family Dollar…and it was because I was late to a birthday party and needed a card because the gas station was out of em’. I don’t dare go into Dollar General, the grey and yellow look of the place is a bit freaky. So, I have basically no use for them. And I never see cars in their parking lots. Yet they continue to build. *shakes head*
They say history repeats itself which is all too true. In the mid 80s there was a huge influx of Circle K stations built here. At it’s peak there were like 11 in a town who’s population was way under 100,000. All but like 4 of them went under of course because seriously how many fucking Circle K’s does one town need? I predict the same fate for the Dollar War because our population may have risen since the 80s but our need for discounted crap is not gonna keep these business floating…cuz we got Walmart suckers ;o)
