How can anyone complain about lousy customer service from stores that cut prices to the point that no independent business person can stay in business. Hmm, maybe it's because they pay nothing to the workers, and only hire half the required workers needed to properly run a large store. The reason you get lousy customer service is because you are NOT PAYING FOR IT. When you want to buy a bicycle or a fishing license, go to a sporting goods store or a bike store or a local bait shop. Sure you will pay more for stuff there, but you will most likely get better and prompt service. The moral of the story is, don't expect something for nothing. When a large company comes in and sells products so cheaply that it drives out all other related businesses in the area, something has got to give.
