Great post. It's easy for poor customer experiences to turn into the opposite of word-of-mouth advertising. In a small town, it can mean death to a business. Anyways, I'll pop back again in the future to see if you have any new content. Good luck with finding more work! Hey Vinny,

I always went there to buy frozen burgers... they simply disappeared as well. Not unlike your croutons. Plus to me they look trashier in general than Safeway. Yes, the Giant in Crofton sucks.

Plus to me they look trashier in general than Safeway.

And then every couple of years or so they re-arrange everything so that everyone has to spend more time looking. It makes me so mad that I would go somewhere else if my small town had another option. It may make them money (?) but it doesn't build customer loyalty or good will. I’m a contractor, and I know my way around the local Lowe’s store about as well as the better employees do.
