$6 coffee and then they want a tip.![]()
Wasn't Walmart the world leader when they still had Made in the USA signs in the stores?
I never said that or implied it. That is fully contrary to what I believe. I also said to me it is neither good or bad, it just is and is with zero effect on their domination of the retail industry. That is observation, not judgement.No one’s dragging you into anything. I was genuinely curious, that since you believe an individual’s decision to boycott is useless, whether a single vote is useless.
As much as I have enjoyed that particular boycott and fully wish it had gone further or at least far enough to make a very real impact to InBev's bottom line, while BL as a single brand suffered mightily and to the point it may never recover, it is a very small blip on the parent company's financial radar if you follow the 12 month moving average valuation. The part that I found most fascinating is they got it from both sides. As soon as it started and they didn't prop up the weirdo with a lot more public support, then the alternate community turned against them as well.I believe strength is in numbers. A single vote, or a $20 sale may not make a noticeable difference, but multiply by a million and you’re getting somewhere. The recent Bud Light boycott is just one example of consumers voting with their money.
Do you think there is one thing you have tried to point out that I am not acutely aware of?Same analogy could be applied to a wide range of actions (ex: planting a single tree).
Respectfully, if that’s too political, feel free to ignore.
How so? I don't shop Walmart for the same reason I try to support locally owned businesses and why I wouldn't buy the OP's Chinesium Currie ripoff.
Where is your phone made?
I've not said his stand should or should not be admired. I just pointed out the obvious. It has no effect on their status as the top retail giant.I understand what you are saying @mrblaine but I still admire his stand on what he believes.
We tried them a few times, then went back to our normal way of doing things and supported the small mom and pop coffee shops in the area.I don't do Starbucks because of their stand against the 2nd amendment.
Plus I dang sure am not paying 6 bucks for a cup of coffee.
If I were to tout a boycott of a business as my personal expression of a meaningless badge of honor, it would be Walmart for succumbing to outside pressure and removing a lot of firearms and firearm related items from their stores over mass shooting incidents they were not responsible for.
Folders black silk brewed in my Kitchen.
Very rarely ever buy coffee from a coffee shop.
When I do it's either Pilot truck stop or Loves truck stop. Both are on my way to work.
Get it right, he's 234 months.Also, ya gotta stop mentioning your age in every other post. Only thing more cringe is to say you’re 19 and a half.
Reminds me of a certain company's tail light ad. I wish I could get US made tail light panels, I don't know that anyone would pay for them.Someone should buy this one and let me know how well it works.

I saw another kit from a different seller. The reviews say it all.

Bought this instead of the “name brand” one. I’m NOT impressed. Jam nuts on the rods are all threaded crooked and the nuts wobble all around and just look asymmetrical. I had to use a large washer and shim one side to get enough clearance past my steering box bolts. Spend a little more and get the real thing .

1.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS A COUNTERFEIT PRODUCT - not Currie even though they use CE-9900JKF part number
Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2023
Verified Purchase
This product is advertised with part number CE-9900JKF
CE literally stands for Currie Enterprises who makes this actual product:
"RockJock CE-9900JKF Front Anti-Rock Sway Bar Kit with Steel Mounts"
These arms have the part number pressed in them, but are not Currie. None of the hardware is Currie either. The threads do not fit in the sway bar link mounts on the jeep, and connections are all cheap chinese crap. DO NOT BUY THIS CHEAP KNOCK OFF, you will regret it. I called Currie to confirm.
No need to bring up @AndyG and his dash full of ducks.![]()
Ok, then I must've misread your post, my apologies.I never said that or implied it. That is fully contrary to what I believe. I also said to me it is neither good or bad, it just is and is with zero effect on their domination of the retail industry. That is observation, not judgement.
That is true, but $500 million is still $500 million. I can only hope other companies take this as a lesson in "mess around and find out". Keyword: hope.As much as I have enjoyed that particular boycott and fully wish it had gone further or at least far enough to make a very real impact to InBev's bottom line, while BL as a single brand suffered mightily and to the point it may never recover, it is a very small blip on the parent company's financial radar if you follow the 12 month moving average valuation.

Nope, and not sure why that matters.Do you think there is one thing you have tried to point out that I am not acutely aware of?
Because if you know I already know it, then you can stop saying things that don't matter because I already know them.Nope, and not sure why that matters.
For me since its on my way to work, 7 Eleven is my go to regardless of work or not
Have you seen their new coffee machines ? The ones in my area got more damn options and buttons than an airplane
Jokes aside i love 7-elevenIt used to be Racetrac with the fancy machines but 7-Eleven topped them but like 5 times more
Pilot is good too!
Having been a tech vendor for 7-11, I can assure you they are a horrible company to work with. I could tell you some stories about 2am troubleshooting sessions with their CTO showing his ass... But I could probably get over some of that if they would take some of those profits and put them into ONE FUCKING MOP and maybe the training to use it.
Yeah, 7-11 is a real trigger for me. Those wounds are deep.
Feel free to carry on with the regularly scheduled discussion.
