Histamine problem solved!
My mom called this morning. She and my dad are visiting this weekend. In addition to being the world's best house guests (knowing that I neither cook nor clean, they are bringing their own sheets, their own towels, and a lasagna), they are also delivering a big ol' box of Alavert, purchased on the cheap at the biggest big box store of them all: Super WalMart.
It's not cheating if I didn't request it. Right?

You are cheating!!! But I guess I will allow you to. I always think, hmm could I do what Abby is doing. Most likely not. What would you say about co-ops? I love REI and it is a chain but its a co-op so I think it is a much more friendly chain, could you shop there?
I totally agree with the Starbucks argument. It is really good at educating consumers about coffee, developing a taste for it and developing the traffic necessary to support a local shop. What other chains do that? Just some things to think about.
Who are you, conflict resolution forum???
I don't like going anywhere that isn't paved, so REI isn't tops on my shopping list, but it's a fine establishment. Co-ops are great. I don't (yet) have any big moral beef with chain stores in general. Really, I just wanted to see whether I could go without them for a year. So far, it's working for me. After this year is up, I'm sure I will go back to them--it's the American way, and I am an American girl.
