Personally, I'll never shop at Super Wal-Mart, Harris Teeter, or BJs Wholesale because of the way they treat vendors. But that's a bit closer to my heart than most. When you have to stand outside in the rain while the bread is getting drenched in rain because they'll only let one person in at a time, then complain that the bread is wet, I get pissed. Wonder why their bread randomly goes moldy far before the expiration date!

I feel you. My husband's a bread man. I hope he never gets a Super Wal-Mart on his route.

If you guys think it's tough purchasing gas for your personal vehicles, try having to buy gas for a delivery truck every few days. Between our personal vehicles and the bread truck, we'll probably end up spending around $1000 this month on fuel.
