one more thing



Whether its Walmart or Cabelas or any of the other giants. This can be construed as progress and/or "whats to come in the future." Thier is just so much more riding on this type of business coming to the area for us, and our friends who run the shops we patronize. AND HAS ANYBODY NOTICED THAT PRICES ARE NOT ANY CHEAPER AT WALMART THAN THEY ARE AT YOUR LOCAL TACKLE SHOPS , and for many items that I buy I believe are less expensive. The bid deal is that Cabelas and/or Walmart have everything you could imagine under one roof sports wise. The regular prices are the same until they start putting items on sale as come ons to get your in the store.

In case none of you noticed in Mass. all of the big supermarkets are sponsering a bill before the legislature that will in all likelihood eliminate the corner packy. Roche Bros., Shaw's, and Stop and Shop or as I like to refer to it, Stop and Steal, all want to sell hard liquor now. In other words maiking thier beer and wine licenses all alcohol licenses. Same difference, same problem as Cabelas moving in. I dont see wine or beer prices any different in Roche Bros than I do at the corner packy.
