One of the many many reasons I hate big corporations that come in, plop down a walmart, and drive all the local owned businesses out of business.
I visited my dad, and saw the corner store I used to go to when I was a kid, at the top of my dads street. I walked in, and the guy who owned the store when I was 12 still owns it today. His hair is greyer, his face is older, but we IMMEDIATELY recognized each other. He used to have a smaller store across the street when I was 4, but moved to the bigger store when I was 6. He's still there, AND he bought his competition. A different corner store 3 streets away.
He was out of the pina colada drink I used to buy as a kid. But it's partially because the company that makes them went out of business 20 years ago. I jokingly said "The ONE TIME I come to visit, and you're OUT???" And he said "Yeah yeah. Normally I'd have them in that cooler over there, but, ya know....I don't get shipments anymore after that company closed."
Now and Laters are $1.50 now!!! When I was a kid they were $0.05!!! And now they're chewy!!! They used to be hard bricks that eventually softened up after 10 minutes. What is this chewey madness???
