oh yes, i agree. i don't like the fact that SB is taking over. and i also hate wal-mart with a passion. although i DID give in and go there when i visited my mom last month. we were able to stock up on 1.5 months of groceries for a mere $73!

GM doesn't surprise me much. seems like those places that are most hard hit are in the red zones. so it kind of makes sense. i mean, GM is cutting thousands of jobs while advertising "get your car at the employee discount price". so yeah, that doesn't surprise me that GM is in the red column.
