i live in an area with a few thousand houses and only one supermarket which is Kroger.
I have been to Kroger many times to refill water,a few potatos or scallions,i never have the urge or enthusiasm to buy more,WHY??Because few people buy,they dont stock a lot and this is a super Kroger,so it becomes a self fullfilling prophecy,you walk in and you see a few here and there in fresh produce and you dont see why you have to buy.
There is no long line and you have the whole aisle to yourself,how do can they keep this up,it will soon be a year old.

Maybe you should write to Wal Mart and have them open a Super Store in your small town. They can then put all of the small "exciting" stores out of business, hire the former owners of those stores for minimum wage, and then raid the management from Kroger. Only then will you see the walls of Kroger fall. Until then, I would recommend using your time a bit more wisely to find some exciting things to do.
Cow tipping gets old after awhile, but if you're creative enough, you can find some special mushrooms in those pastures and make Kroger a little more colorful and interesting.

FYI, he lives in the HOUSTON Texas area, nothing SMALL about that town.

If you're really having trouble finding places to spend your money, you could send it to me and I'll spend it for you. No trouble.... really. I'd be happy to help.

Or, you might try driving out of your little neighborhood to find a more interesting market. My trips to the market are 80+ mile round trips. C'mon, gas is the cheapest liquid you can buy.
