Love the city clickers in these threads calling DG the devil. I clearly see the harm in placing them in cities. But I can clearly see the benefit of placing them in the boonies. Guarantee that any replies to this post will tell me exactly which locale that person lives in. Hint: You won’t find us rural people bitching about a new DG moving in.
I’m on the very edge of town and the new DG was a godsend. 6-miles to a mildly overpriced supermarket. I can walk to DG faster. Plus, there are a lot of poor people here who can’t afford cars. You’ll see them walking and biking with DG bags everywhere. What else are they to do?
“But they’re killing rural mom-and-pop stores!”
Are they? All I see in the countryside is a DG with nothing else around for miles and miles and miles.
Funny anecdote on that; I have a camp outside Holt, FL, pop. 2,400 (and that covers a lot of ground).
There are exactly 2 places to purchase goods, mom-and-pop gas station/general store and DG. The home-grown store is in zero danger, they’re jam packed.
Come take a 12-hour drive through the South’s back highways with me, let’s see what you think.
