It's all about smart shoppong. All you complainers are probably shopping at your favored "gourmet" or "health foods" stores. Yes, you know who you are. The ones who spend 10 bucks on a cup of coffee and complain about a bagel shop you went to EVERYDAY being gone. A pack of bandaids at one dollar store was $1.25 as opposed to over 6 bucks at another dollar type store..same amount, same quanity.
