Well it seems like so many people say they dont like those stores and its cheap and the’yre stuff *****.So why is that?? Did they truly have such a horrible experience there?? People are also always complaining about money issues when they can save a few bucks by going there.Im not poor but Im not rich.My husband is in the military and we get by.I know about money problems because I grew up with hardly any.Im glad for that.Because now I can use the things I’ve learned in my life growing up.Im a good saver and spender.I plan ahead and save for the expensive things I want or need.But it just bothers me how paople could just bash on other people for going into those places.If they had a walmart here in Guam Id probably go there 3-4 x a week.You get really good deals there. Sometimes even cheaper then on base.

what part of indian culture makes them always want to get the best deal on things, no matter what effect it has on other people or businesses?

they come in to my store and bargain me down ALL day.. stuff is clearly marked with a price and they do not give up. i even caught two of them slapping hands right behind my back because they got a 5 dollar discount out of me on an item

at the same time, they are the biggest proprieters of small business and obviously know the costs of keeping a place running.. i have never gone to a 7-11 trying to get half off on a newspaper or a pack of cigs.

I guess what i’m saying is they try and get you with their pricing yet they refuse to pay yours. they are scrapin both sides of the field and saving every bit they can. they come here to be economically secure but they are sinking a tremendous amount of money out of our economy. i’d just like to know what’s behind it.

thank you - and just to clear things up, my goal is to learn, not offend
