I appreciate the honest reply, and I hope I didn’t come across as condescending in my last post as it was not meant to be an attack, but more of a “huh?” statement. All of those are valid concerns, but I would argue that while not perfect, they’re a much better version of Sam’s/Walmart/Target, and their bulk goods offering doesn’t put them in direct competition with smaller mom and pop stores due to consumers not being able to get quantities/brands that they always want. It’s also very supportive to markets like local restaurants and stores that don’t have built in supply chains that may not want to shop at conglomerate supply stores.

Short version, I don’t necessarily agree with you, but I appreciate your perspective and the well thought out response.

This was a very healthy discourse, I just want to say good work to both parties.

You both have different opinions, were able to discuss them civily, and didn’t resort to name calling. Well done.
