1. Then they go on the list.
Corporations that stab us in the back do not deserve our money.

5. don't cry, your next mission is already assigned.
besides, target is small fry, shop there if no choice between them and wal-mart exists.

your new targets are Fed Ex and UPS, read my newest post.

3. damn, I was just looking at Target.com
for a food processor. How about KMart? Are they donators, too? I don't shop at these superstores much, but I am not exactly rich and there are times when I really don't have any other choice money-wise.

BTW, any recommendations on a food processor?

4. Does Kitchen Aid make food processors?
I love their products. I don't know if they are on our list or not, but if they aren't I understand Kohl's is affordable.

I checked them a few years ago & they were about evenly split. I guess they go in the junk heap with Walmart now. :(

There's some really good news there, too:

Gap Inc $237,085 61% Dem 38% Rep

Costco Companies $200,303 98% Dem 2% Rep

Barnes & Noble $103,350 98% Dem 2% Rep

Bed Bath & Beyond $82,500 93% Dem 7% Rep

And some more:

Estee Lauder Companies $123,860 91% Dem 9% Rep

Hard Rock Cafe International $63,750 100% Dem 0% Rep

Sonic Corp $44,920 100% Dem 0% Rep

E&J Gallo Winery $217,090 93% Dem 7% Rep

Anne Klein Inc $66,100 100% Dem 0% Rep
