Consumers have long been warned they were going to be pushed to the “point of pain” in order to curtail their spending. It seems like we’ve finally reached it.

I was just in there for oil and a filter to change my cars oil, largely because it was cheaper than going somewhere and was I broke at the time. I’ve shopped at Aldi for years mostly because their food is much cheaper for comparable items, and despite being to several that were very sketchy, I’ve never had someone walk up to me and beg in a store. Parking lots are a different matter, but in pretty much every Walmart I’ve been to over the last couple of years (again, I basically try to not now that I can afford it), the amount of not giving a fuck by everyone involved is kind of extreme. And the prices aren’t even that great now either.
