I was down at K-Mart this morning and saw M1 on sale for $4 per qt. They had 0-30,5-30,10-30,and 15-50.

If M1 is your brand, sounds like a deal to me. (Wonder which vintage it is...if it has the Nascar logo on it, it's the latest stuff.) [ October 02, 2003, 05:25 PM: Message edited by: pscholte ]

Wonder if that isn't how it is "intended" to play out?

Kmart went out of business up here in Canada in 1997. I lost a job because of that, I worked at a prepress shop who did their flyer, and the loss of it cost us $1 million in business, and 50% of the 150 employees were laid off shortly after that. I had worked there over 7 years. On the up side, I ended up bouncing around to 2 other shops, learned some new skills, and ended up working at the best place of all, at a much higher wage, and on 9-5 instead of afternoon shift.

Zellers simply bought out a lot of the old Kmart stores, but they moved their stuff into it. I believe they offered jobs to a lot of old Kmart people. But someone else already had the Zellers flyer account. Strangely enough, one of the places I went to after getting laid off was the one who had that account! I ended up getting laid off there too, since Zellers went from giving us 500 images a week to scan, down to about 10.
