I do not care if they change their policies. I do not care if they sell satanic crap OR if they change their policy to stop selling satanic crap. I am not trying to get them to change their behavior.
I am simply not going to shop at Target.
This is the same policy I have for the Adult Pleasures Superstore, Petsmart, Slumberland, Hobby Lobby, Walgreens, Lowe's, Dick's Sporting Goods, Bath and Body, and Krogers.
I do not shop at these stores either.
Crap. What did Lpwes do?
Who says they have to "do" anything?
Marketing 101 Customers are fickle. Brand loyalty is like gold.
For me, Home Depot and Menards are local. Lowes is not. I have "heard" that Lowes caters to women who don't know how to do stuff. True? IDK. But, that doesn't sound like a place for me. My "impression" is that it is going to be cheap and plasticy.
Now, in all fairness to Lowes, I should verify this info, but, is it going to make a material difference? No, it won't. I will still shop locally at Menards and Home Depot. So, I won't bother. I might be totally wrong. I can live with that.
See, fickle reasoning. Menards and Home Depot just happen to be close AND I have had many good experiences there.
Lowes has to overcome my negative impressions of them and get me to not shop local in order for me to shop at their store.
How is Home Depot a "local" store? It's a big corporation with big box stores all over the place.
"The Home Depot, Inc., often simply referred to as Home Depot, is an American multinational home improvement retail corporation that sells tools, construction products, appliances, and services, including fuel and transportation rentals. Home Depot is the largest home improvement retailer in the United States." - Wikipedia
It's even bigger than Lowe's. You aren't shopping locally by shopping at the largest home improvement corporation in the country.
Menards isn't really local either, unless you're in Wisconsin. They have over 350 stores.
Even though Lowe's is number two in the field, they are more local to me than Home Depot and Menards, as their headquarters is in my state of NC.
So three stores are running neck and neck as the top three largest home improvement stores, and you pick one and say it's not local, but claim the other two are, when there's really zero difference.
We are using the term "local" differently.
We have Menards and Home Depot in my town. Both are less than 5 miles from my house - they are local.
The closest Lowes is about 20-25 miles away.
You are correct in saying that all three are big box stores. Wasn't trying to imply the these are mom and pop stores.
