    I like my gadgets but I will be darn if I would stand in line for them. I won't even go to that Walmart in Elkton, MD (Rt. 40) because of the parking lot. If I have to park in bum f egypt to get to Walmart, they aren't getting my business. That place is always so jammed packed. I would rather go to the one in North East.

    You can have no money and still be greedy.

    greed n. An excessive desire to acquire or possess more than what one needs or deserves, especially with respect to material wealth
    You make a very good point. Money certainly contributes to greed but people decide for themselves if they are greedy or not.

    Well said. Money can either make you or break you. Sure it is nice to have but how you use it is entirely up to you. If you choose to look down on people who are less fortunate then thats when you need to take a step back and see what else is out there in life besides just money. You would be surprised what you might find.

    I can never understand why any business is willing to jeopardize the safety of their customers, workers, and law enforcement that must respond to their store just so they can get a few extra sales on the latest technology toy that hits the shelves.
    Money/profits.
