I can't believe you haven't added WalFart, Target, Sears and KFart to that list.

Of YOUR list, I have only been in Sears. They didn't make my list because I don't go there, and I only go to Sears to exchange or buy tools.
I have a propane heater that I LOVE. It was built by Ashley. The 'replacement' went back Sunday afternoon and the 'replacement for the replacement' has a 'SOLD' sign on it at Southern States.
It is a U.S Stoves version of the old 'Cabose' stoves that the railroad used for 100 years.
It is a little bit larger than the 'pot belly' that is in my kitchen!
I am sure that the latest 'choice' will be FAR better than what they tried to sell me!

I had the only 'hot coffee and scrambled eggs' in the neighborhood when the last 'Power-Outage' hit the 'hood'.
We had a guy camping on our couch that had walked a mile to get here!

I would rather 'hunt and gather' firewood than be at the mercy of the oil and/or electric companies, when it comes to providing HEAT to the family!
