Exactly correct! Most individuals who work for companies rather than owning a business, seem to have trouble grasping this concept. Unfortunately for the individual mom and pop store who actually keep the money they make in our local communities, people tend to look for price. So they spend their money at academy and Walmart so these stores can send the money offshore and hire cheap labor to produce more goods at lower prices. The whole process is a suicide of sorts but what the heck? We saved a couple bucks! Who cares if it eventually works its way back around to bite us in the rump.
I think that is a fair point and at that price, if you really want .22 well then you can get some. But these mom and pop type places also need to treat their customers well and my experience with Carter's Country was anything but. When I was EDC shopping, I stopped off at Carter's and the salesman didn't want to give me the time of day. My guess is it was based upon my age because he was all too willing to help out many of the older folks. There's no reason to pay high prices for bad service.
