Wal-Mart Loses!

9.11.2008

We got word last night that the Wal-Mart going in a Salt Lake City neighborhood (Parley's Way) did NOT get approval for a re-zone to put in a SUPER Wal-Mart. All thanks to letters written and protests voiced! The little guys win! So there you have it folks...we CAN make a difference. Thanks to Holly Jo and Hasenpfeffer for going to the meeting to represent all of us!

The photo above is of our "Shop Outside the Box Parade" we put on in downtown SLC last fall. Good times indeed. We need more parades.

YAY!!!!! That makes me soooooooo happy! SOOOOO glad! I'm having to watch a Wal-Mart go up right now in my community when we already have 2 within 10 miles. I LOVE parades! I'm so proud to know someone who was in a "Shop Outside The Box" parade. I LOVE it!!! I need to get my buns out to do some good now. Ha ha!

HOORAY!!!! I was so freaked out and then I got the text that the planning commission actually defeated it! The normally profoundly lame SLC planning commission. In your collective face, Wal-Mart!!!
