To the editor: Dec. 5 revote on Super Wal-Mart:
Please, please encourage your aldermen-women to vote "NO" Monday
night at 7 to bringing Super Wal-Mart to Lincoln. I will be unable
to attend but really hope our representatives make the right
decision.
While our Lincoln Wal-Mart has a few very good, kind and caring
employees... for the most part, the service received is horrible! I
boycott shopping there for months at a time because of it. The
prices are sky-high compared to other Wal-Mart stores because they
have very little competition here in Lincoln. And when is the last
time your youngster played on a Wal-Mart-sponsored team? They don't
because Wal-Mart doesn't care about this community.

 Let's spend our tax money wisely, not for more of the same.
Why not try to bring Target or Shopko here? We wouldn't need to
shop out of town because we'd have more choices and price
competition.
We need to encourage businesses to Lincoln to provide jobs,
benefits and invest in our community. Wal-Mart just doesn't deserve
it.
