A SIGN OF THE TIMES Costco announced that it will start accepting food stamps at its warehouse clubs nationwide. Quite a change for the retailer that enjoyed the allure of exclusivity for shoppers not afraid to walk out the door with sales receipts usually in the hundreds of dollars or more per visit! By Thanksgiving, people will be able to spend food stamps in any Costco across the country. I would view this as a sign of our hard economic times to be sure. Food stamp use has hit a record 36 million to date. We are witnessing a very unique era in our country. I think we will get through to a time of relative prosperity and balance again sooner than later. Watching the story of our economy, health care rights, and the housing market is a full time job with the changes that take place daily!
