Yeah, Boycott This

My wife loves to do her grocery shopping at the Wegman's store in Fairmont. She has shopped there for over 35 years. I used to made jokes about her frequent visits to her boyfriend in the produce section. Yup, three or four times a week.

It is one of the cleanest, well stocked grocery stores in the nation. The staff are courteous, helpful and friendly. Since Costco moved in it also stocks large quantity items like cereal, paper products, etc. And it's prices are pretty good. In fact, it has been listed as the best grocery store in America. And with a rep like that you don't want to mess with loyal customers.

It also stocks Trump wine which pissed off the moonbats who of course called for a boycott.
It didn't work with Wegman's customers, not one bit.

From Breitbart:

A boycott of Trump Winery products sold at Wegmans stores in Virginia appeared to backfire after the wine sold out at stores in the area.

 The grocer said that nine of its Virginia stores sold out of the wine despite efforts to boycott the product and Wegmans stores that sold it, the Democrat and Chronicle reported.

[..]But the boycott has made some shoppers want to go out and buy more Trump Wine products.

“This makes me want to dig in my heels, stand firm and buy Trump wine,” one shopper told USA Today.

As a result of the boycott, all Wegmans stores in Virginia except one sold out of Trump Wine products.

Trump supporters just love rubbing salt in the wound...

Ivanka Trump’s line of women’s fragrances soared to the number one spot on Amazon’s best-seller’s list after retailers chose to stop selling products on their websites or at their brick-and-mortar locations, Breitbart News reported.

Trump should issue a boycott signup list for all his businesses.

A three thousand year old inscription on a clay pottery fragment captures some of the countless bureaucratic efforts behind building an empire.

An ancient eight-letter inscription — dating back to King Solomon’s reign in Jerusalem some 3,000 years ago — was deciphered by a researcher from the University of Haifa, shedding light on the Solomonic kingdom’s impressively sophisticated administrative system.

[...]According to Galil, the first intact letter of the inscription was actually the last letter of a longer word that got cut off and represented the date. The middle portion refers to the type of wine in the jug, a cheap variety. The final letter was also cut off from a longer word, and according to Galil listed the location from which the wine was sent.

Galil estimated that the carving was written in the middle of the tenth century BCE, after King Solomon built the First Temple, his palaces, and the surrounding walls that unified the three areas of the city — the Ophel area, the city of David, and the Temple Mount. These tremendous infrastructural projects contributed, Galil said, to the sudden need for copious quantities of poor-quality wine.

The ancients probably referred to it as camel piss.

“The ability to write and store the wine in a large vessel designated for this purpose, while noting the type of wine, the date it was received, and the place it was sent from, attests to the existence of an organized administration that collected taxes, recruited laborers, brought them to Jerusalem, and took care to give them food and water,” Galil said.

“Scribes that could write administrative texts could also write literary and historiographic texts, and this has very important implications for the study of the Bible and understanding the history of Israel in the biblical period.”
