AMEN on Gander being spendie but then aint they all!! Try living on a boat and having west marine as the only place in town to get stuff u need right now. Like impeller for your engine. Yuck
Gander Mountain likes to sell guns over msrp. Sometimes way over. No thanks!!
I kinda like that we don't, that way I am not tempted to run down to the sporting good store and blow 50 bucks.

yup... starting to see that....Fits in well for Corpus.
really?... and when that one store is out-of-stock or you dont like the selection, you gonna have wait till next delivery...
Well the way this city is run is ridiculous. One thing I can think of recently was the whole issue with Whataburger, the city was doing everything they could to screw them while at the same time giving new ventures tax breaks. Then they blame Whataburger for leaving Corpus.
Whataburger did not leave CC, only the corporate office.

Which totally sucks, they have a job opening I'd be interested in, but their offices are no longer half a mile from my house.
Hey at least HEB has some competition now.
Whatburger HQ leaving CC for SA sucked big time..... I dont know what the city council could have done to convince them to stay.... but then again HEB HQ left for SA also back in the 80s.....
Well for one not be inept fools...
But let's be real cc is not the best geographic location for a corporate headquarters. you have to want to be in cc for you to stay.
Personally, from a business aspect I kind of like HEB. They're the only people who really have taken on Walmart head to head, and not left with their tail between their legs. (sure it has been regional but...)
They are also one of the handful of grocers that actually have created product differentiation with their central market branded stores and product branding. They really are innovative when it comes to selling groceries.
Especially in a time where the grocery industry is shrinking.
You are right.... CC is not the best location to have a corporate HQ... Im a fan of HEB also.... HEB has more than held up against Walmart.....even thou Walmart has more square-foot retail space that HEB in town.... I dont know if many people know this, but HEB was selected as Progressive Grocer's 2010 Retailer of the Year on a national level....
