Not the consumer tool I used to be

Just got back from being woefully under-impressed with the opening of Stripling's at the corner of State Route 53 and Highway 78. Maybe their sausage is really all that, but even the namesake owner seemed to have no clue when I asked if they had back bacon.  We did not even get to pea-meal bacon or Iowa chops or pork cutlets.  Nope, this store is really an overpriced redneck convenience store with an alleged butcher and smokehouse on site. It is nice to have a real meat store in Oconee County, and I did buy some of their smoked bacon, so I will give it a second chance, and the owner did apologize, but geez, no Canadian bacon at all? Also, when you are opening, have some samples for  the people who have never been to any of your other stores. I welcome them to T's crossing and I predict an uptick in the weights of future lineman for North Oconee and Prince Avenue's football teams. Also I then visited the Publix to find the Atlanta Falcons fan oriented sales force
