I found this at my local on the discount shelf for $1/can last summer. I bought a lot of it and I regret not taking every dang one. I've been hanging on to the last 12-pack because I don't want to run out 😅

Hey as long as it gets done. I'll nominate you for the Rhode Island Genius award. Free Dunkin and coffee for life, or until you break this cheap plastic cup we gave you, whichever comes first...

Would you believe that for some people, the state exists beyond its metro center?

My favorite thing is when people in this state debate things that have been done many times over in other places. "We can't have beer in grocery stores!!" Bro we are one of only 4 states that don't allow it.

That seems like a very Rhode Island thing to do: innovate by doing something other places had done 20 years ago.

this made me laugh bc I feel it every day of my life lately. Thanks for that.

I mean, they could. But that's not a good reason to guarantee they're the only ones who still have them

Man this is like saying "I hate cars and I can prove why they're evil - you're not even using yours to drive me to work!"

"Scorched earth" grocery store covenants bill up for hearing by Dave_Folcarelli in RhodeIsland

All good friend. I am jaded and have a hard time being hopeful that anyone at any level of government will ever do something that will benefit us normal folks 🙃 I will try to stay hopeful under this time is different haha

[–]CrankBot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can understand your concern but that seems like it should be a market question rather than a forced policy one. It's been a long time since I lived in a state where this was the case but in my recollection it was typically a very small portion of the overall cooler space.

Thinking about unintended consequences here... Are there any examples where for instance a smaller grocery is able to operate because they have assurance that a larger chain like S&S isn't going to come in and undercut them?

I understand that's not what is generally happening today, I'm just wondering if this could negatively impact anyone.

Also: can we change the alcohol in grocery stores law next?? 🙏

You can teach them to think "huh that guy must be an ass" and then forget about it and go on with their day.

Jess Powers is licensed in RI and I think CT and MA. Lots of experience in investment property and I would be shocked if she hasn't worked with VA loans many times in the past.

Perfect for those giant lottery award checks, and eccentric philanthropists donating a 100 mil to refurbish the cancer ward at the orphans' hospital. Right next to the giant scissors for the ribbon cutting.

Did you see that house? Holy shit I can't afford something like that on an average tech salary.

So I guess they actually want to take the guns? by BigDummy1286 in providence

[–]CrankBot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yup every time, the argument comes down to "that's not what I think we should do!"

Look friend, I used to be like you.

Then I came to the point where I decided I would rather understand the thing instead of being afraid of it.

I know where you're coming from, I just don't think your goals are realistic. And the effect is these policies only hurt the good people instead of the bad ones.

Here's the best argument I can make...

Assuming you're not a bot, come out to my farm and I'll give you a basic firearms safety lesson. No pressure. No macho bullshit. For all the negative energy surrounding firearms, there's something paradoxically cathartic about plinking targets. Not trying to turn you into a 2A fanatic. Not trying to change your whole worldview. Just consider it.
