No, I was referring to the German thread about the 31 hp thing, but I mixed him up with that guy down there, using the same handle (doc).
I havenīt noticed yet there were strikes over here against Wal Mart wages (shame on me - doing mostly labour law I shoulda have known).
I used to buy at Wal Mart when it still was Wertkauf (Wertkauf was a German supermarket chain taken over by Wal Mart about two years ago), but itīs not as good anymore since itīs been taken over. I am wondering about the strike since we do have wage agreements so the employees of other suprmarket chains would have been on strike too.
They do have lot of car stuff, but motorcycle stuff is not to be found at German supermarkets (except 50cc scooters, which are sold at Wal Mart too).
What has been puzzling me is that they brought their own brands along. Now everything is labelled "Great Value" - even toilet paper!
I havenīt discovered the great value of their toilet paper yet. Another - smaller - German supermarket chain (Penny) has a more appropriate brand for their toilet paper: "Happy End".
Now THAT makes sense to me!
