As I said, it was quite a while ago, but I remember that when I lived there the major player in grocery supermarkets was the Pueblo chain.quote:Originally posted by Hildur:Walmart/Costco dominates the market here. They must have bought up other food chains like Amigos and Famcoop because both those chains use Walmart self checkout/payment processing machines and there's a lot of the same brands found at Walmart that can be had in those stores. Today I think I saw someone in Amigos wearing a Walmart vest.quote:Originally posted by V-Tail:

This. I recently bought a Braun electric shaver. The English instructions were 8 pages long. They were duplicated into 13 other languages and 125 pages. I often remove the non-English pages of manuals since I don't want or need them.quote:Originally posted by PASig:
