Hey Everybody!
We now have a new section, THE FORUM SUPPORT SHOPPING MALL. http://www.wilderness-survival.net/f...splay.php?f=23
By clicking on the links in the various mall threads, you can enjoy shopping discounts when you make purchases on-line, and financially support the Forum at the same time.
For all of us who shop on-line, I encourage everyone to check the Forum Shopping Mall first. What better way can you think of to support the Forum in the future?
You could ridicule me if you'd like.Quote:

And my reality also. I have this silly streak. When I am treated right , I return loyalty, if it includes what is suggested here, so be it.
I put it up because Ken asked for a way to help the forum. No one is obligated to use it, and it doesn't cost you anything if you do. If you're going to do shopping anyways, do it through there, and booya.
I'll add a few dozen merchants over the next week or so to flesh it out.
Not enough, Remy. Not enough. :innocent:Quote:

Crash, let's start with you...how much do you make ?
Ken ? How much did you make last year ?
I like Crash's response.
I made a couple of paracord belts. Dozens of bracelets. Several shelters. A mountain of trips to town. Several friends. One enemy (but he's a grouch anyway). The list goes on and on. I guess I made a LOT last year.
$3480. Not including the $.12 an hour while in Texas, but I didn't get a W2 for that.
Does participating, contributing, thinking, changing, growing, learning, talking, making friends...or not pay your light bill?
In my world Talk is cheap Money feeds the kids. That is my reality.
Are you drinking coffee again tonight? You know what that does to you. Not only do you get all cranky in your posting but you'll be up half the night.
What could you possibly dislike about that response?Quote:

Sir< with respect > I ain't your baby. I happen to married, to a woman. Thank you for the offer tho.
And yeah if I need something from Wal-Mart for my family I will order it thru the site if possible. See the thing is, I feel like some of the folks on here are worth supporting.
It's been my experience the only people to rant about how others spend their money are those who have more than they need and still want mine.
I'm not suggesting that anyone buy a damn thing they don't need or weren't otherwise going to buy on-line. What I AM suggesting is that if you ARE going to purchase on-line, you do it via a Forum link.Quote:

That reminds me of how my kids must sometimes think that the act of flipping a switch is the only "cost" associated with running a television, an air conditioner, a lamp, you name it. For most folks, economics is only an issue when they are the one paying for something. I like to contribute. We now have a way to do so which will effectively costs us nothing more than accessing sites via the Forum. Kinda' like flipping that light switch when you were a kid ........
Name calling? Really?
well, It pretty much sums up my financial situation. I made enough last year to do the things i need to do, - pay my bills, upkeep on the car, eat well. I made enough last year to do some of the things i wanted to do, - picked up some camping/fishing gear, went on a couple of weekend to weekend camping trips. I didn't make enough money to do what I dream of, which is buying property and building myself a home. So I am still chucking money away for that, a little bit at a time. I make enough money to get buy and still find myself happy with my chosen lifestyle. I don't spend a lot, I outgrew the consumerism mentality that i went through in college and young adulthood.Quote:

Simple.
If you don't like the stores offered, offer some of your own.
<But Walmart? Online? Pay shipping? Dunno 'bout that...>
Though I'd much rather buy the T-shirt or something...
There's alot of stuff on their site that isn't sold in stores. If I pick it up at my local store there is no shipping. It benefits me. I'm not trying to persuade anyone else.
Lot's of place will ship to the nearest store free of charge.
Ya, we just had a crib done through walmart online with no shipping, of course had to wait 30 minutes in the back of the store for someone who "knew how" to finalize the transaction.
Well I wont be inheiriting any land, and it doesnt come free, so in my neck of the woods, if I want to own land up in the back end of nowhere, I have to buy it. I am working toward my goal, my wishes, my dreams. Believe me or not, it's your choice, and our right as American citizens to believe what we wish to, and to dream what we wish to. As far as my chosen lifestyle, no I have never done any of the things you had mentioned. (sorry, I can't remember what the thread was titled) But I will say this much... I do not eat bait!! Caviar is bait, fish bait to be exact. Although if I were trying to trap a Frenchman, then having some around might come in handy. I don't eat slugs in shells (escargot) either. We come from totally different worlds. As long as you are happy in yours, and I in mine, then who cares what the individual sees as wealth? How much I make works for me, I assume your wages work for you. I am happy in my small corner of the world. Are you happy in yours? If so, then I am happy you are happy.
