I loved this billboard, discovered in Portland. I continue to be amazed at the ease of American shopping - no carts to purchase and everyone is always so helpful at the till. We still haven't found that we need to pay deposits on any cans purchased and at least Oregon has facilities to recycle them. The thing that I've found most amazing is at the Jantzen Centre in Portland, the stores were absolutely empty. Has America shopped itself to death? For groceries, I've been frequenting Fred Meyers who has stores throughout Oregon now. In 1965, I remember being shocked that he was open all day, all year long. His stores are big and clean and actually pretty appealing now that I've become part of the Big Box Generation. I'm still seeing lots of heavy Americans enjoying shopping at the grocery store. Will this billboard ever make a difference?
