Here is what I wrote last fall about shopping at big box stores as a conservation practice. One stop shopping vs running around, one stop distribution for big trucks delivering goods vs running around to many small ones. Not as pleasant shopping experience but energy savers imo.. It is just the way it is as the grab for the btus gets more intense because of more grabbers..

I wish places like Walmart were better corporate citizens but yesterday I went there instead of driving another 5 miles to get lawn cloth which I couldn't carry on a bicycle up a long hill for about 8 miles. BTW, I am taking out a big portion lawn for xeroscape, another energy saver :) which I need under the rocks to be laid rather than use soil poisoner to keep the weeds down..
