This week in personal finance class we started off the week by getting new jobs. you either got a new job for one of the new businesses coming to Weaservill or you could have kept your old job. or unfortunately for some people because of the new jobs coming in lost their old ones. Only to get a new one later in the week. 
Later in the week we were broken up into two groups people who where for a Walmart coming to Weaservill and those opposed to it. We had a town council  meeting to discuss the benefits and downfalls of a Walmart. It was a long back and forth discussion and after doing some negotiating with Walmart the town council voted on bringing in a Walmart to the town of Weaservill. I agree with this decision even though it is getting rid of  the dandy mini mart we are gaining a larger well known store with out people losing their jobs.

  1. What a fun week it was! It was difficult to watch myself and a few others lose their job but I was overjoyed that we are getting a Walmart! It will be so great for everyone! It is more convenient to purchase all our needs and wants and we do not have to drive 2 hours to the other one! It really is a blessing in disguise and I cannot wait to see what greatness this decision will bring!
