Winn Dixie has done enough in the last 20 years to destroy, rebuild partially, and destroy their brand time and time again.

Posted by Tarps99 on 5/17/24 at 7:26 am
Maybe people don’t want to spend 5 dollars on a cup of coffee, when they can buy a bag of coffee for the same price.
Also, they may have diluted their brand by having and selling the raw Starbucks coffee ingredients everywhere.
Again so why go to a fancy coffee shop when I can do the same at h...

re: Nyx officially eliminated as a parade by New Orleans City Council
Posted by Tarps99 on 5/17/24 at 5:00 am
Move the parade to another area.
On a side note, Terrebonne is looking to make parades longer with up to now 45 floats and a minimum of 10, in case Hercules gets any larger. I think this year they were right at the max. With 10 more floats Hercules will be the first parade that rolls all night lo...

This is one.
No more of an open check book for unlimited student loans.
Loans should be tied to value of the degree received and potential future earnings.
