Re: Sonic Switches To Crinkle Cut Fries
Well, since Sonic and Arby’s are corporate cousins now, I wonder if they’re using the same fries?

Re: Store Evacuations
Many retailers expect them to share earpieces and sanitize between uses. I would not do this and always just ordered my own.

And most areas seemed l...

Re: Burlington closing Carson City, NV location
Hobby Lobby will do great in this location. It will probably be the end for the Jo Ann in Carson though. And I'm not sure if the Michaels will survive either in their current location.

Re: Rubys "Shake Shack" opening in Reno
There is construction in Reno on North Virginia between the 7-11 and Raising Canes. There is a coming soon Ruby's sign with the logo of the SoCal chain, and a permit that says this will be "Rubys Shake Shack." This is near a bunch of miserably institutional looking student housing. This s...
