The philosophy of Jackson Star in Gilford, and then in Meredith was screw over a captive population with high prices for as long as they could get away with it. They never fit in up here.....they did nothing but take advantage of the local population.
I also agree and have posted such in the past. My favorite story is this past summer when I bought a watermelon at Shaw's in my hometown for $3.99 and and then a few days later we were on our way up to the lake and I realized I had forgotten the watermelon at home so stopped into Jackson Star to pick one up. Well the Jackson Star watermelon was $7.99...needless to say we went without! Ridiculous!!
