Plainfield, Skip Vallee and Dollar General

Anyone that has been through Plainfield in the last decade will remember the Red Store, a nice country store that had cheap gas.

Around the corner was Tim’s, newer and shinier.

Today, the Red Store is no more, and Skip Vallee bought Tim’s and remade it in His image.  But Skip bought the Red Store, too. He was trying to rent it out to anyone that promised to NOT start a convenience/gas store – because Republicans HATE competition.

Well, just today I heard that Skip Vallee is eager to sell or lease the Red Store property to Vermont’s latest invasive species, Dollar General!

Dollar General is (OK, OK, ‘might be’) coming to Plainfield!
