Word on the street - How is the recession impacting you?

“We just bought a mattress and it was cheaper.”

“There is a possibility my wife may be laid off. And I have a son who is going to college next year so I don’t know how our finances are going to work out.”

“It’s impacted the business I’m in. My customers are purchasing less than they have in the past.”

“Being as we own the Steptoe Friendly Mart, pretty bad. Business is slow. It’s hard to make ends meet. We also farm and it’s hard to make ends meet. Costs have been going up.”

“I haven’t paid any attention to it.”
