I'd send them a letter and shop elsewhere. Your 1 letter may never do anything. Or it may do something.

One of the anti sites has a nice, if incomplete list of stores that are posting signs.
I picked out the one's that I have done business with in the past - and will not in the future

Bonefish Grill
Buffalo Wild Wings
T.G.I. Friday’s
Chevron
CostCo
Goodyear
Half-Price Books
24-Hour Fitness
Hooter’s
IKEA
Jack In the Box
Jared’s & Kay Jewelry
Jason’s deli
Square
Tom Thumb
Toys R Us
El Fenix
StoneBriar Center mall
Grapevine Mills mall

I am going to verify these at stores local to me. The only one of these that I trade with regularly is Costco. If that is posted, I am going to drop my membership and then go see if Sam's is posted.

Which sign are these posting? I hope a couple of them are just 30.06 signs.

I thought Grapevine Mills took theirs down or said the are going to.

A number of these are already 30.06 posted (Jared, IKEA), incorrectly posted (BWW, Toys R Us). Grapevine Mills Mall is wrong. They took theirs down. Tom Thumb isn't posted yet and I don't think they will. Others MAYBE will put up 30.07, but I doubt they'll get around to it. This looks more like an anti wish list to me.

I'm surprised they didn't claim Target and Starbucks also.

That list is only 30.06. The site also listed 30.07 but i don't care about that.
I added Grapevine Mills because it wasn't on their list and I thought it was an omission.
Glad to hear they took the signs down, and surprised i did not know. I wonder what prompted that?

After reading this post, I went to as many as I could that are in my town (Garland) this morning to see what if any are posted. Went to all three Tom Thumbs and none were posted either 30.06 or 30.07, went to 4 different Jack in the Boxes and none were posted either at all, went by two different Chevron's and neither were posted with anything. Already knew Half-Price Books was posted with both, as well as Kay's Jewelry and 24 hour Fitness. Didn't make it by TGIFridays or Goodyear to check. They are building a Hooter's by Bass Pro Shop, but it is a month or two from opening. None of the others on this list are in Garland. I'm hoping the Jason's Deli in Rowlett that I go to at least twice a month isn't posted 30.06 now, it wasn't ever before. This may be the one place I regrettably disarm to go to if it is. :cryin

Good list from my perspective.....with the exception of HPB, which is now on my no go list, most of those businesses either don't exist in my area or I'd already stopped doing business with them....or never was interested in doing business with them in the first place.
