Today's Michael Berry's show is sponsored by Oshon.

Oshon is a large supermarket department store hybrid based out of the European country of La France.

That's France to you and me, you know, home of Gerard de Pardue and Pepe La Pue.

They had locations in Houston from 1988 all the way up until 2003.

They left the American market when American politicians wanted to rename the store Freedom Express

and the lead up to the Iraqi War.

Well, that part's not true at all, but it sounds better than telling you that they just couldn't

compete with the Walmart Supercenter. But that's what happened. Speaking of Walmart Supercenter,

did you know that Sam Walton got the idea for his Super Walmart stores after visiting an Oshon

location? He walked up to the store president and said, hey, I'm Sam Walton, of Walmart,

and he asked if he could come back the next day and look around, Dan permission was granted.

The next day, Sam returned with Walmart executives and a camera.

That was the very moment that the American Oshon was killed.

Oh, it took a while to die, sure, but that was the fatal blow.

Experience the excitement of Oshon, the store that has almost everything under one roof,

including low, low prices on your favorite brands.

Now through July 4th, Dr. Pepper or Pepsi 12 packs only $1.79.

Trap a can of pure premium, I used $1.79. Blue Ribbon smoked sausage links two for $3.

Mind a refrigerator fountain or some tea jar $2.79.

Everything you need and most everything you want, only Oshon.
