I told you Carrefour was crazy.

If you've been following this blog for a while, you might recall that I posted some pictures of Carrefour, our local superstore. I think I described it as "Wal-Mart on steroids." Well, the chain made the news this week.


Nov. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Four people were trampled to death and 31 were injured in a promotional event at a supermarket owned by Carrefour SA in the Shapingba district of China's western Chongqing city.


You can read the story here. It would be interesting to know what the "promotional event" was for. Probably a big sale on chicken feet.
