Here are five special photos that readers added to The Consumerist Flickr Pool this week, chosen because they’re both neat and could possibly be used in a Consumerist post. Our Flickr Pool is the place where Consumerist readers go and upload photos for possible use in future Consumerist posts. Just be a registered Flickr user, go here, and click “Join Group?” up on the top right, and start hitting “send to group” on your individual photos you want to add to the pool.
Title: “Resume Builder”

Caption: “I feel this is sort of a portrait of me right now – this smattering of meds has really changed me lately – more internally than externally i feel. Some of these i take daily, some are no longer used, some are taken as needed. Anti-psychotics, anticonvulsants, benzos, allergy meds, stomach meds, mood stabilizers, acid reducers, ibuprofen, naproxen, etc.”

Add your shots to The Consumerist Flickr pool, and perhaps they’ll get featured in a future story, or even highlighted in a Friday Consumerist Flickr Pool Finds post.
I love the Wal-Mart with the ominous clouds overhead. See, even mother nature hates them!
I like the Bernd and Hilla Becher rip off.
The dark clouds is definitely the funniest. Reminds me of LOTR a little.
I love the “Another Day” picture, someone has a good eye
For the last photo, I think you can refer to last weeks photo and say:Mother nature warned Wal-Mart it would be next, but did Wal-Mart listen? Noooooo.

@Teradoc: I like it to. To me, it screams “Jackie Chan fell on hard times after Chris Tucker stopped returning his calls.”
The second one looks like my medicine cabinet.
Might want to blur the addresses on the Walgreens bottles there.
Well now we know the picture submitter of the pills lives in Albuquerque.
Joe’s Ginger in Chinatown (NY) is really good. He’s the brother of the owner of Joe’s Shanghai, which probably makes one of the best steamed dumplings I’ve ever had.
@theblackdog: And he goes to two different Walgreens.
One at:3501 Lomas Blvd NE, Albuquerque, NM 87106
and one at:
9700 Menaul Boulevard Northeast, Albuquerque, NM 87112
But what is really great is from just the picture, I can see the pill description on the sides of the pill bottles that, if read, would reduce at least 2 stories a month from Consumerist. After a quick google search, I can tell you the white bottle in the center contains:Hyoscyamine Sulfate 0.125 mg
I like that “FU” is scraped in the concrete in the “Another Day” photo… LOL
Also, that Walmart picture is awesome.
is that “another day” one in San Francisco?
Unemployed artist? Isn’t that redundant?
I would love to have the Wal-Mart one blown up to poster size and hang it in the office I don’t yet have.
