WalMart Info

If you shop Walmart for only the cheaper products, then you will save money. But, it's best to get your other groceries at other stores. At Walmart, it is the price at the register that counts, not the price at the counter. There's a little box at the cash register, which shows you the price of the item , when it's scanned. You have seconds to decide if you want the item at that price. There is a Pennsylvania lady, Mary Bach ( Look her up), who has successfully sued Walmart for overcharging her 2 cents on her fish sticks. The price at the register was 2 cents higher than at the counter. She sued 5 times and won 5 times. Walmart changed their policy, so it's the price at the register that you will be charged. NOT the price on the counter. Some estimate that 1 out of every 10 items has a higher register price than the counter price. If you notice the price difference, the clerk will give you the items at the counter price. But how many of use even look at that cash register price box/

My local Walmart has a few scanners scattered around, strapped to pillars in the aisles, so you can do a price check on individual items before you get to the register. I use them when I'm unsure about the price.
 

We have a great Walmart here in Friendswood, Tx. Never had a problem with prices ringing correctly and I check my tape before leaving the store. They have the best chicken salad and broccoli salad that I buy by the lb. and make sandwiches for lunch. There is also a McDonalds in the store which is nice if I want to splurge for something.

Wally World is also where I made the determination that Great Big Ol' Gals have no business whatsoever wearing yoga pants out in public......I'll let your imaginations take it from there.
 

Maybe there should be a group here.....we could call it WA (Walmart Anonymous) for those of us who actually like to shop at Walmart (but then it wouldn't particularly be anonymous, would it?)

I save an incredible amount of money on my over-the-counter meds as the Walmart brand is usually identical to the "Brand" brand.

The produce at my Walmart is usually every bit as good as the produce at Publix at about 60% of the price. And if it isn't, I don't buy it. If I've bought it and it doesn't live up to my expectations, I bring it back. Except for the fact that it is, admittedly, hard to find a clerk, I've never had any problems with customer service either. Long lines? Yeah, there are usually long lines if you shop at prime times, but there are long lines anywhere. I don't like the long lines at Publix or Aldi, either.

Walmart sells the same cosmetics as Walgreens and CVS, cheaper. Walmart sells the same men's underwear as Kohls...cheaper. Walmart sells the same toys for the grandkids as Kids R Us....a WHOLE lot cheaper.

When I win the lottery big or marry rich, I'll start having my personal assistant do my shopping for me....wherever she wants. Until then, it's Walmart for me.

Now, let's recite the creed and have some coffee.....from Walmart, of course.
 
Here in Britain Walmart trade as ASDA and I find my weekly shop is around ÂŁ20 a week cheaper than at their major rivals.They are very popular.Customer service is excellent by the way.

Another happy Walmart shopper here. I don't expect it to be Central Market quality, but the superstore near my house is big, clean and I never have problems with lines or finding anything.
Prices are good, and I always use the savings catcher program on their website for more savings.
 
I live equal distance between a Kroger(Ralph's) and Walmart. Some things I want can't be found at Walmart and vice versa for Kroger. Even with the Kroger card, Walmart is cheaper so the bulk of items purchased are at Walmart. Other than that... Kroger must have a dress code. lol!
