Walmart, at least those currently at it’s helm, have forgotten that any purchase must have value or the amount spent on the item is wasted money. What good is produce at the lowest price and you have to toss half of it out because it’s bruised, rotten and inedible? I would rather spend a little more on foodstuffs that are of good quality and don’t require half of the just purchased goods to be tossed out. What good is a $15 pair of pants(just used as comparison) that falls apart after a few washings and wearings? I would rather spend $20 or $25 and get a pair that is better made and will last. I remember growing up, the ‘Made in China’ label was the last thing any kid wanted to see on either their clothes or toys. Chinese stuff was and still is junk.

I don’t buy my produce at Walmart because it is too expensive, but it is high quality, surpassing my local Albertson’s where the prices are astronomical, I buy my vegetables at a Middle Eastern market where the prices are cheap, but with lower grade produce.

I buy my jeans at Walmart, the auto batteries are good there, I love most of their food prices and can stock up at a half to a third of many of the prices at Albertson’s on the same brands.

Not everything made in China is low quality, if you ever get into high quality flashlights for instance, you will be buying Chinese.

All stores sell the same stuff in most cases, from the same countries.
