I shop Wal-Mart because it is really the best for product availibility and price. I try to ignore the freaks there and as a rule I never go there after dark, when the real freaks come out to shop. I also never go there during things like Black Friday because I value my life more than getting a $99 flat screen tv. The one thing I can not understand is why they put their slowest 90 year old cashiers on the “Speedy Checkout” registers and then not even enforce the 20 items limit. I also learned to keep a close eye on the price items ring up vs what the price is supposed to be, especially clearanced or reduced items that more often than not ring up at the original higher price.

My local Walmart sells JUMBO eggs for just $1.18 per dozen which is weird because I stopped at another Walmart and they were selling for almost $2 per dozen.

I love going to the 24hr wm after 2am. No waiting, enough employees to point me where anything is. No crowd.

And awesome wildlife :)

Can’t afford to not shop at Walmart for some items like milk which is $1 per gallon cheaper than anywhere else. Loss leader, obviously. But I only use the self-checkouts which pretty much allows me to bypass all the insanity.

Ship to store has also saved money on things like 3D printing filament where the shipping cost is high vs. the product cost.
