Family Dollar, and the .99 cent stores are now pricing over Walmart prices. Screw them, they are taking advantage of the situation and price gouging.

And here is why... They bid on inferior or bad or almost going bad product by expiration date, or because of off sized product for a normal standard for produce and such. Goods from truck wrecks and such. The stuff other retailers just will not buy.

There is absolutely no reason why what they offer should be higher than Walmart who offers the better dated better produce for less that Walmart.

So except for a couple items, Walmart is actually cheaper over all. Especially for canned goods and fresh produce you would like to have a better shelf life.

Gimmicks and scams, starting with the name of the store...

For most, and are regards online shopping it usually far far cheaper than Amazon, but at least they have far more variety and it is in stock. Out of stock is often a feature a Walmart. However, most of the items I used to get delivered for free no longer are available for free shipping with a $45 order, and thus I used a free trial for home delivery last time.
