The food, makeup, underwear is at "Everyday low prices" but a Wal-Mart "date" could be for free.
Wal-Mart's taking on the role of retail matchmaker to some of its customers.
NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Just when you thought you'd heard it all from the king of discount shopping, Wal-Mart is now pitching itself as the new dating hot spot -- with everyday low prices to boot.

Funny thing.. cute chick was chatting me up yesterday at wal-mart.
I was there for allergy stuff and cough drops as it's that time of year again.
So I've just got stuff to keep me from sneezig my fool head off.
Quick glance in her cart reveals the following inventory of duct tape, lacy bras (4 pair), lacy undies (4 pair), various nylons, two romance novels, and a pack of ribbed trojies.
Somehow, my allergies suddenly seemed the least of concerns.

The best place to meet women is your local weekly meeting of sex addicts anonymous. Score!

You can tell a lot by a person by what is in their buggy...a super-duper 1000 condom party pack, size 12 faux tiger fur spike heels....
You been peeking in my cart again?

Being that the closest Wal-Mart is 35 minutes away (without traffic), I have no great urge to make a trip for any reason whatsoever. Besides, their quality s-cks, and their prices are not as great as people say they are.
I should also add that I have not been in a Wal-Mart in 5 years, nor have I been in a McDonald's in 10 years.

Actually, I believe you can buy coffins at some Sam's Clubs.

"On Friday nights, singles looking for romance, mindless flirting or just a new friend head over to their neighborhood Wal-Mart where they're given a big bright red bow to attach to their shopping cart or shopping basket." No thanks.

Hmmm...volume purchasing of women.

"You do not shop at the same Wal-Mart I do..." The fun "people-watching" begins after midnight at my local Wal-Mart. I think there's some sort of bell that rings or maybe a National Weather Service alarm.
6:00 - 8:00pm is safe, but you have to be gone by 11:59pm. Trust me.

I've often heard people complain that Walmart is trying to take over the world. It might just be true!

Maybe in your area. Here is depends on the time of day, but most of the women are married. All the looker moms are out in the mornings doing their shopping when the masses are out at work. At night, your assessment is pretty much right on.
