MILWAUKEE – The world's largest retailer wants to keep its customers even after they die.
Wal-Mart has started selling caskets on its Web site at prices that undercut many funeral homes, long the major seller of caskets.
The move follows a similar one by discount rival Costco, which also sells caskets on its site.
Wal-Mart, based in Bentonville, Ark., quietly put up about 15 caskets and dozens of urns on its Web site last week. Prices range from $999 for models like "Dad Remembered" and "Mom Remembered" steel caskets to the mid-level $1,699 "Executive Privilege." All are less than $2,000, except for the Sienna Bronze Casket, which sells for $3,199.

Reminds me of the old Night Court episode and "Herb Tea."
True, but you have a great Halloween decoration on hand.
Guess it depends on how many episodes it will take. The urn should be knocked out in one episode with the lathe he has.
I have grave concerns about this idea.
So you can be an armed zombie?
Death certificates ...issued only by undertakers!!!?
That’s a medical document, signed by the attending physician, certifying the proximate cause of death, with legal consequences depending upon the cause of death!
The undertakers only process dead human remains for burial. By what means do they determine how somebody died?
Coffee table or ottoman including storage.
Take an additional 15% off all Halloween items that you can stuff into a casket!
Psychological bummerware. Kids can pretend to be dead in it for years. The Adam's family would pay top dollar for it.
May your wish be granted!
