I have no problem with Great Value label items. In many cases the taste is just as good as the brand name and the cost is significantly lower. Their GV potato chips are awesome...I dare you to eat just one, LOL. I also buy the butter, orange juice, cereals, pasta, etc. Even their mixed nuts are yummy and my son will only eat the GV cocktail peanuts. My hubby bought Planters b/c they were on sale and my son hated them. I think it’s just a matter of what you are accustomed to.

Walmart matches competitors prices.
(In my area)

Well now they don’t because they don’t carry those brands. So if you bring in an competitor’s ad that says Tyson chicken at a particular price, it won’t be Tyson chicken they substitute for you....or cereal etc. (These are just examples). They now substitute for the GV brand So, bottom line, you will not be getting the same quality in the substitution...

Furthermore, by bothering to shop all the different ads, you help those stores stay in business, and from being put out of business by walmart...

Thereby helping your local economy, and having grocers actually closer in many instances...

I appreciate your personal experience. Thanks for the mention.

I won’t be taking advantage of this, but I do hope it continues to work out good for you and your family.
