Is that the exact same product an same size????
I doubt it.
i used to buy groceries at walmart but in the past year i saw the same thing happening...first i noticed that they went to a uniformed generic pkg on the generic items....once that happened i began to notice that the prices on the generics were going up...one example i can give you is the generic vanilla wafers...generic used to cost 1.00 a box...then they went to about 1.50 and not long after the same size box was approx 2.70...for the same size pkg of brand name the price was approx 2.95...walmart is definatly playing games with their pricing imho....ps: i no longer shop there...
In the Walmart I visit, the price is similar, and yes, it’s the same size. And that’s just one item. Lots of price jumps. I also notice a lot of empty shelves—they’re not stocking as many items lately, and those items they stock aren’t always brand names. That’s fine in some cases, but in others, the no-brand items taste like cardboard. Canned no-brand fruit and olives tend to have more liquid and less fruit or olives. And yet they cost more than brand names did just a few months ago.
