I had been at Wal-Mart last Thursday night, then had to go back on Saturday to pick up a few extra things. I swear that almost everything in the food section had gone up 25-35 cents in 48 hours! Some items had gone up over $1 and I saw a lot of families really analyzing the prices and content of the packages. A year ago most people just grabbed bags of stuff and threw it in their carts, but not now. I think this is going to hit a lot of families hard and if Republicans were smart, they could use this in some ads.

When our town got a Wal-Mart years ago people were afraid the “hardware store on Main Street” would close; I believe they’ll actually close our Shop-Rite and Pathmark as well. Their prices are the best in town for groceries, though you’re up to your armpits in welfare recipients.
