Does your Walmart Have Yellow Tag Specials?

[leftyladyfrommo]

I needed a blanket and found a really good one for $6.50. I think they are just the tag ends of lots that they just want to get rid of.

Our PriceChopper also has a shelf with special $1.00 deals - and some aren't bad at all. I found sardines for 2/100. Usually they run about $2.50 a can. Course these aren't like high end sardines - more like the pieces that were left over. But who cares.

1. I don't know -- I haven't been in one in years

I do go to Big Lots for stuff like that, though.

5. Our Big Lots sucks

They carry cheap products for the most part and it's a trashy store.

6. Ours is hit or miss

When it's "hit," you can get some great deals.

2. I'd rather freeze to death than buy a blanky there. nt

3. I know, I know.

But I needed a blanket.

The other cheap places to buy are miles and miles from my house . We have a BigLots but they are probably 30 miles from me.

So I go to the Enemy of the People.

4. Any Linens and Things near you?

They are having a clearance sale that is great. Also Target has some clearance stuff(got a queen size sheet set for $15.00). I understand the living out in the middle of nowhere. Hell, I used to have to drive for thirty minutes to do anything. If you must shop at Wally-World, try this...

10. Cathy, that's a great idea

I don't shop at Wal Mart, but imagine if everyone who did just stopped buying toothpaste there? Fucking brilliant! :thumbsup:

11. Thanks...

Can't take credit for it, but it's a good idea.

18. Haven't heard of that store.

There is a Target that is pretty close.

7. It's Target or Costco or I do without

8. I'll buy elsewhere... Just not WalMart.

I think WalMart needs to be broken up.

One store at a time.

With axes.

9. I wouldn't know

I only wind up there when somebody gives LK a gift from there and I have to return or exchange it. I wish people wouldn't give him gifts from there, the clothes never fit well and thier toys are junk. It's a pain in the ass and while he really doesn't need anything I'd rather family give him a few quality items on his b'day and Christmas than huge piles of discount store junk.

12. I wouldn't know

I haven't been in one in ten years.

[Left Is Write]

13. I do not know.

14. And now you know that DUers hate WalMart.

But even I, the epitome of DUism, sometimes have to go there for stuff I can't get anywhere else.

15. ditto. I boycott.

Wal-Mart is absolutely evil. Shopping there is the consumer equivalent of voting for Bush.

16. That's what the internet is for. If I can't find what I need

around here I get online and find it. Even if Walmart wasn't evil I just hate even walking in that store. It's so trashed and full of idiots every time I've ever been there (which is really only 3 times in my life). I've even stopped shopping at Target if I can avoid it because they have some of the same shady business practices (I work for a supplier to Target).

17. I wouldn't know, I haven't darkened their doorway in many years.
