OMG! Someone's got a hold of IroNat and turned him against WalMart! Let's hope he doesn't get WDS - Walmart Derangement Syndrome! Stay off social media; its corrupting you. 
I'm going to Walmart later today. Word on the street is that they're having a sale on their Casio watches.  ;)

Wow, a Casio watch is nothing sneeze at!

I bet this goes on at more stores than Walmart, especially if they use pre-packaged meat that comes direct from suppliers, which many of the big chains now do.

From now on I will check the weights of packaged meat wherever I buy it.

I was in ALDI once and the state inspector was in there checking weights.
They do this occasionally at grocery stores.

On the bright side, we've secured a deal with Walmart and you will soon see West Coast Chopper apparel in every store in the US.

I love my Casio's. On a serious note, my wife was complaining that Walmart didn't have the prices of the produce listed nor on the clothes when she was there Saturday. Not sure what's up with that but I'll overlook this and will continue to go. Wife's not so sure.   ::)

It’s the George Foreman grill of salad shooters!

Congrats Coach, getting distribution in Wal Mart is a game changer.  Are you In stores regionally or is it full market?

No, I mostly try to avoid cheap china made shit.

I can get staple products delivered via prime, and better deals elsewhere on any big purchases.

If you have suggestions on stuff I may be overlooking, I'd like to hear it.  I just don't like these stores.

So, you get your cheap Chinee made stuff cheaper on Amazon?

I can dig that.

I get all stuff like paper towels, toothpaste, etc.....all those kind of things are subscribed to off amazon.  In addition to greats prices, I never have to go get them, and I never run out.

I just can't think of what I'd get at those stores that I can't get elsewhere.

If you have suggestions, I'd hear them out.

I've priced that stuff out and couldn't beat local sale prices.
Walmart, HD, Target,ALDI are all within a couple miles from me.
I wait till stuff like that goes on sale and load up.
Still have toilet paper I bought during Covid.
I use AIM toothpaste which is usually under $1 at Walmart for example.
Do you know what "cherry picking" is?  That's me.  ;D
I see what things I use go on sale and then go and buy them.
If they are not a good deal I wait. 
Like meat.  When it's a deal I load up and put in the freezer.
Amazon is great for most stuff for sure.
I bought replacement carburetors for my small engines for only $10 on Amazon.
Bought resistance bands for $4 today.

I never buy meat at Walmart.  Their prices are too high.
They are not competitive for some reason.
I might buy eggs and milk but as far as groceries that's it.

Coach,
What was it like dealing with Walmart buyers?
How competitive did you have to be to supply them?

My boys deal with it. It’s their company. I’m an investor and help with some day to day operations when they’re out of town. As for the Walmart buyers, they contacted them.
