Subject: RE: BS: Has Walmart been defeated?
I did not say "have to shop at Walmart in order to bequeath anything"

I am saying that I see no need to piss money away because I am going to die some day. For one thing I can buy a better quality with my savings.

I can't believe you agree with me about Giant. I go to Giant sometimes to buy what they have on sale. They had bottled water there recently for less than I have ever seen it anywhere. I went there and stocked up. I am not addicted to Walmart. If I was such a total cheapscate, I would not buy bottled water at all.

My wife clips coupons and adds up the savings. She saves between $2000 and $3000 yearly by clipping coupons for stuff we normally buy.

I still don't agree that Walmart drives jobs over seas any more than any other retailer. They sell the same foreign made stuff that the other retailers sell. By the same token, they sell more US made stuff than the other reatilers.

Anything Walmart is guilty of, sears, Best Buy, Target, all of the retailers are guilty of. Singling out Walmart is not logical unless you are a politician looking for an issue to use to get elected or a greedy union.
