Wal-Mart announced Tuesday that it will chop prices between 10 to 30 percent this week on groceries, electronics and other home-related products

KMart is gone around here. They've all been turned into Sears Essentials.

Keep in mind, you lose 20 IQ points every time you enter a Wal-Mart, but only get back 18 when you exit. So, please be careful!

I guess me and Luz are some of the freaks then that walk down the aisles of Walmart ..

Could you support your family, the way you do now, working at Wal-Mart? Those jobs are a step above slavery if you ask me. I'll give my money to help keep people working at fair wages.

Only a looser would try. Wal-Mart, like a fast food joint, is an entry level job. The difference in what Target pays it's workers and Wal-Mart isn't enough to make much difference. Like it or not there will always be some jobs that don't pay enough to have a $150K house with 2 cars and put 3 kids though college.

So if your beef with Wal-Mart is the 50 cent difference it pays the cashiers then it's a small difference indeed.

What the hell is a $150k house?

Does not compute LOL

Where do you go to work if you're ma or pa and they shut down your store with their pricing? Wal-Mart, maybe? Wal-Mart gets rid of local business, employs those who used to work there, and then shuts down when a small town's economy is in ruins.

I find this exceptionally sad Gary. How many of our immigrant spouses come over here with education that is not accepted here and must start at entry level jobs? What if something happens to the USC (who only might be steps up the ladder) and the family has very little choice but to rely on some interim benefits to the USC and a entry level wage by the immigrant spouse? Losers?

And you lose your 50 IQ points by judging us just because we enter and shop at Walmart. You freak you!!!

My thoughts exactly.

It's pretty sad to be looking down at anyone trying to make a life for themselves. Or the greeters who want to do something in their retirement.

I bet those 'loosers' can spell better too!
