    Re: I am tired of buying shotty merchandise from walmart

    No I haven't!

    Got a link?

    Perfect example.

    My local store started carrying an automotive product called Sea-Foam at 5 something a can.

    This was like HALF what the local parts stores sold them at! Guess what? I got into the habit of buying it there from then on.

    Next thing I know, it's over 9 bucks a can!

    They get ya buying crap there with their prices, then raise em up slowly and quietly.

    I see it with stuff year after year.

The thing about them going into towns and lowering prices and putting them out of buisness and raising prices back, was NEVER actually proven. A third party, unaffiliated with wal mart, did a survey of such said wal mart and over about 10-15 years the prices only went up about 2.5-5%
