we just spent an exhausting few hours at wal mart. i am embarassed to admit that i've been there more often in the last few weeks than i ever intended to be. in the past i've looked at wm with scorn, but christ, they have deals and you can get damned near everything there under one roof. i really dont like shopping in 75 different places to get three things.
the prices are great, too. i can get 20 bags of groceries for under $200, whereas if i went to safeway, i'd be spending $250 or more for the same items. walmart, despite its tendancy to support the chinese market, has some great deals.
the produce sucks balls tho. safeway is still superior for that kind of stuff. same with the meat. hey if you want a cheap lb of beef to fry up, walmart is great. but if you are looking for decent produce that is local, forget it. you'll never see a tomato or cucumber from redcliff greenhouses, even tho it's 10 mins down the highway.
anyway, i'm happy to report that the shopping should be over with for now. for a little while anyway.
