So. The idea behind shopping at Wal*Mart is to spend less money, ie: to save. Right?
So why is it every time we go we end up spending a small fortune? On things we probably do not really need, and could have probably saved the money for things we really do need?
Tonight, husband and I went to Wal*Mart for groceries we needed. We only needed a few things, really. Breakfast shakes. Cabbage. Vitamins for him. Toilet Paper. Cheese and crackers.
We ended up spending close to $200.
How can you tell me that we actually saved any money, when we bought an extra sensor for the Wii to go to his mother's house, a package of underwear for me, several bags of sugar-free candy, 100-calorie snacks for me, and Station Cash for EQ2?
Mind you, I'm not concerned about spending the money. We wouldn't spend it if we couldn't. But Wal*Mart has a racket going on, I'm telling you. You go in there for toilet paper and cabbage, and come out with a big-screen tv. And somehow, you think you've saved.
