Deals

In a time when everyone is budgeting, looking for deals, thought I’d share a few. You probably already know, how much I hate doing this, (because it’s product promotion), but gas and everyday items are going up in price. The only recent products I’ve paid full price for were some stickers I could stick on gas pumps, with the saying “I did this”, next to a picture of an orange orangutan.

SodaStream c02 cannisters at Walmart – $14.96!

Peanuts in Shells 6 Pack (I’ve written about these, delicious) – $13.08

AAAANNNNNNDDDD…………

The holiday ham! Back again!

Meijer has the hams also!!

Feeling like some Terence Trent D’Arby tonight.

Same products, cheaper prices, excellent service. You know what? I rarely, nearly refuse, to promote products or services. But, let me tell you what, Walmart, yes Walmart, is making a very strong case to be a lead competitor against Amazon. If not over take them. The main advantage, brick and mortar stores, facilitating faster shipping and better service (even with groceries and pharmacy).

I did a pickup order the other week, and my car died in the parking lot. Weather, and the fact that my battery hasn’t been changed for quite a few years, probably the culprits. The staff at the store could not have been more helpful. Offering to jump the car (for free), the auto department quick to help out with any future needs which might ensue. A young kid, skipped out to the car with me, couldn’t have been more happy about the weather, and jumped my wagon.

W+, Walmart’s answer to Prime, has been awesome. Grocery delivery for free (within reasonable expectation, usually same day). A shipping option, for free, for non-perishable items, typically same day also. And all this with other perks and a ton of savings.

No shame in this Walmart shopper.

(produce, as far as fresh vegetables, fruit, rice, beans, etc all competively priced also… just a great experience)
