Bashing Wal-Mart is fun, though. We boycotted W-M for three months before breaking down and returning to a Neighborhood Market. The smaller stores aren't as much of a pain. My wife went to the Stupor Wal-Mart again recently, but it was such a bad experience that it's going to have to be an emergency before we return. The store itself isn't so bad, it's the employees.

hey, they carry REAL Dr Pepper in the west Houston locations (Sugar Land, Katy, Rosenberg). $3/6 pack

Besides, the Huffington Post is about as biased as they come......altho the story isn't new and cetainly was carried by most major outlets (including the Houston Chron), it appears to have been spun only minimally from the AP feed. They only seem to have added some west coast lib snarkiness.....

How easy did you find your stuff? They move things around so much that I can't keep up with it, then it takes forever to find. Give me an Albertsons or Kroger even a Super1 any day. It may cost a little more but the service is better, the employees are pleasant, things are easy to find and I don't have to park 40 miles away from the door.

Quite honestly - the only difference the cost of my casket is going to make is going to be the bottom line of my families bank balance.

I'm not gonna be there, don't care what happens to what's left... throw a party, remember me fondly... and move on.

If my family can get a better deal at Walmart - buy it, ship it, bury me in it.

But check with the Pine Box... they are pretty good too.

Or why bother with a casket at all -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_burial.
