Walmart Shopping Trips Archives

wal-equate

My latest Aldi, Walgreens, Sam’s Club and Walmart Shopping Trips over the last few days have been quite the mix. I hadn’t been to Walmart in quite a long while and to be honest, it was exhausting. I went on a Monday morning thinking it wouldn’t be that busy, boy I could not have been more wrong. That must have been what everyone else was thinking, because the store was just absolutely packed. I have to admit I’m a pretty distracted shopper to begin with, so the massive crowds didn’t help that one bit. It was kind of a strange trip with an odd mix of items. LOL Anyway, here’s what I picked up along with my other store trips over the weekend.

Sam’s Club Shopping Trip

I have found some items at Sam’s to be more expensive than other stores and cheaper in other cases. What I especially like is when I find markdowns like the one below.
