automotive stores sometimes - hardware stores
whatever is close - advanced auto, napa, whatever. It was rubbing alcohol by the way.
Believe it or not, but I take Walmart brand Onion and Garlic and mix it with a jar of Walmart brand
Mixing the two sauces togeter gives it the right amount of garlic and veggies. Our family is Italian on both sides, but we all agree for a quick jar sauce instead of homemade, this does the trick! YUM
Have you tried Walmart?

Yes, Walmart has said you
could get your money back for the recalled products. And even if they are different products from China, you could try. Walmart needs to know it matters where they get food from. When buying pet dishes, I suppose we need to make sure they aren't from China or they might have lead.
We have several stores here where they
have all the ingredients cooked/cut up and you just assemble them yourself or you can have them do it for you for a fee.
I think they are too pricey to do on a regular basis, but evidently they are popular as I know of at least 3 stores.
I have read about a chef coming into people's homes and basically doing the same thing. They usually prepare a meal to be eaten fresh that night and then freeze the rest. I'm sure there is a market for it, the young singles starting out in the corporate world with long hours, the wealthy who would otherwise probably eat out every night, etc. I think it would take a while to build up a customer base so that you could actually make a profit, but maybe you could work for a caterer too to help out with the busy times of year. Maybe you could get tied in with a caterer and offer such things through the client base the cateter already has.

At certain stores in MI, s/m
They will double coupons up to $1. I do this a lot with toothpaste and stockpile it. A lot of times it is 2/$4 or 2/$5, so I either get it free or for 50 cents a tube. A lot of the $1 coupons are for new items and our local store here is pretty good about having those on sale a lot during the first few weeks it is out to promote it, so I get the new things relatively cheap as well. You just have to be careful about not getting things "just because you have a coupon."
When I coupon shop, it can take me 3 hours because I compare all the prices with brands to coupons, etc. You also have to really know your prices as compared to other stores. I have one store where I get my meat and I don't like to buy much else there because everything else is expensive. Where they double the $1 coupon, I don't buy anything there that I don't have a coupon and on sale for as their other prices are jacked. I'm really careful about it and belong to an internet sites to help me as well.
Just heard - Walmart is in.
It was just announced on CNN that Walmart is going to acknowledge Christmas.
Walmart/Christmas
Okay, so Walmart has brought Christmas back. That will make some customers happy, but on another note, they've ticked a lot of customers off by doing away with layaway.
walmart/christmas
I don't think I've ever used it. I'm with you, I don't like standing in line! lol Anyway, I don't remember why they are closing it. It was in the paper here a while back. I just feel bad for those that rely on it for Christmas. One thing I thought was cool, from a friend, every time she goes to Walmart she puts $5-$20 on a gift card (same card every time)and uses that at Christmas. Unfortunately, I think I would use it up and not save it for Christmas! lol
I think they use... you can buy it in stores and onlinhe.

Where in the Bible does it say what stores--sm
can and cannot sell?? Point out that *scripture* to me..please! The Bible also says *love one another as you love yourself*.
Stores closing..
The stores did not close for Chanukah...my son had to work 6 out of the 8 nights of Chanukah. I would have loved to have him at own each evening for prayers, but he was there after and we still got to enjoy the Holy Days together. Compromise people, compromise! Life is too short for such frustrations.
and some of us have stores readily available ...n/m
Smoking outside stores
I don't like people smoking outside stores either. They stand right by the door so you have to hold your breath and go through the smoke cloud. Unlike the other things mentioned, that does invade my personal space with secondhand smoke exposure.
I had an old guy do that to me in WalMart one time
I was coming out of an aisle and I always stop and look because sometimes other people just don't. Well, I almost ran into this older man because I didn't see him right away. He looked right at me, rammed his cart into mine, swore under his breath and went on his merry way. 
Problems with pet stores.......sm
My niece bought a St. Charles Cavalier spaniel from a pet store in Houston, TX when she was visiting her in-laws and flew it back home with her. It had a little drippy nose at the time and the pet store reassured them she had just a little cold and said she had been vet checked. Well, by the time she got it home 2 days later, that baby was nearly dead......long story short, they spent a fortune keeping that baby alive....she had one problem after the next. They don't have children yet and she loves this dog like a child, and 4 years later, she is a healthy dog but now and then, has joint problems, had fluid build up in her eyes, and other stuff. She hates it when someone says you should have took her back. She loves the little dog, and I just tell her if you hadn't gotten her, she probably wouldn't be alive, God wanted you to have her because she needed love.
Then she went out and bought a Springer Spaniel, thinking her little girl needed a pal around while she was at work, and he has been a pill and a half ever since. Stubborn streak a mile long!!!!
It is 4 stores around Atlanta, don’t think
national. Let me settle up there first and then I will update. Let me say this, and this gives me hope, the court person the other day said a big chain owed $10,000 and when the truck pulled up in front of their store to load,the checkbook came out so I would like the money back - if not I take more furniture than I bought in the first place. I bought dinette but if I have to remove plan on 4 complete dinettes with 2 sofs and 2 chairs. Already have my wish list just in case!
You shop at Walmart too?

Used Wal Mart for my daughter's bridal shower cake.....did not have that problem....Where do you live......that was really uncalled for.....
WalMart Rage
I have a thought! We could sell tickets to the shopping "encounters" and make a bundle! That way, we could all afford to shop wherever we want for whatever we want when this is all over.
Actually, I don't really think this is restricted to just Christmas season - I have had some nuts "accost" me at other stores too, especially Costco, during all the seasons. The most annoying and aggresive was an old man (looked in his late 70s) who wanted my space in line and kept "ramming" my basket trying to cut into line. He had already tried it on two other people and "lost" out in another line - I had been watching him. My husband told me to let him go in front of us and suddenly a light came on in my head and I lost it. I turned around and asked him if he was crazy or just rude. Then, a man behind me told me to "comeon, just let him go" and then I REALLY lost it. I told the crazy guy to keep it up and I would call the police on him for battery. He just looked at me and looked at me. I don't know about you guys, but sometimes enough is enough. I am old now and tired and so sick of people like him. Why should I "keep the peace" at my own expense when that is exactly what most of the people like him expect? Besides, it was "empowering" to tell him to bug off. I don't look for trouble, but I don't have to be a doormat either and I don't intend to. Maybe one of those people that were taken away to the hospital were like me. Hope that doesn't happen to me too, but hey you never know. From now on I do not ever intend to be intimidated by rude mean people again. Even if they punch me! I will fight back. Guess it wouldn't hurt to make sure that I have something substantial in my basket to use just in case he is bigger than me?
Why didn't someone call security before the problem got out of control?
Where we live sometimes there is WalMart rage out in the parking lot too over spaces! Yet another reason to never go there! I guess we should shop where they have the most security to keep you safe from the other customers.
Walmart here has the music CD for $10 (sm)
Not sure if they have the actual cartoon...I love how it puts the season back in the right perspective. I also think the fact that I have been watching it around Christmas since I was a kid has something to do with it helping me feel "Christmasy". The CD is really good though-I've seen the cartoon so many times I can picture it while I'm listening to the music and doing other things.
You can get it from Amazon if not in stores (nm)

Sorry, pic did not upload. I'll keep trying at it.

LOL---Walmart:-) That's good. NM
I don't know but after I posted this I went to Walmart
and got this supposedly comfortable panty that cinches waist and tucks tummy. Looks comfortable. Only 7 bucks. Still too chicken to try it. Now I bid on e bay that body shaper thing like the one on HSN so it makes me 10 pounds lighter. Looks uncomfortable but will try. Of course, I just gave up and am getting size 10/11 jeans now. Going to auction off my size 5 jeans. I am torn between being comfortable and me and looking good and uncomfortable. Don't you just love midlife crises? BTW: I look at vintage clothing from the 80s back to 50s. Nobody could ever fit in those 36-24-36 garments. They had to have worn girdles all the time at least in the 50s, or they had some amazing way to figure out how to distribute!
No it is a PC game that you can buy at WalMart
They do make a console version but it's horrid.
if you have slow PC or laptop I would recomend The Sims Life Stories because The Sims 2 game takes up a lot of memory and requires a fast system, the Life Stories is a "lite" version and requires you to reach certain goals rather than free play. I really enjoyed Life Stories, wish they would come out with more.
here is the sims 2 deluxe edition:

I don't blame the stores at all
Its a vicious circle for everyone, and everyone is loosing money. The stores because people won't buy what they used to and the consumer because they have to pay so much more for what they do get!!!

we got a lil group of us going to do it! U ought to do it with us girl!!! talk to ya in a lil while!
Why do stores, like Wal-Mart,
always redesign their layout just when I finally learn where things are?
Why are the seats of the carts at Wal-Mart so little? My 3-year-old barely fits in.
Why is it when I go to buy something on sale or "as advertised", the store never has it in stock?
Why do Walmart and Meijers have 20 or
more checkout lanes, but only 2 or 3 open at any given time?
stores that are going out of business
I got my teenage son all new bedding. Down comforter, designer sheets, etc. There are some good sales at these stores shutting down.
And yes, he wanted an Ipod, but he sleeps all the time anyway, so have a nice bed I think!
This could happen anywhere, not just WalMart.

Walmart employee
And while EMS was trying to work on him to save his life, people were still trying to walk around them to get in the store and shop. It is a very sad look at our society.
why I shop at Walmart
to save money. I have a bottom line too, and I go where I can get the best price.
I have a neighbor who thinks Walmart is Satan too, and guess what? we caught her shopping there last week.
The medical industry should boycott companies that send our work to India, then maybe I could afford to shop at Target. :)
Shopping at Walmart
We shop at Walmart every week. Everything is much cheaper there and as the other poster said, I go there to save money. Our store is clean and the people are friendly. There is a Target directly across the street from our Walmart and there is hardly ever anyone there and the Walmart parking lot is mobbed.
I think Walmart is the Antichrist.
is truly evil. Sorry, but that's my take. I am lured in time after time by their so-called lower prices, and eats my paycheck away. It is also becoming a monopoly in my town, not many other places to even shop. I miss the old days where we at least had more of a choice.
PS: At first when the Walmarts are new, they look clean, and the employees are kind. We just had a new Superwalmart move in about half a mile from the old one. When the Walmart gets a few years old: Dirty, and nasty workers. Antichrist: Looks good at first, turns sour at the end and takes us all down with him. LOL.
At clothing stores
Most stores don't carry very large sizes, so you end up wearing what you have got, or having to special order.
After stopping off at Walmart ;)

My son says he thinks Walmart
pizza is the very best, and he is my super picky eater. We get them often. The pepperoni is quite greasy but you can dab off the extra grease with a paper towel. If they have the canadian bacon thin crust, grab one and enjoy! I recommend those above all other flavors. Yum!
Not to digress, but I thought stores never
nm
And, I'm not talking about WHO the stores sell to, I'm
And, no I don't buy from businesses that knowingly sell homosexual material of any type!
You are so right. I never saw such junk as I looked at in these stores. Well I will be a lot more
careful what I buy and who made it. This was all made overseas. Just junk and not cheap.
well just this year they opened 15 stores in...nm
Walmart fired my daughter...
the last week in November. She had called in sick 2 days before, and the assistant manager who fired her said they knew she had called, but they were firing her for a "no call, no show." The truth is my daughter worked in lay-away, which has been discontinued at Walmart, and they had no place for her in another department.
She had loved working there and was totally crushed when they fired her. A month before Christmas . . . what a nice surprise!
I think Walmart stinks.
And that is why I don't shop at those store, but there are many stores that I do
items. I'm not holding any anger from this end, I am just going to continue to stick to my convictions.
consignment stores and outlets
I've been shopping those for years....I get sticker shock at the malls...prices are outrageous. In recent memory the most I've paid for a designer suit that included skirt, pants and jacket....houndstooth print in a petite size (which are hard to find) with the original tags still on it from a major dept store was $25. I did break down and spend $7 on a cashmere turtleneck though.  It's real fun to get a bargain and still have money left over to go grocery shopping.
Goodwill Stores & Halloween - sm
Wow.... I just got back from a trip to the local Goodwill Store, and boy, am I ever ready for Halloween! Beginning in October they bring out all their costumes, and costume-worthy, bizarre clothing. Usually I don't get there 'til it's all picked over, but THIS TIME I went early. Sometimes I get stuff just for the material, or the trimmings, and other times I'll see a piece and do some "reverse engineering" on it to turn it into something else. But I don't need to do that this year - everything I found is good to go!
I LOVE Halloween... it's always been my favorite holiday! Can't wait..!
Try Target......and call stores every day - sm
we went through this in August. Heard 2 things, they will only be selling them in bundles from now on (which we did not want)....and starting to sell them in China now, so not a lot coming to U.S, most are going to China right now so it is very hard to find them. We had bought a used one at Game Stop, but found a problem with it on the last day of the warranty (7-day warranty return policy on used stuff); took it back that night and still had to fight for a refund, and started hunting again. Told to call Wal-mart every day and run in there when they said they got them in (ours was getting 30 a week back in August with 1 weekly shipment but they would sell out in 2 hours). I found them at Target a day or two after we'd bought the used one.....of course they were gone when I went back a 5 days later. But my DH went into a Target in the town he was working and lucked out and bought one there. So if you have a Target, try your luck there, and keep calling until they get a shipment in and drop everything and go when you do find one. I am thinking about seeing if I can luck into any and resell on ebay, make some Christmas money! You can find them on ebay but I am sure as Christmas draws closer the price will rise dramatically. Good luck.
