Walmart is Raising Prices

I recently visited our local Walmart. Generally, I stay away from Walmart because it is usually a miserable experience going in there and check out is always a nightmare. I noticed that the prices were much higher than I remembered. As a matter of fact, I know many of the products that I saw were cheaper at Publix and Kroger. I thought I had lost touch with the current prices some how.

I was not imagining this change. According to a recent JP Morgan study, Walmart has raised their prices by about 6% in the last month while Kroger has cut their prices by 1.3%. One more reason to stay away from Walmart...

Walmart Deals 7/2/08

Thanks to Money Saving Mom for the heads up on all the great Walmart Deals this week! However, I have found that our Middle Tennessee Walmart rarely has the same prices/sales on the food that she has (usually much higher here). On a good note, the non-food items are generally close and there are some great deals. It is a good idea to print out the Walmart Coupon Policy (see links to right) and take with you for the cashier. Many times they don't know their own policy. It is not long, just one page. While Walmart does not have double coupons, it does let you have overage if your product cost less than the coupon.
