I use to haunt the CLEARANCE aisle at WalMart, but have noticed recently items are only marked down $.50 or $1.00. I am spending less and less money at WalMart, I am buying more on-line, shipping charges are less than gas.
WalMart just got too full of themselves and forgot about the consumer and their collective power.
You are so right about that "clearance". Some clearance, a $60 appliance marked off $1.00 the Rollbacks beat that. And, remember that we Generation X people are at the point of knowing we can't take it with us, the kids are gone (for those who had 'em), and now it's time to spend.
