Walmart Standards

[Sabretooth]

A board members post about a cheap walmart tablet malfunctioning has jogged my memory about some walmart experiences.

1. Years ago when they first entered this area, I bought a short sleeved shirt from them.
   It felt " off " somehow, after wearing a couple of times I looked down at my arms and the sleeve on one arm was
   about 3 inches longer than the other side ( my arms are equal length ). It was not marked "irregular or second ".
2. I bought great value thick easy pour bleach - the bottle developed a leak and emptied onto the floor in the laundry
   room ( luckily a concrete floor )
3.great value steak sauce ( taste exactly like A1 to me ) bottle warped in fridge and leans to 11 oclock instead of
  straight up.
4.bought two clocks ( made in china ) with large numbers to be seen across room ( Timex and ? ) neither worked so
  returned both.
5. bought Murray fwd self propelled mower- only 140cc, stopped every few seconds and had no traction. Took me 3
   hours longer to cut grass due to many restarts and pushing fwd mower.Probably a poor decision on my part to buy that cheap Murray. ( Next week GOT A HONDA RWD that works great from Northern Tool ) )
6.In order to keep prices low Walmart has lower quality standards for some of their products like clothing.electronics,
  lawn equipment, etc.
7. 6 quart oil change container leaks due to cheap gasket

I really like GV spicy sausage patties, and GV gingerale , and choose them over any national brand

In retrospect I must be more diligent in product selection to avoid time and gas wasting return trips to wally world.
