One of the problems with buying from WallyWorld is that you are buying 
seconds or over/unders.  You are also buying last seasons whatevers. 
WallyWorld buys by warehouse lots and takes whatever they supply.  Because 
they buy overs/unders you are never guaranteed the items in their sales 
catelogs and frequently they won't give rainchecks.

I'll pay a couple of dollars more for quality and have it last.

BTW, not gossip, my sister worked for corporate and quite because of what 
she learned during the bigwig meetings!
