The big box store Wal-Mart has lots of consumer goods at low prices. But, only some things are good deals at the consumer giant. Beware of these items, and your wallet will thank you.
If you need a piece to last or endure kids or pets, look elsewhere. While Walmart’s prices are appealing, especially for wooden furniture items, durability will cost more.
Not only does Walmart have a limited selection of appliances, but, other big box stores like Home Depot and Costco offer better prices and warranty options.
Poultry freshness is a recurring issue for Walmart. Although the selection and price are good, quality matters. No one needs to get ill from a bad piece of meat bought on their last Walmart run.
Smart Talk Wireless, Walmart’s pre-paid phone option is affordable. However, it also typically ranks as one of the worst plans available. Consider Mint Mobile, or even Google Fi if you need a pre-paid phone.
