<<Everytime I listen or read something from the Walmart bashers, >>

We have two Walmarts and a Sam's Club in town, one of the Walmarts set records for day, week, month and year in sales the year it opened. What happened was after they opened on the edges of town smaller businesses popped up around them like dandelions after a spring rain. Walmart can't carry everything and they do draw traffic to an area.

(try carrying ten bags of groceries for a couple miles, jerks)

I keep a 13 gallon plastic tie-sack under the seat of my moped. Buy about $20 to $35 worth of stuff and fill the sack which I put in the wire basket on the back, plus a couple of more items under the seat. That is my "twice a week" load from Costco. :>)
