The figures I've read is $2,500 per year, and it is due to competitive pressures from Walmart, which in turn, forces the competition to lower their prices.

From what I've read, something like 1/2 of the increase in the US standard of living the past decade can be attributed to the "Walmart effect."

"I go there maybe once every six months for chain saw bar oil."

OK since it isn't Sunday yet but we have the holiday effect upon us causing most of us to lose our minds for a week or so and since you confessed so will I.

Father forgive me for I have sinned. About 9 months ago I bought some puppy pee pads there because I was going through them like crazy while training Botox who was 19 weeks old at the time we got her.

Anyone else?
