Yesterday's to buy list:
20 bags of red cedar mulch
6 bags of water softener salt (pellets)
1 set of replacement windshield wipers for the Sienna
Local Store Prices:
Red cedar mulch - $4.00 a bag
Salt - $11 a bag
Wipers - $26 for the set
Walmart Prices:
Red cedar mulch - $3.50 a bag
Salt - $6 a bag
Wipers - $22 for the set
I decided to buy my items at the local stores around town, and ended up having to go to three separate shops to buy all three items since the place we usually get salt from doesn't carry red cedar mulch. Walmart had all three in one store at lower prices. I'm a proponent of local shops, but jeez how can they expect to keep an edge against companies like Walmart?
