Wal-Mart. Sigh. Wal-Mart.
"You can spend $100 a week on groceries. OR, you can save $700 a year buying the same groceries at Wal-Mart."
That's what their latest commercial says. Now, that makes it seem like you're indeed saving quite a bit of cash except...they say 700 a year. Not per month, or even per week. Just per year. Divide that by 52 weeks and you'll discover you're saving...
*drumroll*
$13.49 a week. That's like a pack of steaks.
Or the gas needed to drive out all the way to Wal-Mart and back home.
Nice one, Wal-Mart, but you shan't fool me. Because I know math, mutha fuckaz.
