TP and the other items highly sought after real quick as they had a smaller supply on hand, whereas Walmart and Sams had a warehouse full of each of these items.I don't care for Walmart either although Colleen says she saves almost $200 a week doing her grocery shopping there plus other savings on prescriptions and such. So I can't bitch about her shopping there. Some folks whine that we should keep our money here in Flagstaff rather than shopping at Walmart and Sams but all the regular grocery stores are mega chain stores like Kroger, Safeway etc. So the money doesn't stay here any more than it does with Walmart or Sams. plus Walmart and Sams hires probably 5 or 6 times as many local folks as the Safeway or Kroger or the other regular grocery stores.So the old "keep our money here in town BS" doesn't ring true when you think about it.
Now don't take me wrong as I am not promoting Walmart or Sams but just looking at it realistically.
