Walmart
Same Throw Rug Cheaper at Another Store Eight Miles Away

I was at one of the Walmart stores in my area yesterday where I purchased a few different items. One of these was a throw rug priced at $7.49. Later in the day I went to a different Walmart store in my area, Falcon Field, (these stores are located 8 miles apart) While looking for an item I noticed the rug that I had bought earlier in the day. However at this Walmart it was on clearance for $5.00. Needless to say I wasn't happy that I paid an extra $2.49 for the same rug. I happened to have the receipt in my purse so after I finished my shopping I stopped at the service counter to ask why this would be.

It was explained to me that all of the Walmart stores are on different schedules so what may be on clearance at one is not the same at another. I was told I could drive the 8 miles to the original store and return it and I could buy the rug there at the reduced price. Needless to say I wasn't going to spend the gas to drive back to the other Walmart. I probably would have cost me more than the original $2.49 in the end. Moral of my story? Keep an eye on Walmart prices, they are not always the same.
