walmart

Texas cold caned drinks at the door went up 25 cents.  Have been for a long  long  time 50 cents now 75 cents a can.  

Joe   Do you have any wet backs camping out and about in your neck of the woods?  I have been keeping the gates locked and have new easy to see keep out signs in Spanish posted all around the fence lines.

As with any store, there are some things at Wally World that are a bargain, other things are cheaper at HEB, or United Foods.
Was at the Wally World last week in Round Rock, the unleaded ethanol free was $2.89. Filled up with that before heading back to Midland, as neither of the Walmart’s here have ethanol free unleaded, actually I don’t know of any stations here that have it.

I can tolerate A LOT of "generic" drinks/food, WALMART SODA IS NOT ON MY LIST  !!

diesel here is $3.69/gal. dunno what gas is, haven't bought that in a long time, but will have to shortly when i start mowing lawn. i buy butt wipe at wally world cuz it's .64 cents for 4 rolls, and it's soft and breaks down really fast, best thing for septic tanks. wine is cheaper there too, i never buy any meat there cept chicky that comes from Tyson foods. i did buy an 18 pack of eggs there the other day, was cheaper than buying 12 eggs. and Ken...i don't think the term "wet backs" belongs on this forum! just my thoughts. i normally buy our groceries at other stores. there are a few things we use that we can't get at other stores, but wally world has it. 

Hmm...always thought that term meant wet from crossing the river. Also, never heard it used in much of a way of respect or compliment.

On the other hand, really have to feel for Ken and what he’s going through in his area right now.

That term has ALWAYS been used in a derogatory way, much like the N word,, and Ken knows that!! I don't know what I might of said that set him off enough for him to throw that out there. I hope he realizes that We Are All Immigrants,,some new, some old and some real old. My family migrated to this country from the Copper Canyon area of Mexico, over 6 generations ago. Even the Native Americans migrated here many, many years ago.  I know he has issues with the illegal immigrants flooding the country, everybody does, but I am not his enemy, unless he wants me to be. I will stay out of his way if he stays out of mine.

I was pretty sure you had that heritage based on some prior things said over the years., but not quite 100% sure. Maybe Ken doesn’t realize that about you. I don’t know. Maybe Ken didn’t mean any offense to you, just said what he said without consideration.

All I can vouch for is myself. You are a friend and brother my man.

RAY..... KEN....
