Wal-Mart, the store you go to when you haven’t hated people enough for the week, has announced that they’re going to set aisles aside for $1 merchandise.
That’s right: the store filled with the most cheap crap and Bible-related self-help literature is going to highlight the cheapest crap as you walk inside.
As if we didn’t already wish we had better paying jobs when we walked in, here’s a shelf of off-brand tupperware that won’t survive a handwashing. And here’s a three-pack of end-of-the-season Peeps, you know, because you don’t want to pig out on a whole box, but you can’t say no to almost stale marshmallows.
Basically, this is the Wal-Mart’s most depressing move since they added health clinics to the front. Good thing they can prescripe Equate to my encephalitis! It beats the free clinic, but not by much.
So, good luck, Wal-Mart. Now we have one less reason to go to dollar stores for discontinued pharmacy toys.
