Walmart is known for low prices on everything from electronics to clothing. The Great Value brand is often comparable to name-brand products in food and paper goods. For retirees on a budget or those who live in areas with limited shopping options, Walmart is often a go-to for groceries and more.
“My tiny ‘burg has a population of 5,200, where Walmart is the place to shop for almost everything,” said Diane Howe, a 67-year-old retiree who runs the YouTube channel High Mileage Preparedness. “I go there multiple times a week [and] the bulk of my shopping budget is spent there, just above Tractor Supply Company and Lowe’s.”
