Movin' On Up...

Yesterday we said good bye to the smallest Walmart in the world. I will miss having to juggle my three kids while trying to push the door open to get in. Good bye to searching for something only to find they either do not carry it or it's in an odd place (nail polish next to the cookware). I will also miss pushing a cart load and trying to juggle my three children all while trying to push the door open to get out and feeling like every cashier is watching but no one can get away from their long line to help.

This morning, was the official grand opening of our new Super Walmart. It's probably the smallest Super Walmart in the world but hey, it's super to us. This is a day even my children have been waiting for...my son loves Super Walmart for some reason. We were all so excited to pull in the parking lot and grab a brand new cart. Miss America was at the front door signing autographs and there was a frightening clown walking around waving to the ceiling...what could be more fun than that?! Our first experience was a good one. I didn't need much because we had done our shopping at Aldi on Monday. I had about 5 things that I couldn't get there. The only disappointment: No swim diapers. I didn't travel into the groceries as not to tempt anything to jump into my cart that we didn't need so I don't have a review on that but everything else looked pretty darn good. Today we are on the map.

1 things to add:

Funny! At least Tati is old enough to hold the doors open for me & the other kids :>) We drove by today as they were taking the old lettering down. All that was left was "T". Tatiana couldn't help but wonder what new store would go in there. I think a JoAnn's would fit quite nicely, LOL. But Aldi would be a close second.

I am already planning my price matching scheme for the week....
