Why is Wal-Mart so addicting??

Why is it that everytime one goes into Wal-mart, you can never buy just one thing? Is there some kind of vibe that pulls people in and gets in their brains and says,"You need this, you need that!" I am always going in there for one thing and i always leave with a shopping cart full! Is anyone else like this?

I think walmart is so addicting bc they have reasonable prices and lotz to choose from. What you can buy at an expensive store walmart has the same thing and less cheaper! I go to walmart for just about anything..I even take my car there to get repairs done half the time cuz it's really cheap n what not. Idk I just favor walmart and I prefer it over any other store. I like Superwalmart better then reg walmart.

LOl! I always do the same thing. I go for laundry soap or something and walk out with over $200 worth of things I could have done without. I guess it is addicting for me because they have everything that you could possibly ever need there plus more. It helps that it is a lot cheaper then going to other stores too.

I know what you mean. I went to Wal-Mart yesterday for a few things and I walked out with close to $150 worth of stuff. The things I went in for should have cost me around $35-40. We have a Super Wal-Mart, so we have groceries too though. I think about half of it was food items.

yeah, i feel the same way! maybe because they have everything you could think off at a very low price. When i go grocery shopping with my husband, we always end up buying more than what's on the list..

This is the same way I am. Although my last trip there I went in for 4 things and came out with 3. That's was probably only because I was so aggravated that they no longer carry my brand of shampoo.
