If people are stupid enough to get gas at walmart when it is more expensive, that is their own fault. It doesn't make walmart evil...
As for Kroger, I don't have experience with all their dairy products... I think their yogurt compared to dannon and yoplait is very good and much less expensive. Their milk is very good but I haven't tried fancy $7/gallon varieties. I am really just comparing their products to other grocery store brands (HEB, Randalls, and Walmart) and readily available national brands.
I also think their meat is better. Especially the ground beef they grind up and put out in the evening - all the leftovers from the days work. Very flavorful and cheap!

In my area, between Safeway, Giant, Whole Foods, Shoppers, CVS, and Harris Teeter, the cheapest milk is sold at. . .Whole Foods. It's also reasonably tasty.
I don't think we have Krogers.

I don't think that qualifies WalMart as evil though. I mean, lots of people buy gas at the BP around the corner, when they could save a significant amount of money buy driving a quarter mile up the street to the Raceway. It may also depend on what they had been charging before and when their next delivery is. Gas stations pay for their gas upfront (of course) and if they don't have the money at the time of delivery they get no gas. If they were short what it was going to cost them to pay for their next delivery, they would have had to up the price like any other station.

There's more than a few other things that qualify WalMart as evil in my book, but that may be a subject for another thread.

Don't wait till the night before Halloween to buy candy corn (the traditional kind). Publix had some store brand ones, but they are pretty lame and dry/broken looking. Hoping there are enough intact ones to decorate my cupcakes.
