This guy could kidnap orphan babies to strap his car and crash it into a wall and 'claim ignorance' that what he did was unethical and/or illegal.
The resemblance in that photo is remarkable
Doesn't Walmart often price things at xx.88?
Hmm. Maybe maybe not. See #2 here: https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/store-hacks/walmart-price-tags
That was my first instinct, but no... The specific inclusion of 14 & 88, together and in that order?
Walmart just did it to be noticeably less than competitors, who often would price items ending in .99, .98, or .97.
I thought that those were levels of price reduction.
.99 is normal
.98 is on sale
.97 is deep sale, never going to be cheaper
That's how my buddy who worked at WallyWorld 20 years ago explained it.
ignorant of many things he is yes. but familiarity with fascist nazism isnt one of them
Ok that sucks but are the pillows any good? 15 bucks would be a steal for a good pillow.
They're nothing special. Look up "shredded memory foam pillow" on your favorite big retailer's website and you'll find a better deal, especially when you add the shipping fee.
Just shown us the damn pictures.

There are a lot of valid reasons to detest the guy. Going out on a limb with weird conspiratorial accusations isn't really necessary. Already enough of that weird nonsense out there. Just sayin.
