Dead or Alive, Walmart still wants your business




Wal-Mart, one of worlds largest retail stores has now decided that selling every other type of merchandise was not quite enough.. They have now began selling funeral Urns and Caskets online. This could hinder the sales of funeral homes, with Wal-Mart’s low prices of $895.00!! (Black casket on right)These caskets are sold online and delivered where you like.
A leading funeral company Star legacy Funeral Network Inc. offers a variety of caskets, and those (beige on right) visually comparable to Wal-Mart sell for $2,499.00!!! When looking at the lowest cost of Wal-Mart’s casket being 895.00 and the lowest cost of Star Legacy casket being $949.00. The visual comparison would suggest that once again Wal-Mart has proven to have the lowest prices!! In just one click you can now have Wal-Mart deliver diapers and caskets to your destination of choice!
