Walmart sends huge warning about US economy (people are broke)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- Walmart reported quarterly earnings and showed 4% revenue growth. Which historically is a sign of a slowing economy, as more people go to Walmart because of discounted groceries.

Back in the mid-2000s Walmart's revenue grew every year during the housing bubble crash. Walmart is a countercyclical economic indicator that performs well when everyone else is performing worse.

I was shocked at how much cheaper grocery prices were at Walmart than Publix (and Dollar Tree). They're going to drive a lot of other stores out of business.
Is this a good or bad thing for the economy...?
They are higher than HEB on any things.
@@solskengroupllp2758What is HEB?
Thats been the plan all along. Walmart & big stores put the small, local businesses out & as time goes by when they’ve crushed all the competition they jack the prices up & you have no other real options, & the Walmarts & Amazons control it all. ( sort of like VP’s communist “Price Control” plan).
Thats been the the plan all along. Walmarts and Amazons came into areas, slowly pushing the smaller businesses out and once they’ve crushed them, the Walmarts and Amazons & gov control it all, then jack up the prices higher than they’ve ever been. Our options become more & more limited & the ability of owning a small business becomes harder & harder, until your only option is a monopolized government run, one stop shopping. ( sort of like the VP’s communist “Price Control” plan).
@@solskengroupllp2758 It's a feel good shopping experience that should make your wallet feel better.
The economy is grappling with uncertainties, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.
Things are strange right now. The US dollar is becoming less valuable because of inflation, but it's getting stronger compared to other currencies and things like gold and property. People are turning to the dollar because they think it's safer. I'm worried about my retirement savings of about $420,000 losing value because of high inflation. Where else can we keep our money?
Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.
Mind if I ask you recommend this particular professional you use their service? i need all the guidance I can get.
Vivian Jean Wilhelm is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Thank you so much for your helpful tip! I was able to verify the person and book a call session with her. She seems very proficient and I'm really grateful for your guidance
I work for Publix and they recently had an emergency meeting in Orlando calling in all managers, which rarely happens. Turns out revenue is down and leadership wants our focus to be on lows and out of stocks on the shelves, which has ALWAYS been a priority. Leadership is out of touch with our customers and don’t understand that people can’t afford to shop at Publix. Even the associates they work for the company will shop elsewhere. Walmart and Aldi are taking customers from us and they can’t seem to understand that people are struggling and need to stretch their dollar.
Yeah even though Publix does those random discounts on items, its not consistent on items you need
@@l2xsniper1 even after the “discount”you’re still better shopping elsewhere. Most of our customer show up for the BOGOs and other good deals. You can save at Publix if you shop smart.
I shop Publix and WinDixie because I get to both stores with out a traffic light drama. like Publix for just about everything except for prices. Stores are clean and well stocked and customer service is very good. However, Publix is out of touch with reality. I shop WinDixie because I feel they have better prices. I shop Publix because of produce quality. Like shown in the video, I shop Target for eggs, milk and other things we need because they have better prices. Our Walmart competes with everybody. I generally find that Walmart is not significantly cheaper on most items for me to make a separate trip there.
Several industries are experiencing the same situation, with the same leadership response. Amazing how out of touch people who are supposed to have their finger on the pulse of the markets are now. It's not rocket science, the economy is crap, costs are too high, debt of households is high, so what would one think is going to happen? Duh.....even Homer Simpson could figure this one out.
PubIx nice but too pricey
*Amazing video, you work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires*
Waking up every 14th of each month to $210,000 it’s a blessing to I and my family… Big gratitude to Lisa Annette Robinson 🙌
Hello , I am very interested. As you know, there are tons of investments out there and without solid knowledge, I can't decide what is best. Can you explain further how you invest and earn?
Hello how do you make such monthly?? I'm a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down 🤦♀️ of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God
I'm favoured, $90K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America,, all thanks to Lisa Annette Robinson 😊🎉
Good day all👍🏻 from Australia 🇦🇺. I have read a lot of posts that people are very happy with the financial guidance she is giving them ! What way can I get to her exactly ?
Every crash/collapse brings with it an equivalent market chance if you are early informed and equipped, I've seen folks amass up to $1m amid economy crisis, and even pull it off easily in favorable conditions. Unequivocally, the collapse is getting somebody somewhere rich
I do not disagree, there are strategies that could be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such execution are usually carried out by investment experts with experience since the 08' crash
The issue is people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt. Ideally, advisors are reps for investing jobs, and at first-hand encounter, my portfolio has yielded over 300% since 2020 just after the pandemic to date.
i'm blown away! mind sharing more info please? i am a young adult living in Miami where i've encountered several millionaires, and my goal is to become one as well
Lucia Alicia Cruz is my FA, simply do due diligence . You'd find necessary details online to work with and set up an appointment.
Thank you for the lead, curiously searched Lucia on the web by her full name and spotted her consulting page, no sweat. Just sent her an email, hoping she gets back to me soon..
i went to walmart and kroger and it cost me $300.!!!!!!!!!
I'm single with no kids, no pets, no life....
Idk man, u got sports car in yo pic... Coulda bought a focus lol
Mind you, it is a mustang lol
People will say
300?!? That's ridiculous I can live off 50 a week.
Sure you can.....sure you can.
The same, no dependents or wives, $200 for a visit for groceries.
@@beefnacos6258 The $300 purchase was for a week? or for a couple weeks. Not much in the comment.
Our rent has gone up 10-15%/year but our wages have only gone up 2-3%/year. Something has gotta give.
I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
@@zubairadamu2477 That's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well
@@zubairadamu2477 The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
@@zubairadamu2477 I will give this a look, thanks a bunch for sharing.
They must work at TakeU2Ceaners
Don’t let this guy drive you down. He only wants click on his channel and make money from you people. This guy sucks and all he said is 90% lie
We shop at Aldi and they are 30 to 50% less than Publix on almost every item. Yes it requires giving up devotion to name brands. Saving $200 to $300 a month on groceries makes it worth it.
When it comes to getting affordable items, I go to Aldi. That way I cut costs, save money and in turn, invest it. Investing has been rather rewarding to me and I've learned that getting a good return is very much attainable if you know your way around it.
How are you doing it? Not everyone is as lucky as you know.
Luck is way off the picture. Jonas Herman, a licensed fiduciary is the brain behind my success. I've gotten into a plethora of assets with $19k spread across stocks (options and futures) for the short term and Roth IRA, index funds, cryptocurrency and ETFs, for the long term. Now with over 91k in roi, I sit back and just reinvest at intervals while I handle my other businesses.
To me, investing is not worth it and I know that's the same mindset holding me back from taking a step forward in my finances. It’s all gambling.
@@Christensen554 Is he taking new clients? I'll be turning 46 soon I hope it's not too late. This whole stuff is just too complicated for me. I don't mind using some help.
Hermanw jonas that’s his gmail okay
It's not longer news cost of living is real and it's a global situation every one is talking about without giving a right solution on how to savaged through this situation, i have sat down and think. In the same environment where we have people doing two jobs but still struggling to make a living there are still people living successful financial life, that's why In these uncertain times, it's more important than ever to have a solid understanding of how to manage your finances because even the bank is insured, invest wisely and navigate economic downturns, investing with the little you have can give you a future you don't need to work again, i pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life too 🙏🙏🙏
That's true, there is never any culture of wealth gathering or wealth creation to keep multiplying your finance that lacks an investment value Instead of saving money in the bank .
You're absolutely right, you've remind me of what someone once said "The mind is the man, the poor is in it and the rich is it too". This sentence is the secret of most successful investors. I once attended similar and ever since then been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth..investment is the key that can secure your family future.
that's why I always urge everyone to start investing somewhere now no matter how small, this is literally the time for that, forget material things, don't get tempted,i became more better the moment i realized this.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don't know who agrees with me but either way I recommend having investment
yeah investment is the key to sustaining your financial longevity but venturing into any legitimate Investment without a proper guidance of a good financial advisor can lead to a great loss too
My neighbor is store manager of a Publix. His wife said he recently got a pay increase and now earns $300,000. I’ll continue shopping at Aldi.
I don’t believe at all
They're feeding you a line of bullshit.
There's no way he makes $300,000 managing a grocery store lol
Try about $90k
$300,000 damn, save what you can now.
Everyone that shops at Alde lies all the time lol but no joke Aldi is junk in many ways
I just looked it up. its 156k.
Tired of the "recession is coming!" threat. Recessive periods come along with equivalent market opportunities if you are well informed and equipped, I've seen folks amass wealth in the midst of economic turmoil and even pull it off easily in favorable conditions. Invariably, the collapse is getting somebody somewhere rich
Choose quality stocks and follow them up. If you're not one for such complexities, work with an Advisor to grow your portfolio. You can't go wrong with a sound CFA.
You're right, I and a few Neighbors in Bel Air Area work with an advisor who prefers we Dollar cost averaging across other prospective sectors instead of a lump sum purchase. Following this, my portfolio grew by more than 40% in the 2nd quarter.
I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for portfolio managers online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a suggestion?
I've stuck with ‘’Jessica Lee Horst” for about 9 months now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look her up.
Jessica sure knows her onions in this industry, from her intimidating profile which I went through, on her web home page. I started off last year tailoring a colleague's trading strategies but it didn't pan out well. Hopeful that Jessica will attend to my message.
When I was in college, I always thought "once I'm making six figures, I'm never going to shop at walmart again. I can't WAIT for that!"
Now here I am in 2024, making six figures like "Holy shit. Good thing we have Walmart and Aldi. Otherwise we'd be screwed."
I'm 7 figures networth and Walmart is still my go to. No need to overpay.
When you’re in college you don’t realize how little 6 figures is (no shade to you, you’re doing great)
I got news for you, me and my millionaire friends still shop at Costco and look for deals at ALL times
@@SOLANAESTELLAI mean, if you're spending every penny you make, any sum of money will seem small.
Same here. I only eat 1 meal a day so my family can eat. Rough 4 years
Unfortunately, not all of us were financially literate early. I was 35 when I finally educated myself and started taking steps. I went from $176,000 in debt with zero savings or retirement to now, 2 years later, fully debt-free and over $1000,000 net worth. I know that doesn't SOUND like a lot, but I'm incredibly proud of it. Now I'm fast-tracking my wealth building (investing $400,000 annually) and don't owe a dime to anyone. It's a good feeling!
I want to start too but i don't know how..
Lol, what strategy do you use please?
Exploring new investment opportunities demonstrates your proactive stance towards financial growth during these volatile times. Diversifying your portfolio can play a crucial role in effectiveIy mitigating risks..
Don’t be confuse buying the dip in a bear market, with guaranteed future returns. Just because that company is down 60%+ from ATH does NOT make it a sound long-term investment. Make sure you’re investing in great companies. kudos to Adriana Catherine
Nice to see you talking about her, sHe is really amazing, she has amazing skills, she changed my 0.3 BT C to 1.9 BT C ......
We lived in a small town in Denver area before Walmart. There was lots of mom and pops. 5 years after they opened, about half the mom and pops closed.
So what? It seems your neighbors didn't like getting gouged by the mom and pop stores.
It is called "The Walmart Effect"
This has been long known & understood by Walmart.
Initially, they undercut local businesses to bring in customers. This takes customers away from mom & pop's causing many to close.
Once market domination is achieved, Walmart raises prices.
Woman tried to run me down at WM last week. I took too long (1 min) to load my groceries and she wanted the parking spot. So, she tried to kill me. Makes sense.
So, you met my ex-wife?
You should have loaded everything and went right back in the store lol people get on my nerves. 🥲
I had a woman get pushy with me because the self checkout wasn't giving me a receipt fast enough. I called her impatient right to her face.
After my car insurance, home insurance, general grocery inflation, etc... we are broke. FJB
The problem is both parties are allowing these corporations to raise prices so they can have endless profitable quarterly earnings
@@cxMLG No party is supposed to set prices, other than Communist Party. They are selling you in a different way - by providing "too big to fail" golden parachute for financial institutions, so they are willing to take extreme risks without actually risking anything - a taxpayer and their children will cover the loss.
As if Biden has anything to do with it. He is just a front man for the uniparty. Duh. God, I swear, the propaganda works so well on the feeble minded.
You don't need no stinkin' insurance!
Vote with brass not paper
I used to go to Publix and I think the Pandemic was their excuse for raising prices. I now shop at Trader Joe.
Some comparisons:
1. Kale salad is $3.29 at Trader Joe and $4.99 at Publix
2. 2 burritos at Trader Joe's are $3.99 and just ONE Amy's burrito is nearly that much at Publix.
3. 5 small chicken drumsticks are usually less than $4 at Trader Joe's, and closer to $5.50 at Publix
4. Trader Joe has a very good red Cabernet wine for $7.99 and anything comparable at Publix is $11.99
Trader Joe has better fruit prices, too.
I never feel that Walmart produce is fresh and in case people did not know, they irradiate their meat.
Irratiate their meat?
Now's my chance to get a real taste of the Fallout universe
I hate Walmart
Been renting a house for 4 years, it's 3 bedrooms, finished basement, 2 bathrooms and a 2 car garage for $1,400 a month. My neighbor sold their house that is identical to the house I'm renting and sold it in less than 2 weeks for over $50k of what it was valued on Zillow. The next week I get a text from my landlord that they are going to sell the house, although in my State I can stay until my lease is done. So I have been looking for another place to rent as my lease is done at the end of November. I have been flabbergasted at the prices to rent a house. I thought the $1,400 I was paying was on the high side, ha! Right now I can't touch a house equal to this for less than $2,200 a month. A house for $1,400 is a 1 bedroom and lucky to have a garage. It's insanity!
This is an excellent, real world example of the impact that of inflation. I was in a very similar situation.
your lucky, my one bedroom apartment in florida is 1800 a month.
Might be a good idea to ask the owner to redo your lease at a new rate if $2100 per month. Try to get a 2 year deal. Sounds like the owner was nice and in doing so regrets his lost revenue. In many areas housing prices are dropping due to prices and higher interest rates. Give it a try, Good Luck
@@bradbradshaw-i4n I live in the mid-west, you know the fly over country. So things are a bit cheaper here, but so is the pay income. It all balances out in a way.
@@allyjack8437 They are set on selling the house, they bought it for $89k back in 2013 and the house next door sold for $280k, they are seeing dollar signs.
Aldi's beats Walmart on pricing.
The U6 number that counts discouraged workers is at 7.9%. This is more of an accurate reflection of the true unemployment rate.
I find that funny because there's an Aldis in a Walmart right next to each other that that's around me and I go to Walmart because they are actually cheaper than the Aldi's
Aldi's cheaper here. Good thing too. I refuse to go to Walmart.
I miss aldis
But what you really want to look at is participation rate. It’s fallen from 66-67% down to 62%. That’s about 8-10 million who have dropped out. So the U6 is actually waaay understating the unemployment crisis.
Reality is we’ve been at near depression level unemployment for many years. So sad.
I go to Walmart when the economy is good or when it is bad. Walmart is almost never beaten on price and quality is acceptable.
I used to shop at Walmart until i discovered Aldi... Aldi makes walmart shake in their boots.
Aldi is my fave❤
Aldis is 20% lower than walmart. They just dont have everything.
I get lot flyers but never been there. Let me try. Good idea
Aldi has a limited inventory and some of us don't want to go to 5 different supermarkets to shop, Walmart is the best all around option
@@sbkpilot1 why would you need to go to 5 different places because you shop at Aldi? 😂.... Are you saying you have to go to 4 different places already and dont want to add a 5th? If so, that's a you problem.... We get 80-90% of our food at Aldi and have saved literally thousands over the last few years....
limited, yes, but in a way that makes it work. Sure, we go to walmart, HyVee, or an asian grocery store every now and then to get speciality items but Aldi is our foundation. If you don't want to save 20-40% on 80-90% of your groceries, then clearly you're wealthy or dont value financial freedom.
I would never buy meat from Walmart. Walmart’s produce is bad. The only thing I get from Walmart is name brands.
Yeah. I don’t trust Walmart foods.
@@ronniewoods582 most of what I get from Walmart is generic.
Absolutely
Tyson mass farm produced garbage meat.
Exactly. Haven't purchased that funny meat in yearssss.
My partner and I make six figures, and I can confirm that we recently made the switch. We spend about $100-250 less per trip at Walmart.
Walmart has always been cheaper than most places, no surprise there. What is a surprise is a few years ago Walmart began to test a pricing scheme where a particular item, let's say their Great Value food storage bags, which comes in various counts like 25, 50, or 75 in a box... They must've figured out that most people buy the larger count boxes because they think they're saving money, and in the past that was true, but Walmart was and probably still is cashing in on this consumer phenomenon by increasing the price of the larger quantity boxes while the smaller quantities are cheaper, don't believe me next time you go to Walmart take the price of something and divide it by the ounces or quantity, then do the same for the larger and smaller ones. You might find a particular item is cheaper in the smaller size or quantity.
I have done that occasionally and have seen that some smaller sized packages were less costly per ounce.
There is literally a “cost per ounce” listed in the corner of most price tags at Wally.
@@michaeldalton8374 If you can find the tag. The other problem is the same product many times will be measured differently to get the final price, depending on size or flavor making it impossible to compare.
My wife and I have a very high combined salary, but one thing has remained a constant over the last 5 years - we shop at Aldi 95% of the time. I don't understand why anyone is shopping at Whole Food's, Publix, etc. Most grocery stores need a reality check big time, especially Publix. Publix pricing is egregious. Last time I shopped there, we needed a few extra last minute items for a BBQ and it's a 2 minute drive versus 20 minutes to Aldi. Walked out of there $60 lighter, and all I got was some sodas, charcoal and produce. That would've been maybe $30 at Aldi.
You cant get good quality organic goods at aldis
YES!
Publix is good for it’s BOGO’s
They don't sell the Emperor's new clothes at Aldi, is the issue. The comments are crawling with people who think there's something wrong with the produce at Walmart, and there isn't. Maybe your local Walmart is messed up, that's a you problem. These people would have to let go of some real nasty classism in order to save a buck on cereal, and they can't do it.
I live in Central Oregon. We don't have Aldi or Publix. We have Winco and Costco for better prices than Safeway, Fred Meyer or Whole Foods.
Keep in mind folks Publix is a employee owned company unlike Walmart. Employees own 85% of the company. Plus Publix has way better produce, cleaner and lines are waaaay smaller
I met a guy who worked at Publix in South Florida for 20 years and he made more money than I ever would have imagined. He owns a home in Boca Raton!
I wish Publix would come to the west coast.
Recently learned that Walmart doesn’t allow Apeel or Organipeel on their brands, which is great because all the other large chains are accepting produce with those chemicals. On the west coast, Winco is cheaper than Walmart and an employee owned company so we prefer to shop there. The only downside is they are cash or debit only. If people are living on credit cards, they can’t purchase there.
@@siouxrose7766we have a regional burger chain in PNW and the managers make more than nonprofit executives with PhDs here! I love when companies invest in their employees. Some of the managers have been there for 30 years 🎉
My father-in-law works for Publix.. He doesn't own one dime of it 🤣🙄
We shop Aldi first and anything we can’t find there then we head on over to Walmart and fill in the gaps and maybe pick up some clothing! 😊
We shifted to Walmart because it’s closer to us.
We are tired of driving 20 miles to save a dollar.
And if you know what to look for there are a few people car camping in the parking lot!
I might do car camping.
$1,400. for a 1 bed 1 bath apartment.
i could be saving that
Walmart is where middle/upper middle class shop discreetly you just park your car and Walmart employee puts the bags in your trunk and you drive off ❤
I often wonder how people cope in this economy! How do people thrive, even in retirement? Since 401ks are nothing to write home about! My $800k dwindled to $250k in no time. I'm 54, will I work till God calls me?
I worked until 62, I was at the top of my income game, liked my work, and we could both go on Medicare. I ALMOST fell into the “only one more year” trap.
How did you apportion saving, investments and expenditure?
Finances: 35% in 5.25% secure, 40% stocks, 5% cash, 10% gold/silver, 5% Series I Savings Bonds, 5% “play” stocks (TSLA, HD, CCL). Key: NO debt. I don’t need my RMDs, thus, take as QCDs. . This customized portfolio was crafted by my Financial advsr (FA) to suit my unique needs and goals
Who is this FA? And roughly how much do you pay for this service?
Glen Howard Chester' is the licensed advisor I use. Just search the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
If you’re really broke, you’re shopping the BOGO sales at Publix instead of paying full price at Walmart. 😬
I do that and Aldi. Publix bogos are pretty decent. Before the pandemic though, the bogos were even 25% cheaper.
Definitely BOGO’s are really the only thing I buy at Publix and their produce is the best, but sometimes too pricey. I go to Sam’s also for the produce, organic butter, grass-fed meats and pasture raised eggs (18 eggs $5.22)
Absolutely
Walmart food is hit and miss. Never buy meats there.
Exactly! I'll never eat their meat.
But the Fed meeting today told me food is only up 2%! /s 🤪
More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.
The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.
This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.
How can I reach this person?
‘’Aileen Gertrude Tippy’’ is her name. She is regarded as a genius in her area and works for Empower Financial Services. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
I checked Aileen up out of curiosity and i must say i am impressed by her Credentials. i emailed her already, waiting on her response.
To be fair, Publix makes really great bread.
And subs. Publix subs are delicious.
Aldi, and Walmart, if I have time it's gonna be Aldi 100 percent of the TIME!
I often use Instacart to shop Aldi here.
Though be careful with toiletries, their women’s deodorant and dove soap was like a dollar more than Walmart. I keep the Walmart app open when I go to Aldi just to double check
The Aldi in my neighborhood has not opened yet. I will definitely check it out once they open soon.
I wish I had an aldi to shop at.
The Aldi’s around me suck. I shop Walmart
Campbell soup is poison, American bread is poison too. Mom and Pop stores are finished in Florida
Have you seen the You Tube podcast by Dr. Dhand? He says U.S. food is killing its population.
Red meat is a Class 2 carcinogen.
Better meat, better produce, better bread IS NOT at Walmart
SURVIVE
Well at least you don't have to choose between leaving the eggs or the stake on the shelves at Walmart 😂
We grow our own produce and purchase our meat at the farm down the road. But for all other items, we shop at Walmart. Best prices, best selection hands down.
When people have no cash they aren’t looking for quality they look to survive
Substandard poisonous supposed food .. Walmart should be last store to go to for food...
I needed a box fan and some containers for my garden. I went to Goodwill thinking those items would be around $5. A USED box fan at good will was $10. Rubbermaid containers were $5.99 each. At goodwill!!!!!!! I unfortunately went to Walmart and got those same items brand new for less due to roll back pricing. I’ve never been a Walmart shopper until this year. As a single person working two jobs just to get by I fear for our future because I do t know how single moms or blue collar families are going to continue if this crap doesn’t change.
Walmart bread tastes like cardboard.
I thought it was cardboard 😮
they make it at my walmart for one dollar a loaf and it taste good.
There are like thirty options. Buy a good one.
It's no a longer a recession; we are headed towards a Depression. When I see friends of mine who make six figures, and they are cutting their budget to bare minimum; you know it's bad
Most people with six figures were living beyond means to begin with.
Bad for them.
Publix sources a lot more local stuff. Walmart does not, they prefer Monsanto and other crap.
If you shop carefully at Publix you don't have to go broke and the food is of better quality. I don't buy junk... Just basic fruits veggies,, eggs, etc.
I work for Walmart in the logistics network. Ever since we launched Walmart+ we've just been on fire in terms of the volume of cases shipped . Its like prime but for your groceries. You can have $400 worth of groceries delivered depending on location within 2 hours!
Yep. Walmart+ has captured customers who previously refused to go through their doors. People like me, who are well off and living ACROSS THE STREET from the only Publix on the beach in Broward County. Wouldn't be caught dead in a Walmart. Haven't minded that the prices for this beach Publix is even higher than the Publix on the other side of the Intracoastal, because it's convenient. But once I learned that I could have my groceries delivered at my convenience, I started using Walmart for most of my groceries. I still like picking most of my produce and bakery items, but can't compete with the convenience. Especially since most of us at the beach are living in condos and have to schlep groceries to our units.
We tried it. We also got screwed two times already.
Best about Walmart shopping ….their delivery service ! Cant beat it !
I refuse to buy Walmart. They hurt my community. I’ll pay more to support smaller owners. Big picture! Don’t buy at Walmart
last time i went to walmart was a two weeks ago someone dog took a dump inside the store and the owner didn't even try to pick it up. Ill pay extra at publix.
Some of times I'll pay the extra to not deal with warzone lol
You can bring pets into WM?
This is such a farfetched and ridiculous statement that I’ve never seen happen at any WM I’ve ever gone to, so I’ll continue saving money by shopping at WM still.
Publix is always found in rich neighborhoods.
I will forever be indebted to you, you've changed my whole life and I will continue to preach about your name for the world to hear you've saved me from a huge financial debt with just a little investment, thanks so much Elizabeth Brown.
Wow. I'm a bit perplexed seeing her been mentioned here also Didn’t know she has been good to so many people too this is wonderful, I'm in my fifth trade with her and it has been super.
She is my family's personal Broker and also a personal Broker to many families in the United states, she is a licensed broker and a FINRA AGENT in the United States.
You trade with Elizabeth Brown too? Wow that woman has been a blessing to me and my family.
I'm new at this, please how can I reach her?
I was skeptical at first till I decided to try. Its huge returns is awesome. I can't say much
Unfortunately, not all of us were financially literate early. I was 35 when I finally educated myself and started taking steps. I went from $176,000 in debt with zero savings or retirement to now, 2 years later, fully debt-free and over $1000,000 net worth. I know that doesn't SOUND like a lot, but I'm incredibly proud of it. Now I'm fast-tracking my wealth building (investing $400,000 annually) and don't owe a dime to anyone. It's a good feeling!
Wow you give me hope
Am 49..am From Las Vegas…
Please how's that possible, I'm curious
Please how do i go about it, am still a newbie on investment trading and how can I make profit?
Don’t be confuse buying the dip in a bear market, with guaranteed future returns. Just because that company is down 60%+ from ATH does NOT make it a sound long-term investment. Make sure you’re investing in great companies. kudos to Sonia
Costco beats Walmart prices all day everyday.
Good point but you can't compare. That is a warehouse club. It is comparable to Sam's Club or BJs. By the way, Sam's Club is a lot cheaper than both Costco and BJs- especially Costco because there is a labor union there. BJs may have one too.
@@tubecontributor3206 I haven't check in Sam's club but last year I joined Costco and if you do the math, it's totally worth it vs Walmart. Only problem is that you have to buy everything in bulk. Even paying the membership it's still. Much cheaper. Also with the executive membership I get 2% back and with everything being so expensive these days I get back way more than the cost of the membership. I'm sure Sam's and BJ's is the same or maybe even cheaper.
I go to Walmart almost everyday. Prices are cheaper but still higher than a few years ago.
I also go to Publix at times. Quality of produce and ppl in general is better than Walmart.
As a practice Walmart usually starts at 50 cents to a dollar higher than that areas minimum wage.
I shop at Trader Joe’s. Always. Walmart is bad for communities honestly and siphons out money which would normally stay in that community. Also… it’s ghetto
If you want to see the worst people in your local community, go to your local Walmart.
It's cheaper than the freak show at the carnival.
I eat only at Walmart… my doctor says I have 2 weeks left to live 😂

Not true: if you eat from Walmart, you will pay extra in healthcare.
They are not the cheapest place to buy groceries. HEB and Joe V's have better deals. Walmart meat is nasty. Walmart also cheats on weights: bread that is supposed to be 20oz but is 17 oz. They still weight meat with 2 or 3 oz of saline in the meat pad beneath the meat. Be happy to show you the photos.
You are correct
I used to work at ChynaMart back in the day & you wouldn't believe what they do to their food, yes it's that disgusting! Produce-Tomatoes are stored in the frozen cooler taken out in a.m, they're mushy & have bugs, they don't rotate the food by dates, WATCH THE DATES!! I could go on & on about that place....awful! 👍 😝
I totally believe you 💯.
Love HEB! When I visit my boys in Lubbock, we always go to HEB for their yummy butter tortillas. Wish we could import one to Utah! Go Texas, show the rest of the US what to do.
I consume a couple of pounds of beef per month by default from not growing up in a household of food. I use it for flavor mostly. However, I spend about 60$ per month on ground beef as part of homemade dog food. Natural Grocers is an organic store that sells a brand of hamburger titled Thousand Hills. It is grass fed from birth to slaughter. I could drive 50 miles to save one $ per pound, but I still don't trust those local ranchers to not feed GMO grain just prior to slaughter. It took much research to reach this knowledge. I appreciate your posting of indisputable information.
I buy most of my groceries at Walmart even before the “recession”. I don’t see why I’d pay more for the same product somewhere else. Aldi is also a great choice, but its inventory is kinda limited.
I do the math and buy the items I buy and buy them wherever I can get them the cheapest. I have no chain loyalty. I am about my bottom line, not theirs.
exactly.
Walmart is part of the FEW (spelled backwards). You can guarantee they are doing well with their "new" customers arriving daily.
Costco? Trader Joes? Sprouts?
We're all going to have to start using pig Latin again to hide our conversations from the algorithm overlords.
@@sociolocomtsac Costco/BJs require an upfront subscription that filters out poorer Americans, as well as only selling in large bulk quantities that Poorer Americans can't afford. Trader Joes is a "Trendy" Grocerer with higher prices than usual. Dunno about Sprouts though.
Yeah it’s the “others” that are the problem 🙄 You people are always searching for somebody else to blame, and then get mad at them when they outwork you or your kids to success.
Get hungry, work hard, be frugal, stop complaining, get ahead. And stop surrounding yourself with negative people and negative (Fox) fear mongering.

Recession are part of the economic cycle, all you do is make sure you're prepared and plan accordingly. I graduated into a recession (2009). My 1st job after college was aerial acrobat on cruise ships. Today I'm a VP at a global company, own 3 rental properties, invested in stocks and biz, built my own business, and have my net worth increased by $500k in the last 4 years..I appreciate Wrenley Alexander the lady you recommended to me..
The administration has putting so many families into difficult situations, the inflation has taught people the important of multiples income .
Getting Wrenley Alexander to help me really helped me pay off all my debts. I started with what I had left and it was the best decision I ever made.
I'm thinking about investing, What are the strategies?
No doubt!! I never knew Wrenley Alexander had gone viral. I decided to back up my assets and property with her when we met at a conference in New Jersey for the first time.
Truly facing this recession without investment is actually risky, salaries are easily spent off.. This inflation has taught people the importance of multiples income investment helps a lot.
When paychecks start disappearing, as they inevitably will, this will add even more fuel to the fire in this business cycle.
The local Walmart parking lot is a sea of trash, dirty diapers & broken shopping carts. It is also a good place to get your liscence plate stolen or your car broken into. If Walmart was giving away groceries for free I wouldn't go back.
Where do you live
I agree with you. I thought I was to only one who saw how disgusting their parking lot and stores are 😮
Thanks for sharing that. I've avoided going for decades now. The gravitational pull of unsavory and uncultured characters can be real. After a while you realize that running out of the store screaming like a six year old getting let out school recess to return to the safer highlands gets tedious and tiresome. Of course that's just my very humble opinion.
What neighborhood and state is that LOL. And lucky for you they have pick up service or delivery service. You never have to step foot in the store. That’s the part this video left out.
That is a large reason why higher net worth people are using Walmart more because Walmart invested a ton of money building out those upscale services like Walmart+.
I travel a lot and stop at a lot of Walmarts. Never seen anything like you are describing.
I live in Clearwater Florida. Aldi's first, then Walmart for groceries. Dollar Tree for dish detergent, body wash, shampoo. All huge bottles for $1.25... it's all the same. Never Publix. Rentals are everywhere. Lots of signs posted. Tons actually..
I am a dedicated Walmart shopper .... My DOLLAR GOES FARTHER when I shop Walmart !!!!! You CAN'T beat their prices....
Recession or not, I always shop at Walmart. Why would I go pay more at Wholefoods when I can get the same thing for less at Walmart.
Makes no sense to me.
I would only go to Wholefoods if there is something there that I can't get at Walmart
If we had an aldi here I would try it out. I always hear positive comments
@@jeancarloferreira9770health conscious people go to Whole Foods. If you a label reader or you anylize were stores get there produce from you would see why Whole Foods is worth it.
*Someone said that it's time to be concerned when you start to see individuals shoplifting groceries rather than big-screen televisions, and i agree. Truth is, inflation will never reach 2% ever again, maybe in the next life, but not this one. Anyone purchasing groceries and gasoline is aware that real inflation is much over 10%; they simply lie about it like cheap blankets. In reality, interest rates would be in the 20s because of how high inflation is. But then despite the severe bear market, I am aware of certain investors that continue to earn over $365,000. Wish I could accomplish that.*
Very possible! Particularly in this weak market. There are several opportunities to generate excellent returns, but such intricate transactions can only be carried out by seasoned market professionals.
It's sad how difficult things have become in the present generation. I was wondering how to Utilize some money I had. I used some of it for e-commerce business, but that sank. I'm thinking of how to use what's left to invest, but I don't really know which way to go.
Yeah, things may be hard right now, but I've come to realize both bear and bull market, recessions and economic boom, all provide opportunities to make high gains, I used to call bluff on folks that bragged about making a fortune from such down-markets until I happened to do so myself.
There are a lot of strategies to make tongue-wetting profit especially in this down market, but such sophisticated trades can only be carried out by proper market experts
I think having an investment advisor is the way to go. I've been with one because I lack the expertise for the market. I made over $490K during the recent dip, highlighting that there's more to the market than we average folks know.
Many years ago I consulted on a project with Walmart and on multiple occasions was exposed to strategy meetings about how to crush the smaller competition. Actually caused me to quit.
So, good for the consumer with lower prices but super bad for the consumers home area. Sold as progress but really a fiefdom in the making... Idiocracy really nailed a lot of things.
Yup. Then when when they push all the smaller businesses out and your options are extremely limited they’ll jack up the prices.
Exactly! Pin this comment to the top!
EXACTLY!
Crush the smaller competition was the phrase walmart used in the 1970s too. Once a walmart came to a small town it caused many small stores to close
@@katscullycorporate America has done a lot of damage to people trying to buy food and goods! One big monopoly.. all of them! Pure Greed !
The bread was apples and oranges. The publix loaf you referenced was sourdough versus wallywold's plain white bread. Agree with the other sentiment, wallyworld has better prices on most of their food stuff. You have to shop sales at the other stores. Aldi's is a great resource and their meat is better than wallyworld, imho.
Every time I hear US grocery prices I think you would absolutely lose your minds if you saw what we pay in Canada. Our dollar is also worth less so no wonder you see tents popping up all over the place in every Canada town big and small.
I never used to go to Walmart, but now, it's the only affordable option. They offer organic and many brands that can be found at Whole Foods or Natural Grocers at a reduced cost. I dislike having to shop at this store, but I live on a fixed income.
My wife and I don't shop at Walmart because we enjoy shopping there. We shop at Walmart because it ends up. Being 20 to 30 percent cheaper to buy the exact same items there then at places like Publix. Publix is nicer and more convenient but you pay for that in their pricing. When we both worked and made good money we never went to Walmart
Look for Aldi's. A safer option.
I've been shopping at Walmart (a lot) for years, and it's one of the reasons I have $250,000 in savings, NO debt and I save $3,700 every month......
Powell (Federal Reserve) is on camera in a Senate hearing with John Kennedy (LA) stating that their 2% inflation rate would require a 10.8% unemployment rate.
They're all about the financial life, not yours or mine.
The Federal Reserve:
Did you know it is not federal and that it does not have ANY reserves?
Powell represents a group of PRIVATE Banks…a banking cartel…every so often, a US President “picks” a person from these banks and calls it “Federal Reserve Chair”….means nothing..
It’s important to note that the quality of food at Publix is much higher than at Walmart. Publix is a legendary premium supermarket. It has a good reputation nationwide.
i buy bryers ice cream. at walmart it's 4.60 at publix it's 2 dollars more. that's just one example. and publix is not nationwide. i never heard of it before i went to florida.
Publix is absolutely the worst when it comes to prices. They charge higher prices because they can for convenience.
I'll pay extra so i don't have to step foot into Wallmart
Is that a brag? You think Wholefoods is better? Im curious your moral justification for paying more based on building..
Literally Target's business model. "We're Walmart for people who don't want to be associated with Walmart"
You never have to go inside. They have pickup service and they also have delivery service.
They even have a level for in home delivery where they’ll out the order away for you too.
These are types of options higher income people are using. They aren’t walking the aisles like other people.
@@BrBcouchfire He doesn't need a moral justification, if a person doesn't want to shop there, and they can afford not to, more power to them. I shop there occasionally to save money, but I absolutely hate the majority of the type of people that shop there. 80% of the people that shop there are tattooed-up, weed smelling, trashy looking, pajama wearing, walking diabetic heart attacks. It's not a moral debate, not everyone wants to be around people that haven't showered in 3 days and didn't even bother putting on some pants and a bra and are still high on whatever it is they had last night.
Walmart isn’t that bad
LIDL and ALDI are amazing - about 30% or more less than Publix or Stop & Shop - probably about 50% or less than Whole Foods.
Lidl is better quality than Aldi with much larger selection.
Publix prices been up. But you're paying for the selection, customer service, and not having to shop at Walmart.
Aldi is where you get the best deals tho
Walmart made many things very affordable - as a 70s and 80s kid can tell you that Walmart makes life affordable!
Money does not mean anything when you are not eating QUALITY food. Great value will unalive you faster than spending an extra .50 per item
Agreed. Its gonna happen regardless what store you go to though, unless you have a private farm of people growing and raising animals just for you, which is what all the politicians and parasite class of "elites" have. Same as China same here.
Older bread that's why it's a dollar. The sigh above says 3.98
It's not older it was never marked down, that's the original price original sticker on the bag. Says $1.00
Not enough kids are asking, "Where is my land?"
Education, hard work…
Great video Nick. Aldi is the store for groceries now. I won't set foot in Walmart. I live in north Florida.
Publix is so overpriced compared to what they were years ago. Once they started redoing all of the stores then everything went up and stayed up.
Publix is ridiculous their prices are outrageous. We shop there for just select items 90% is purchased at Walmart.
Thank you for sharing. Financial education is crucial today to show incredible resilience and discipline in the volatile market, masterfully balancing strategy and insight for success. This dedication to continuous learning is inspiring...managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 432k in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Sandy Barclays, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.
Sandy Barclays program is widely available online..
If the market has taught me anything, it's that it always recovers, but I can't seem to focus on the long run, when major factors like my retirement and my reserve are wreaking havoc on inflation. I require a solid data trajectory and solution as soon as possible.
The truth is, with this recent economy everyone needs more than their salary to be financially stable. The best thing to do with your money is to invest it rightly because money left for savings always ends up used with no returns...
Over the years, I've been a part of numerous trading programs, sifting through a barrage of information. Yet, nothing has come close to the sheer clarity, depth, and precision of Sandy insights. It's akin to finding a diamond in a coal mine.
Sandy gave me the autonomy I need to learn at my own pace and ask questions when I need to she’s so accommodating.
If you ever see an Aldi's store near you go inside to be pleasantly shocked. I have one near home and one 1/2 way between home and work. I only buy at Wal-Mart what I can't find at Aldi's. Aldi's sales/customer is almost twice that of Wal-Mart.
ALDI is cheaper then walmart. still doing mainly half costco, some aldi, some walmart. no pubix here in AZ, but i stopped going to sprouts long time ago. too expensive. and that with a 200k+ salary and no debt whatsoever.
And it's not only in the States. Cuz there are some Americans who think the crisis is only where they live, but no. I live in Colombia and things are pretty tough down here. The entire world is falling down. And it's in all industries. For instance, we have satellite tv with DirecTv. And this morning, I called them asking why a channel called "Europe Europe" was taken off the package and they told me they shut down completely, went broke. Them as well as "Film and Arts". People might think this is nothing but add all the fast-food chains that are closing, car manufacturers like Jeep that are closing. We're literally living the end of the world.
Publix is a joke. But that walmart bread is nothing but a bag of dirty air..
Nope. We shop at Aldi and Lidl. When we lived in Miami, everyone I knew, even the rich folk, shopped at Aldi.
“I went to Publix… and I looked at the prices”
There’s the problem. 😂
I hate shopping at Publix, but I would never buy meat at Wal mart. One reason Publix has expensive meat is because they have first choice and they get top quality. At least that’s what I heard. I only buy basic stuff from Walmart like olive oil, coffee, etc but buy most of groceries from Aldi.
From what I heard Publix also puts pressure on there produce suppliers but treat their staff fairly well. Aldi also treats the staff well. Wal mart puts their staff on food stamps.
Don't even buy basics at Walmart, it's poison too!
True! I worked for both Walmart and Publix. Publix is a winner, if you can get on at Publix, take it, they actively promote from within and only associates can buy stock and they treat their employees well! Walmart does not care about you, they will push you until you are physically injured, then you are disposable. I have heard horror stories from people who were injured on job, and Walmart has gone WOKE! I feel sorry for anyone who works at Walmart!
Walmart has grass fed grass finished meat. I am here to tell you I'm still alive😂
@@sarahlockridge7879 I honestly cook basic stuff and eat chicken at my house which I buy from Aldi, but if I’m buying red meat to cook it’s something special and I would rather buy quality meat.
It’s just something I heard multiple times but it could be here say. I’m happy you’re alive.
@@sal7149 as a person in recovery, my sponsor has taught me to be open to new experiences. Perhaps exploring Walmart might be something you can try. I do know that my current hometown Walmart is 100% better than my previous town, so it can also depend on location.
Everyone in Florida knows Publix charges astronomical prices but we still go in it because it so clean. I actually go to Publix, Aldi and Walmart for different goods and pricing.
I love Publix but you cant shop there for everything. Total waste of money. Walmart is much cheaper
The cost of walmarts pricing is vast...they are known for wage theft, tax breaks and sending their rmplyees to government assistance. We pay for their low prices in other ways
I've been at walmart dc for 5 years. They pay is decent and they give a few good benefits
Publix is hands down a better quality product and shopping experience . Store is clean and customer service is awesome . The freak show over at Walmart is a nightmare experience !
That may be true, but some people simply don't have the luxury of paying more to shop in a nicer store. And not all of them are freaks.
I avoid Wal Mart as much as I can. I barely shop there anymore. There are better deals and atmosphere at Winco and Cosco.
For meat, I would pick Randalls because they usually have a buy 2 pay 1 deal. Beef is therefore under $5 per lb.
I would rather eat cat food than Walmart beef
I hate Walmart but I go there because I can't afford Publix.
We used to work for Walmart . . . a combined total of about twenty years. As much as possible, we AVOID shopping for food a Walmart. We have learned by experience that the stuff Walmart sells is not always the exact same thing you might get elsewhere. If you check the barcodes, which give you product information, you are likely to find that some producers and manufacturers of products actually make different versions of the same thing for Walmart and NOT Walmart stores. Produce, meats, canned products, clothing, and whatever else, it's the same. A lower quality version for Walmart and a higher quality version for the other stores. The simple answer is this; their "Great Value" brand isn't a great value.
