WalMart.com seems to now sell everything.

Unique Christmas present anyone?

I saw this story on FOX, or perhaps it was CNN, a few days ago. Apparently Walmart is trying to compete with Costco's casket market.

Gina, That's one gift I do not want to see under my tree.

Hey, dad, Merry Christmas!

Robert, I don't want one under my tree either. But what a novelty gift for those who have, literally, everything.

Cool. Which town was it in?

Here's a question, though. Will Wally World take back the casket if the customer isn't satisfied?

My husband want to know if someone can go to the automotive section of WalMart and find a Bates emblem to put on the casket so nobody thinks you're cheap.

Lol! Thanks, Gina. I nearly spewed my adult beverage upon my very expensive dual monitor setup. My keyboard wasn't so lucky, however. I'm not kidding!
