The world's largest retailer wants to keep its customers even after they die. Wal-Mart has started selling caskets on its Web site at prices that undercut many funeral homes, long the major seller of caskets.

That's soo funny.

Your dead would be turning in their graves if they know you buried them in a Walmart Casket.
lol

[CityRes]

Maybe Sam's Club will start selling them in bulk??

BOGO - stock up and save!

[i_m_watching]

Can you get the chick with one eye aimed one way and one eye aimed the other way to ride the escort motorcycle with training wheels? And, can I be the next one in line behind the chick with hot pants and a tube-top, ya know, the one with the BIG rolls of CELLULITE FAT, and she can try to use that credit card that expired in 1992, and I'll have to wait to order Grammy's pine box?

If i was a funeral home director, I would charge more for the use of the facilities for those who buy their caskets elsewhere. And judging by the website peopleofwlamart.com they could probably just use refrigerator crates.

[Sigh]

I know. They tell me. I have ESPN.

This is just the beginning people. But who can blame them? With the way humans are killing off each other, who cares? I'm surprised it took this long to happen. I'm more worried about the crook who wants to kill me over MY OWN BELONGINGS, then getting buried in a Wally's World casket!!!

[WHAT__EVER]

I assume none of you have ever had to buy a casket or urn. If you had, you've know what a rip off the whole industry is. I see no problem with getting a good deal on your purchase, if you can save money, why not? The dead don't care, their dead!!

ROFLMFAO!! I just pee'd my pants.

[insane]

I heard people are just dying to get into one of these deals.

[Sick of It]

Before my Mom died, she requested to be cremated. When I spoke with a local funeral home, they quoted $599 for a small varnished oak box. My priest told me he could do better and got the exact same box for $99. Come on Walmart and cut those thieves prices and show them the true meaning of price gouging.

Mamm forgive me if I sound morbid, but we bought our plots and paid for our service ahead of time to save our kids the problem. Nothing funny about this at al,have a good and safe night.
