OK people really? Who was the rocket scientist who priced the glue sticks at Walmart this year? Hmmmmm?
To the glue stick pricer person:
So you are telling me, that the wrapping that the 2 sticks comes in, is worth paying more than quadruple for? You realize I am going to have to UNWRAP them anyway right? Plus I am trying to save the environment by buying less packaging, so you are making this dilemma very difficult to decipher. I could also toss in the liquid glue for $.25 to make it more complicated….
I think I am going to go ahead and take the 5 STICKS FOR $.50, over the 2 STICKS FOR $.50. I asked my 4 year old and he agreed.
They don’t call me an “extreme couponer” for nothing!

Makes you wonder doesn’t it. ๐

My husband actually noticed that and said, those that make sense? It really doesn’t. The sad part is some people will still but the 2 sticks and waste money.

That doesn’t make any sense either!

I just saw this at my Wal-Mart and had to look twice. I thought maybe they forgot to put the glue in the 10 cents ones or something crazy…or at least as crazy as paying 2 and half times as much to have the 2 glue sticks wrapped together!

LOL! Ok, go look on the back of your Eggo waffles package. A serving size is TWO waffles – 190 calories. Yet, it lists each individual waffle at 100 calories. Huh? I guess you get a caloric discount for each additional waffle consumed ๐

Most people won’t pay attention to the size of the glue sticks in the packaging and just buy it because they think that it’s a bigger size. I checked it out when I went to Walmart and had to shake my head and laugh. It’s a very good scheme. Walmart knows that they will make a lot more money because there are a lot of people who don’t pay attention to what they’re grabbing. Plus, you have all those single glue sticks that are a lot harder to keep in your cart because they’ll slip out of the cart easily. It’s more of an incentive to grab the 2 pk because it won’t slip out of the cart as easily. It’s very crafty on their part.
