That tiara....!!....laughing here....
So jelly! I totally would!@mrs-b I hope that means you will join me in wearing our tiaras out and about. Costco never judges.
@missy - I think Walmart might be more our speed for that type of thing! But - you bet! I would totally join you in this!
Count me in. I’ve never been to Walmart so tell me if there’s anything else I need to know. Tiaras-check. How about ruby shoes? Is that a yes or no for Walmart? I know it’s all the rage in Costco these days.

Can't say I've ever been either. And for a very good reason....
When we first came to the US 15 years ago, we were trying to organize a mattress. We had no idea where to go, so got online and found Walmart - a store we'd heard of. We found a mattress and tried to order it. But the software ordering program wouldn't take our CC. So we called them. The girl we spoke to was adamant that they would not ship overseas. We explained and explained - "we've moved here - we want a mattress delivered in NY." We would have picked it up ourselves, except that we had no car to accommodate it and we'd arrived smack bang in the middle of the 2 largest snow storms on record for NY at that point in time. We explained over and over that our only problem was that their software wouldn't take our Visa card (a problem that has since been confirmed to us can normally be solved by doing the order verbally, over the phone). She said Walmart didn't take overseas Visa because this was America. We told her we lived in NY. She said "But you got the Visa card from Australia." We explained that Visa cards are an international card, applicable worldwide. We went back and forth and she just could NOT understand. And in the end she dropped this beauty.....
"Well, Walmart only sells to American citizens."
Bam. End of story. Never been inside a store.
I've always wanted to call Walmart's customer service and tell them about that classic.
what in the world, lol. I'm not a US citizen but have lived here (green card) for 35 years. That is the most asinine customer service comment EVER.
