(KNUE-FM) Everyone in Texas is trying to save a few dollars and make their paycheck stretch as far as it can right now. We all work hard for our money, and we would rather that money stay in our account instead of handing it over to a big company like Walmart.

There will always be some people who don’t like Walmart for various reasons, I will admit that I appreciate the “rollback prices” they offer since they are so large and can buy in bulk, I’ll take any savings I can get.
