Is Wal-Mart planning to take over the world? Probably not, but apparently the retail giant wants to sell consumers anything, ranging from diapers for the newborn baby to a casket for those who pass.
Even porn? xD

I wonder if Walmart would be willing to give me a discount if I allow them to place their advertisement on my casket;)

I will even let them paint their smiley face logo on the front for steep discount;)

That fact that this country spends 11 billion per year on coffins...just coffins, when people are starving is appalling.

"The Sienna bronze casket has an estimated shipping cost of $99, almost the price of two PC games."

i don't know what 2 games would require $99 shipping...

"Walmart.com, We have everything you need from the moment your born till LONG after your dead!"

Tis a sad day indeed.

@icepick...I hope your being sarcastic. He is saying that the shipping for that could buy you two video games, not ship them.

@asdfjk2kjf:

Toms is slightly misquoting. "Death" is the $11 billion business, not just coffins. That includes funeral homes, funeral preparations, the special escort service many people buy. I've seen headstones go up to seven large ones before (I've buried three grandparents).

And don't forget: plots! The most expensive plot my family ever bought was $13,000, for a hillside that, a long time ago, several of my predecessors were buried in for free (back then it was just a hill, today, its a hill overlooking a scenic river and forest). And then there are those who want to be buried next to ancestors that already have people buried next to them. I know some friends who paid someone to move their deceased so that my friends could stick their dead next to some other old dead relatives.

Heck, even a "cheap" funeral goes for a few thousand dollars once you are done. Cremation isn't much better: those damn urns can cost thousands as well.

Thats why I've always told people: just nail together plywood and set me in there. Make sure to empty out my pockets for change, no one else is going to need it if its down there.
