In other news, my air mattress sprung a leak, so when I awoke to find part of my body at floor level, I decided to replace it. I wanted the same brand and model, but #Walmart had a different brand & model (less expensive; we'll see how long it lasts) on the shelf, so that's what I got. I would not be surprised if my original model is on one of their aisle-blockers.

If you haven't been to a US Walmart, most locations put display racks in the middle of the walkways, so that people have to slow down. I'm guessing that people do more impulse buying this way.

The aisle-blockers are another reason I shop elsewhere whenever I can.
