If this is true, there could be many reasons, one being that their overhead costs are higher. Maybe they are paying higher rent for the building in TV or paying higher wages, etc. If they actually own the building maybe the property taxes are higher in TV. Lots of factors go into pricing. If you are concerned about this, then you can choose to shop at the store with the lower prices.

I recently did a Walmart price test because I heard others complain that prices were higher here than in Ohio.
I opened the Walmart ap to create an order for pick up. It was comprised of things that I often buy and the list was short, about 10 items, but a diverse sample. I asked to pick up at the 441 store then recorded the price. I changed nothing else but changed the store to the one that I previously used in Ohio. Surprise! There was $0.29 difference between the two and the lower price was here. Maybe you can try this for the two stores in question. By the way, the order that I used was about $35. |

Most large retailers have an algorithm that optimizes their profits by adjusting pricing to the individual store based on demographics and purchase activity. It is usually for "A" items - which are the 20% that represent 80% of their sales.

The comment that Walmarts buy from different wholesalers is completley false. They are supplied by their own warehouses. Should not share if you do not know the facts

absolutely. prices for anything is higher if they are in the villages.. bought tires last week. 100$ more per tire in the villages than at the tire place on 301/446.. what a crime.

For the 2% milk that you used in your example, I get the exact same results in my standard Walmart app for each of the stores and I am not Walmart Plus. I do have to change the pickup store to get each store's price. I do not get a map of the prices like you have shown. Is that Map a feature in your Walmart App as a Plus customer or did you produce that separately? If it is in the app, that is a nice feature. As I mentioned elsewhere, before Walmart "upgraded" the standard Walmart App a few months ago, you could see all the Walmart prices for a single item at something like the nearest 6-8 stores before you added it to the cart. |

Exactly the way to do it. However, the most difference in prices will be found on staples items such as milk, eggs, etc. that Aldi carries and between a Walmart next to Aldi, or similar discount grocery) and a Walmart no where near an Aldi.

I have found the opposite on some items such as milk.
