Wine Announcement
Wal-Mart in the U.S. announced that sometime in 2011, it will begin offering customers a new discount item -- its own store-brand of wine. The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest & Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the wine at an affordable price in the $2 00-$3.50 range.
Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a huge market for inexpensive wine," said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at the University of Arkansas , and the right name is important."
Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart wine brand. The top 10 surveyed names in order of popularity were:
10. Chateau Traileur Parc
9. White Trashfindel
8. Big Red Gulp
7. World Championship Riesling
6. NASCARbernet
5. Chef Boyardeaux
4. Peanut Noir
3. I Can't Believe it's not Vinegar
2. Grape Expectations
1. Nasti Spumante
The beauty of Wal-Mart Wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum) or red meat (Squirrel).

Have you seen the wine in Walmarts call "Fat Bastard"? Really, it is there. Noel has some as a joke.

That's funny. I need to check out Walmart's wine section! Great seeing you Susan!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
