Bullshit. Walmart can sell for less because they pay less because
they buy in greater volume than everyone else. Anyone thinks the
Scope mouth wash at Walmart is lower quality because it's priced less
than elsewhere is nuts, probably having an eliptical fit... until
today I didn't know the dwarf was in orbit, however aren't all dwarfs
kinda ovate? LOL

Especially the knees, eh, dwarf? hehehe

Levi makes many styles of jeans using different weight denim... dwafs
like you who claim to have a nice ass probably wear denim with
spandex... they ship the same quality product to every store....
Walmart probably sells mostly if not all the lower weight denim
styles, obviously lower weight denim costs less but wears faster. Most
folks, especially rugrats, don't need the heavy duty denim, they
outgrow them so fast they never get to wear/wash them out and often
the style is not to wear washed out jeans... mostly out grown out of
style jeans get passsed down or donated so why pay top dollar for
something one can't use up. Folks who want to wear their clothes
month after month, wash after wash, year after year shouldn't be
buying their clothing from Walmart... buy those at a store that
specializes in workman/contractor clothing, they'll have the original
heavyweight Levis... they'll also cost a lot more than the light
weight styles from Walmart.

WOW... Levi has more kinds of jeans than I can count:
