What is Walmart's price for the MJ? It's not listed on their web site yet.

We bought our MJs at WalMart last week, it's 39.96 in Atlanta. Should be the same price everywhere, but who knows?

Thank you. I was just curious because Walmart never sells anything at full price. 3 cents off of full price isn't much, but it's their way of saying that they're the lowest price.

Add on 7% sales tax and now is it still cheaper than ordering directly from the MJ web site?

Since 6% (where I am) or even tax as high as 10% of $40 is still less than the shipping charge, yes, you come out ahead. Plus, I didn't risk the aggravation (that I've seen mentioned in these forums) of credit card billing mistakes by MJ, I didn't have to sit through all their "add-on" sales pitches, and I got it immediately...

Last time I checked, they charged almost $7 shipping, which is about 17.5% on a $40 purchase. This despite the fact that the package weighs less than 3 oz. and is ideal for shipping, so almost all of it is pure profit.

Edit: I bought my MJ from an Amazon reseller last October. The package says it was shipped via USPS, 3 oz. first-class mail parcel rate, no surcharge. (It doesn't say what the actual amount was.) Since the MJ comes in a rectangular styrofoam box, it doesn't need any extra padding and hence the packaging consists of a sealed plastic bag, which costs essentially nothing.

Comparing apples to apples, Walmart is 3 cents cheaper than Radio Shack, Best Buy, etc., in the same area.
