No longer owned by Walmart these days, got bought out via a leveraged buyout and is currently sinking in debt. Used to work there and all stores are running skeleton crews.
Best so far was a Supermarket in Berlin last year. They had Christmas stuff in store in the first half of July.
They had a good reason, though. The stuff had been ordered for photo-shootings for ads and catalogues. Instead of throwing the leftovers away, they simply sold them.

Tell that to my HOA!
So did they release Christmas snacks early, or are they selling old food?
Both!
Merry Christmas!
