"Just walk/bike to multiple stores if you're poor, lol!"

No. In so many ways, no. If the trade off is to save a few dollars by running around for multiple hours per week to go to multiple stores (uses gas! or takes a long time!), or just going to the nearest cheap store to get everything they need, they're going to Walmart.

It has nothing to do with brand and identity and everything to do with not wasting precious time and money.
