I rarely go to Walmarts. In fact I can count on my fingers of one hand the total times I go there. I had to yesterday. My husband had to pick up a prescription via drive through. I need Distilled water. I darted in just to get one gallon size. It cost $1.19. Today through instacart at Wegmans, I ordered 4 more gallons. They cost .79 cent each. I thought you save more at Walmart.

This is Distilled water. Not a lot of people drink that. I think it's vile tasting. My husband drinks it. (and the cat!) That's why I buy it. I think that high price at my Walmart was from inflation. Anyway I'll stick to getting it from Wegmans

Whole Foods distilled water is only .89 cents (may be up to .99 today). Same with bottled water-which was .79/gal. before COVID. It is up to $1.09/gal. We keep some regular water on hand for emergencies.
Our local chain sells distilled water for $1.59/gal.
We also use distilled water for humidifiers and for watering the indoor plants since our water is so hard.
This is why I wonder why people think WF is so expensive.

Overall, we do save a lot at Walmart compared to Wegman's.
Don't know the price in the stores since I haven't been there recently, but these are the online prices for home delivery to me in the northeast.
Wegman's would be delivered by Instacart. Walmart delivers directly from the store using independent drivers.
Wegman's gallon Walmart
Spring - $1.19 $1.12
Purified - $1.29 $1.12
Distilled - $1.29 $1.12
It sounds to me Wegman's might want to get rid of it. How many buy that much distilled water? One gallon lasts a long time for me to use for ironing.
Walmart recently increased prices as all of the grocery stores have done in my area. I suspect Walmart's are lower in the store than the Wegman's store nearest me.

I buy it because the husband has one of those cpap machines (or something like that) that uses it, plus the bird drinks it.
A price around $1.18 is pretty much normal. .79 is beyond a killer price! I've never seen it that cheap. Even at a little over a dollar, it's well worth it. His gallon for his machine lasts him about a month and the gallon I keep in the refrigerator for the bird lasts a fair amount of time, too (never calculated it).
