Are you interested in buying your future Casket or Urn from Walmart or Costco online ?

MILWAUKEE — The world's largest retailer wants to keep its customers even after they die.

Wal-Mart has started selling caskets on its website at prices that undercut many funeral homes, long the major seller of caskets.

The move follows a similar one by discount rival Costco, which also sells caskets on its site.

Wal-Mart, based in Bentonville, Ark., quietly put up about 15 caskets and dozens of urns on its website last week.

Prices range from $999 for models like "Dad Remembered" and "Mom Remembered" steel caskets to the mid-level $1,699 "Executive Privilege." All are less than $2,000, except for the Sienna Bronze Casket, which sells for $3,199.

I believe Costco has been selling Coffins in its stores for quite some time
already, but when I checked their online sales option, I could only find the
Casket Sprays (the Floral Arrangements for on top of Caskets). :-|

lol sir francis - wellllll... presumably, one has tried (tested) a product before submitting a review...

ha ha ha..

That's dependent on your view point.. You could have purchased for a loved one and seen the quality. You would still have an opinion and hence could give a review..:)

You need not have tested it personally.. :angel9:
