For all you wine lovers out there, this is note-worthy!!!! Wal-mart announced that, sometime in 2007, it will begin offering customers a new discount item -- Wal-Mart's own brand of wine. The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with Ernest & Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the $2-$5 range. Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to buy a bottle of Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but"there is a market for inexpensive wine," said Kathy Micken professor of marketing at University of Arkansas , Bentonville. "But the right name is important." Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart wine brand. The top surveyed names in order of popularity were: 10. Chateau Traileur Parc 9. White Trashfindel 8. Big Red Gulp 7. World Championship Riesling 6. NASCARbernet 5. Chef Boyardeaux 4. Peaya Nomore 3. I Can't Believe it's not Vinegar 2. Grape Expectations 1. Nasti Spumante The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum) or red meat (Squirrel). P.S. Don't bother replying that this is a hoax. I know possum is not a white meat |

I'd opt for the Peaya Nomore. I cant afford to pay attention much less buy wine. Will they have the smiley face stickers on them, you know, the ones with blood shot eyes? |
