Viral Kwik Trip Meme About Walmart Has Minnesota + WI Laughing!

You probably heard about Walmart's latest rebrand. If not...let's just say that people aren't being super kind on the internet about it. One popular Wisconsin-based company decided to add its own sassy response...and it is hilarious!

Walmart's New Logo Has Made The Internet Trolls Angry

A few days ago, Walmart revealed to the world that after about 17 years, they have revamped their logo and brand. The entire idea was based on Sam Walton's classic trucker hat.

After the logo was shown on Walmart's website, the internet started to ask questions...and some were pretty sarcastic. The reason is because the logo rebrand looked pretty much the same as what we've been staring at for the last 17ish years. You can see a few examples of the old and new logo below.

Once it was out in the world for all to view, the memes started flooding in.

Most of the sarcastic comments were curious how much Walmart paid for this rebrand. The exact price hasn't been announced but there are a few people speculating that it was over $1 million.

That price tag could be realistic for Walmart. On the low end, a company would spend about $100,000 to $150,000 to rebrand. On the higher side, it can be millions.

Top 10 Items People in Minnesota Stock Up On When They Hear "Storm"

I am pretty sure that as soon as the word "storm" shows up in the forecast, people in Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin are just trained to hop in their cars and go to the store. Stocking up on supplies becomes our #1 priority and we shop like we have absolutely nothing in our house to eat. So, we will up our carts with all "the things" and hope we grabbed enough to make it through the storm.

FYI - we will make it through the storm, and some of us will do that with Double Stuffed Oreos. Some of us will not...because the store shelf was empty by the time we got there.

Below are a few of the top items that we grab at the last minute before the storm hits.
