well, lets see, they put one in by my house about 5 years ago, and so far, 3 local nurseries, 2 local pet stores, and 3 local record stores have gone out of business directly from that. they ruined the life-work of all of the owners of these local businesses by undercutting everyone in town.

They directly drive people out of business by selling below cost until all the local competitors fail, then they jack the prices up.
They drive companies out of business who actually care about the people they employ, and pay them a living wage.
All their stuff is cheap Chinese crap made by people who are basically slaves and get paid almost nothing.
Sure it's great to get really cheap goods, until your wages get driven down or you become unemployed.

I have been guilty of Wal Mart shoppin too, but I'm a college student so I have an excuse. Here's my cheap greenhouse. Better that a tub method.
This is a way to make a greenhouse cheaply that works great. Here's what it looks like:


As you can see I have 3 plastic hoses going from the vicks coolmist into the GH, one to each level.
What to get: this 4 tier plastic shelving thing at Wall Mart for $10.
plastic drop cloth-$1 at wall mart, in the paint section
Duck tape
You can cut the plastic support tubes to any length you need with a hacksaw.
This is about 3.5' tall and tucked neatly into the corner of my closet. You can fit a lot of casings on here.
I cut holes in the top 2 levels with a razor knife to promote airflow. It was a pain in the ass, so it's up to you if you wanna take it on or not. All you do is use your duck tape and plastic sheeting to enclose the whole thing. The only edges that aren't permanently taped down are the left vertical edge and the top horizontal edge. This is so I have a flap to open. I close the flap by taping it in three spots along the left side. Put tape on the plastic of the left wall in the spots where you will tape to sothat you can repeatedly open and close the flap (it will rip the plastic if you don't, and it sticks firmly to duck tape backing and can be removed many times before replacing duck tape strips). The only ventilation hole is a very small one in the bottom left corner above the bottom shelf. A little air will leak along the flap edges too. This keeps positive pressure in there and keeps the humidity at 96% for me.
Water pooling at the bottom is not a problem. There is hardly any condensation and the humidity stays high.
Hooking up those hoses without damaging the coolmist was a big ordeal, so I don't wanna get into that right now. A lotta duck tape mostly. I think having even mist distribution at each level is helpful though. The vicks CM was $26 by the way.
This beats the crap out of a monotub in my opinion and takes up less space on the ground.
Also, if you don't wanna mess with hookin up tubes from the CM, you could just set it in the FC on the top or bottom shelf. You still have plenty of room for your shrooms.
Shroom on
