Wal mart whats going on and what you think.

So I read this article about Wal mart and my thoughts are followed after the link.
WalMart ready for battle
Now I had many bad trips to Wal mart in the past and did not shop there for many years, recently now that I've moved and live more in the country I have very FEW choices as to where I shop and the closest store to me is Wal mart being 15 min. away and everything else 25 to 30 min. away. I regularly shopped at Aldi and Target because I found them to be the cheapest around and still do!! Now Wal Mart accepts coupons but they dont double like other grocery stores nor do they stack coupons because well they just dont offer the store coupons like Target does. Man let me tell you that is the greatest feeling when you can stack coupons I walked out of Target many of times with a bill over 100$ and left only paying no more than 10$ because of this. And Aldi they dont accept coupons but they have the lowest prices around because everything is closest to cost as it can get and they dont have all the hoopla others offer but, I used to work there and I must say Aldi everyweek does price checks on there surrounding stores and will drop there prices to compete so Wal mart will never beat them and If Wal mart does not offer more online coupons to stack like Target they will never beat them either. Adding products to me wont fix this issue what are your thoughts and if you shop at Wal mart how do you save the most?
