Gun barrel city is more of a tourist town. During the summer the part timers come live at their beautiful lake houses then rent them out for Airbnb the rest of the year. Tourist towns always have higher prices. Those prices trickle through seven points and mabank on the outskirts of GBC too.
I would think it's going to have to do with supply and demand
Prices are different at all Walmart stores. The one in GBC is priced high than a lot of them. Management is under the impression this is a tourist area. However, that changed 15-20 yrs ago. I go to the one in Kaufman. It's newer, cleaner, has better variety and cheaper prices.
Yep it's a Tourist place we go out there and lake houses all the time
No idea besides the owner of the Gun Barrel store wanting to get rich on poor people's back! Also most of the time they have a very poor selection or completely out
I recommend shopping the Kaufman store over Gun Barrel, they have more of a selection of products, prices are good and their employees usually are knowledgeable and nice.
I shop both stores. Where one is cheaper on some items they make it ip on others.
