While Kmart drops its ammunition department, Wal-Mart is willing to pick up the slack by not only providing the buckshot, but the booze to sling back beforehand, all in one convenient location!

================

BENTONVILLE, ARK (AP) - Some Wal-Mart customers soon will be able to sample a new discount item -- Wal-Mart's own brand of wine. The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with E&J Gallo Winery of Modesto, Calif., to produce the spirits at an affordable price; in the $6-8 range. While wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to throw a bottle of Wal-Mart brand wine into their shopping carts, there is a market for cheap wine, said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at Roger Williams University in Bristol, R.I.

She also said: "The right name is important."

The top 15 suggested names for Wal-Mart Wine:

15. Box O' Grapes

14. Chateau Traileur Doubel-Wyde

13. White Trashfindel

12. Big Red Gulp

11. Grape Expectations

10. Domaine Wal-Mart "Merde du Pays"

9. NASCARbernet

8. Chef Boyardeaux

7. Peanut Noir

6. Redneck Rose'

5. Chateau des Moines

4. Martha Stewart's Sour Grapes

3. I Can't Believe It's Not Vinegar!
