Actually, I use Great Value products on a regular basis, but with two caveats: 1) I NEVER use generic dairy products (which is almost all of what you said you have tried) and 2) I never expect name-brand quality or performance from generic products.
You seem to have gone into these purchases without the correct mindset. While generic products can sometimes be a good way to save money, you never consider them an equal replacement for the real thing - that way you aren't disappointed when they don't perform well, but you are pleasantly surprised when they do.
With that said, however, I have used many Great Value products in the past and continue to do so now that I have been happy with including, but not limited to, cereal, kool-aid, uncooked pasta noodles, etc. I have also used Great Value products that I have been very unhappy with including, but not limited to, paper towels, paper plates, some canned vegetables, etc.
It is definitely a trial-and-error process with generic products and you have to be willing to put the time and effort into finding which ones will work for you and which ones won't. Otherwise, just purchase name-brand.
I hope your experiences get better!

Wal-Mart mails medication? I live in Florida, is this a service only available in Idaho?
My grand kids and husband love the BBQ great value chips. We always buy the multi-pack for the value. Well this weekend we had a ball game and I bought one of these big multi-packs. Turned out to not be such a "great value". Ten of the 22 bags only had 3 small chips in each bag. I'm not sure if I will buy these again. Sorry!

I actually am in the process of trying to find out exactly where I can go to complain about the Great Value Tuna in water. I have, in the last 10 cans of tuna I have opened, found scales (not just one, but several) and bones that are almost an inch long. I understand that this brand is not "name brand" and isn't of the BEST quality, but there still should be standards. I haven't had problems with them before and as a family that LOVES tuna, I would hate to have to spend a dollar or more for a can of tuna just because Walmart/Great Value can't seem to put a little effort forth to provide a quality product.
WalMart does NOT take all coupons. I was just there and since the COMPUTER wouldn't accept my coupons, they refused to take them. They did not expire, and I had bought these same items a few months ago with coupons and every thing worked fine then...why not now!
So you're saying you walked up to the man took his camera and took the initiative to turn him into Walmart and post a complaint on a website but didnt feel it was worth a phone call to the local police who could ACTUALLY do something? Sounds like a made up story to me.
We purchased a bag of your Great Value white tortilla chips 13 oz best by 09-23-12 (02061g) and when we tasted them..They tasted like they were a 100 years old..I smelled of them and they smelled like old stale grease or lard that had turned bad...I checked the expiration date and it wasn't that..Just wanted you to know...
Was in line at Walmart in Oakland TN. Three lines were backed up because the cash register said "pending" on coupons. The cashier said this had been happening for three days and she was ready to quit. A customer walked out and left a full basket of groceries. When the manager was called over, she said it was going to be the last transaction she was going to deal with on coupons. This is ridiculous. I waited in line for thirty minutes while the couple in front of me waited for a manager to resolve a coupon for $3. It was current and they had the correct item! Horrible service.
MOUNT VERNON WA. WALMART HIRED A SEX OFFENDER HE WAS A CSM AND HIT ON ALL THE MINORS THAT WORKED THEIR. IF U HIT ON HIM BACK U GOT AWAY WITH MURDER AND IF U DID SEXUAL FAVORS FOR HIM U GOT TO SLACK OFF TAKE AS MANY PAID BREAKS U WANTED. HE WAS WANTED IN TEXAS FOR A FELONY WARRENT AND HIS CHARGES WHERE FOR MOLESTING HIS STEP CHILDREN. HE HAD THAT WARRENT WHEN WALMART HIRED HIM. WALMART DONT DO DRUG TEST OR BACKGROUND CHECKS IF THEY DID ALOT OF EMPLOYEES WOULD BE UNEMPLOYED. I HAVE SEEN SOME CRACK HEADS THAT WORK AT WALMART U ONLY HAVE 1 UA WHEN U GET HIRED AND A UA IF U GET HURT THATS IT.
Just wanted to let everyone know that I just bought the Great Value brand Kcups...do not buy these! They do not work! Water doesn't flow through the cup!

Have four markets locally, Albertsons, Food Basket, Snappy Mart, and Walmart at which we buy milk.. Whole and 2%. Walmart milks seem to be watered down.
Did a four store milk test, Albertsons, Food Basket and Snappy Mart milk products had a taste to them; Walmart tasted like bottled water with white coloring.
Are we the only folks who have noticed this?
Another thing, the pull tab seal that Walmart uses on the containers are very difficult for seniors to remove.

Walmart is always eager to let us know the product is distributed by Walmart but we never know what foreign country it is from or what contents are in the product, especially food pproducts. Walmart, tell us where and what company it's from.

Walmart milk always has tasted watered down to me... my guess is that they put the bare minimum amount of "milkfat" and max allowable amount of water. Whole milk tastes like 2%, 2% like skim, never tried anything less but it's probably "skimmier" than skim.
Great Value? I don't think so...food supply in this country has been hijacked by industry for the sake of the almighty $! I know your fruit is genetically modified so it will have a longer shelf life; be more resistant to pesticides in the field/farm/on the vine or tree even corn is now capable of making its own pesticides! I know it sounds like something from a science fiction movie and I am not going to waste my limited energy trying to convince you; I AM going to use what little strength I have left trying to undo what complacency and deregulation has done to me. FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF! Wake up America, it's big industry who makes us crave junk; it is not your fault and has nothing to do with your lack of willpower! It is them who is making us fat and overfed and undernourished and SICK! GREAT VALUE indeed!...
I hadn't bought milk in while, but I got a new kitten. So I recently purchased a half gallon of Walmart milk whole milk. Something struck me weird when I poured myself a glass but I never guessed it would taste totally like water when I tried it. I am still in shock that this milk tastes like water and sought out this site to see if I was imagining things. Not sure what I should do, but I'm not drinking it. Might ask my neighbor to confirm my suspicions. Wonder if they will take it back.
I totally agree with everyone on Walmart's so called "Great Value". Walmart boast of Great Quality, Great Price, Guaranteed. I recently purchased the great value Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwiches. They are awful! The chocolate wafer was like eating cardboard and just as hard. The vanilla ice cream had no flavor at all. I guess it is true what they said you get what you pay for. I will never purchase the Great Value's at Walmart again. These are of no real value and taste even worst. There is nothing of any great quality or price with this product. It a real waste of money and of my time.
I use Great Value products on a regular basis, they are great bargain items, but i have to complain on the Great Value water bottle it has change it taste as tap water or something they took out of a water well not filter
in the last three week i had to change water bottle from Great Value to Aquafina. Just because here in Franklin, NC.28734 they did not had any answer for me on this awful taste of water some day i might just go and have this water tested for bacterias see if Walmart would take a look of what is been pour in this water bottles with Great Value labels
till know i would Stay with Aquafina or Dasani water bottle
please take the time to read this message and get the issue resolve before some one get sick of drinking this water
I just opened a can of Great Value peach slices in heavy syrup this morning. I had been buying this brand occasionally and most times it was OK. The juice in this can was dark in color and didn't look at all appetizing Very questionable to my way of thinking. I took a tiny taste of it, and it is horrible. Tastes sour! Very BAD ! Should be clear and sweet. This is something that would make me sick I am sure. Big waste of $1.72 if you ask me. From now on I will pay a little more for a brand name that I know has high quality. Where am I getting a Great Value or saving money when I have to throw food away? That doesn't compute! In response to some of the previous posts though, I have never had a problem with Great Value whole milk from the dairy case. Perhaps I have been fortunate so far. Never purchase their bottled water either. I know people who have well water and I just stock up on water when I am visiting them.
I just found a piece of what looks like a bone in a can of great value tune.

Some GV products are alright, but GV milk is awful! I got a gallon of 2%, which is what I normally drink, and it had a thin texture like water with a less sweet taste, like it wasn't fresh.
i openedcontainer of diced peaches and found a tiny bug in it what are you going to do about it? my email is nanner_pie2@yahoo.com
I just purchased a bag of Great Value pistachios that I wasnt happy about.. I knew that buying the store brand would probably mean a deduction in quality but not quantity. My 12oz bag contained three quaters of empty shells. As I was eating them and noticing the emplty shell I thought that maybe the nuts had fallen out the shells during shipping and that the bottom of the bag would be filled with the missing nuts. Let me tell you that was not the case because I found only a few nuts without the shells a the bottom.The question I have is how much of the 12oz weight did the empty shells account for? Feeling cheated !
I have purchased Walmart's Great Value Natural Whole grain brown rice in 5 lb. bags. Twice I have experienced moth larvae hatching inside a closed bag! The first time it happened my bag had been opened. I used some rice then always reseal it with a twist tie to keep the air out. I thought maybe moths had somehow gotten in there from my home. But the 2nd time it happened, the bag was SEALED! I didn't see just one moth larvae - there were dozens! When I cook brown rice I do not want to be eating bugs! You can't detect the moth larvae until they hatch because the little bugs look so much like a grain of brown rice - until they hatch! This is horrible! I will never buy this brand of rice again!
How do you (the Great Value company) get away with selling this? Things that are organic are NOT ultra-pasteurized and ultra-pasteurized foods aren't organic. These are 2 conflicting things posted on the same product and most people don't pay much attention to it. But this is clearly a FALSE advertisement, which is illegal, by the way. So how did you get away with this?
This product claims to Fresh Seal. None of the bags in my box sealed. Needed to use as I've pack and water poured out of every one! They do not seal!
Walmart, I've about had enough of this. this is the 3rd time that I've bought a 12 back of your 100% Arabica French Roast Ground Coffee . opened it when I got home only to find 10 k-cups in it instead of the 12 it says are supposed to be in it! i'm a big coffee drinker and get more than annoyed when I get robbed of my coffee! either you send me what I already paid for or i'm shopping at Meijer from now on! as they say, 3rd time's the charm.
