I put "Boston MA" into the store selector, and it told me that Lynn MA was the closest. It shows as $4.48/lb for the store brand. The Hormel brand name stuff is $4.98/lb.
I see, your point was that the price of bacon at a Walmart cannot be that low because there are no Walmarts in the actual city of Boston? And you are implying that you answered "definitely" despite knowing that the price was correct for the greater Boston area? And that you don't care that 99%+ of the world refers to the entire Boston area as "Boston"? If this was the point you are making, please consider being clearer in the future that you are not contributing useful local knowledge but just being a pedant.
A no-frills pack of bacon at Whole Foods in Cambridge is currently $6.99 not on sale (unless their online / delivery prices are radically different than in-store).

Definitely not Boston
I just went to walmart.com and searched for "bacon": https://www.walmart.com/search?q=bacon

Why do you say "definitely"?
Because Lynn is definitely not Boston

I had no idea what the price was in Walmart. My point was even I get sticker shock on a high tech salary.

Yes, the prices too seem to fluctuate. And I just assumed Whole Foods was more expensive.
