Savvy bargain hunter Shawn Fanning (@ShawnFanning1) is known for offering tips on how customers can save hard-earned cash at Walmart.

In a viral clip, he revealed that a 32oz jar of Great Value minced garlic was being retailed at $8.36.

The product had been placed near rival brands such as Spice World.

But, moments later, Shawn was in the canned goods aisle and spotted another 32oz jar of garlic that was being retailed for $4.98.

Items located nearby included jarred beats and canned sauerkraut.

The products were the same size, but the colors of the labels were different.

Some customers were left stunned after realizing the two large jars were being sold for different prices.

One furious shopper claimed that they were being scammed daily.

And another posted: “Walmart should explain, we’re all confused.”

A third claimed that it should be “illegal” to sell the same-sized product for different prices.

Meanwhile, other frugal shoppers recommended buying jarred garlic from Sam’s Club and Dollar Tree.

But, the products’ ingredients are slightly different, as revealed on Walmart’s website.  

The jarred garlic, which costs more than eight dollars, contains garlic, water, and phosphoric acid.

But, the cheaper product contains garlic, water, citric acid, and the preservative, known as sodium benzoate.

Sodium benzoate is added to goods to prevent mold or bacteria from forming and works well in acidic foods.

Shoppers also claimed the products do not taste the same as they tried to explain the price difference.

The U.S. Sun has approached Walmart for comment on this issue.

Influencers are known for sharing ways how they can save money while at Walmart in viral TikTok videos.

When in-store, shoppers may want to consider downloading the Walmart app as they might be able to snap up a bargain in the clearance section.

The app has special clearance items and a scanning tool that can be used to find products marked down even lower.

But clearance isn’t the only way shoppers can save money at Walmart.

Shoppers should also keep an eye out for Great Value brand products.

These are Walmart’s store-brand goods, which typically are the same quality and taste as other brands but at a much lower price.

Bargain hunters also love to use coupons and The U.S. Sun has told how one savvy shopper spent just $7.31 on a laundry product haul that should’ve cost $24.81.
