Wal Mart to Open in the East; Isle of Misfit Toys at Tip's

NEW ORLEANS EAST?Everyone's favorite big box store, Wal Mart, is moving into New Orleans East with the announcement of a deal to place a location at 6000 Bullard Avenue. Assuming this Wal Mart has the supermarket amenities of all the other area locations, this would be the second grocery store in the East. [NoDef]

UPTOWN?Among other events this week, Christmas-related and otherwise, tomorrow night is the annual Isle of Misfit Toys event at Tipitina's. Bring an unwrapped gift for the Marines and jam to the New Orleans Bingo Show while watching burlesque. [GoNOLA]
