I'm mixed about this however I do feel like I need to chime in....yes, we all know wal-mart is cheap but how do they offer these prices? cheap foreign labor is one way of course. and wal-mart also forces vendors/companies to lower pricing ridiculous amounts. I say force because if the vendors don't get their products in wal-mart then they don't sell anything. this also causes vendors to go overseas for production and cut cost elsewhere. so yes you might save a few cents or a buck. but at what expense to others? not to rant. I don't like the fact that Jim felt the need to do this whatever the reason. money or otherwise.
