I once watched a 20/20 show or something similar and it was about
how Walmart would have the lowest priced items of any of the stores
out there. BUT, it was usually only the LOWEST priced item ouf of
the many on the shelves. If you went up to the next higher priced
item, other stores were comparable in price or even beat Walmart
on that item. Same for the higher priced items in that line. The item
line could be toasters or microwave ovens or whatever.
So, perhaps Walmart is nothing but a store with a bunch of "lead in"
items to draw the unsuspecting into the store where a lot end up
buying the second item that is actually more expensive then you
could find at another store.
