[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 832382, member: 6897"] We can discuss the pros and cons of WalMart til the second coming without coming to an agreement as they seem to have both the best and the worst of what a fellow would want in a company. Efficiency, planning, very forward looking, motivation, innovation and purpose. If I remember right Old Sam started on in a little "nothing" country store and grew from there. Same type stores that don't make it with poor management or competition these days. They talk about how it use to be rather than what can we do to survive past today. Hard to knock somebody for doing things better than anybody else. One thing that does stick in my mind that only they seemed to recognize before anyone else was the value and the power of the information technology hidden in the[u][b] bar code[/b][/u]. Everything about WalMart revolves around the bar code and they work it to the highest degree of efficiency. That being said....hel I can't remember the last time I or my wife was in a WalMart or a Target store, although I do enjoy going to Lowe's and Home Depot. [/QUOTE]
