The consequences would be that then the market for smaller chains (which was a previous complaint?) would open back up as their would be a product, with a demand, that Wal-Mart does not have an exclusive market on. That plus, online sales of the product would increase. (Point-in-case...dog food. How long to you think a PetSmart would last if Wal-Mart sold the same products for less?)
Very interesting conversation by the way! I think that everyone has brought up some very interesting points!
And $600 for a b'day party! You've got to be kidding me!
Well, she wouldn't be having one there anyway. Heck, I play Jonus Brothers really loudly and throw some glitter on some kids for a heck of a lot less than that!
