Good Morning and Happy Friday. Today we will be finishing up the documentary about WalMart and whether or not it is good for America. Last Friday, with little or no background you discussed some of the things you liked and disliked about Wal-Mart and whether you thought they were good or bad for America. Having watched the first half of the documentary, what would you say are Wal-Mart's best and worst practices? In other words, what are some things that they do that are good and what are some decisions they make that are bad? Feel free to address the following:
- their control over the market/manufacturing
- prices matter most to WalMart
- WalMart driving down the price of goods
- WalMart rejecting Rubbermaids price increase
- High Road vs. Low Road of Competitiveness
- High Margin Items
- Opening Price Point Practices
- Etc.
