apparently, Walmarts allure is diminishing........ "A key measure of revenue dropped 1.1 percent, the fourth consecutive quarter it fell, as Wal-Mart's namesake stores saw people shopping less or defecting to rivals such as Target or dollar stores, which have heightened their discounting pitch...".............."In a note to staffers, Simon said Wal-Mart's mandate is to "increase customer traffic, make sure our products are relevant to our customer and never give an inch on price leadership."
Is Target and Dollar Store going to be at 7/25 show? hope so.
Have a safe weekend. GLTA

Wal-Mart has lost its technology edge, according to some analysts and last year rolled back its expectations for RFID.
