So.......if it selling, who cares!!

37% profit!


I will be asking every Walmart that I encounter on the West Coast to ship me some KOMA!!!!

[ToldYaSo]

BAHAHA!!! The important paragraph in that letter is obvious:

Quote:KOMA Unwind is "PFS," a Pay for Scan item. This means the store has nothing to lose by making KOMA Unwind available in their store. Walmart only pays for what sells, and what sells has a profit margin of 37.94%.

Gotta disagree with that, NoPinkScams....to me there are two things more important:

1) look at the typeset....the body of the message is not even with the Wal-Mart logo....very obvious when you look at the date at the top;

2) probably more important....look at the address under the buyers name at the bottom....Wal-Mart's Bentonville location is not in Alaska (AK), but rather is in Arkansas (AR)! Having relatives in Arkansas, I know that this is a familiar mistake on mailings, however I really do believe that every employee at that location is quite well aware that the correct designation is AR--not AK--and I would be stunned that an upper level manager would put AK on company stationery!

I will have to check with the local store manager next time I see him and verify he received this letter.
