All about WALMART

Originally created with the intent of selling a high volume of products at a low price in the 1960s, Walmart continues to offer its customers very good prices on its goods today. They offer a huge range of products, from everyday goods and clothes to things like prescriptions (via Walmart Pharmacy) and food (at Walmart supermarkets). Some locations also have restaurants inside so shoppers can grab a bite to eat while they get their shoping done. Others even offer gas stations outside to make the whole experience a one-stop shop. 40% of what's sold at Walmart are private label brands made just for them, such as the popular Sam's Choice drinks. They've even produced two movies aimed at family audiences that included proomotion of their products. With thousands of stores all over the U.S., the chances are good that there's a Walmart near you in your city or town.
