50% off due to 9 of the 16 Sam's Clubs going out of business. i've saved our company HUNDREDS of dollars on coffee, paper goods, and other products. sure to be employee of the year.

at home i loaded up 1/4 of our freezer with caribou coffee.

in order to save money, you have to spend money. a wise person once told me.

You would think that for the non-perishable items, it would be better for them to move the merchandise to another Sam's Club rather than sell at 50% off.

a lot of that stuff was gone last week. they made the announcement, dropped everything 25% off the next day and there were like blackfriday lines out the door. not worth it. i went first day of 50% and it was not that packed surprisingly until after i was done checking out.

I think that over the past 5 years, Walmart realized that it wasn't Costco they were competing with, it was Amazon.

Walmart is the only company that really has a chance to compete against them. The Walmart haters should be happy they are willing to fight. It won't be too long until everyone turns their ire towards Amazon and their business practices.

will have to wait until cities are done slurping amazon's pecker when they don't get chosen. then after sore losers clean themselves up they'll have an epiphany.

Apple just threw their hat into the pecker-slurping ring, which will probably block amazon from any backlash from their choice.

Though, I wouldn't be surprised if they both choose the same location: Atlanta, GA.

It should be.. but it's a logistics problem. Meaning people would have to actually do things to make it happen... So fuck that.

And in the shop heaven for extreme couponers if you seen that show now off the air. Wished there was a Sam's Club neear my neck of the woods. But always near a freeway.
