Wally-World!

This episode of frontline was very interesting 2 me and it made me really re think my thoughts on walmart. I didnt realize how competitive they were and how they really treat their employees not the best.

They as a company are really not the best people to buy or sell from. They pressure all of there suppliers to give them the lowest prices possible. This shows that they are very cheap. It also showed that this company bullies many of there suppliers. They just do it to like I said before, get the cheapest stuff possible. So we are out at walmart buying the cheaper version of different stuff.

However they do in this show to us that walmart is not always the lowest price. There is a lot of fishy things that happen at walmart. They price-match. They have different aisles were there are lower priced items but they hide them and put the highest priced items in a more noticeable spot. They call these "side aisles".

I think in my opinion as horrible as frontline made walmart sound, I think that america would suffer without it. Many people from from the lower class shop there for there low prices (even though they could be lower). So many jobs would be lost. I think that walmart is a good place to go. People should appriciate it.
