their food at Costco and Wallmart, as well as Sams, which is owned by Walmart.
With people increasingly having less money, fewer will be going out to dinner, lunch, breakfast and indirectly I wonder if that will take a chunk of revenue away from those outlets.

BTW, the Walmart Clan doesn't seem to be suffering for their massive profiteering. They now own, almost every Major Sports team in Denver.......Broncos, Avalanche, Nuggets, etc etc. The only one they don't own is the Colorado Rockies Baseball Team, and no intelligent person would buy the rockies due to being at a high altitude.......
