"(Funny thing, the Hilo Walmart is too small, it's often crowded, out of stock, sometimes there's even no shopping carts available. From where I sit, it's "obvious" that the east side needs a larger and/or second Walmart...)"
nation wide the financial columnists have noted this as well - may not be unique to a Hawaii store.....
seems when sales drop - walmart cuts hours - more sales drop because the shelves dont get restocked.... a downward spiral has developed in some locations according to more than one financial writer... and is showing up on wally worlds bottom line....
meanwhile Amazon is gearing up for home delivery. Makes me wonder what kind of market / demographics that takes - not holding my breath - grin
I do think we will have self driving delivery vehicles in the next ten years.....
