My share is a small part ownership in walmart stock. Every three months we are supposed to recieve a share of that stock from sales. They have found a way to reduce our share by taking the loss from price matching other store from our sahre. So basically the employees are paying the difference between what one store sells a gallon of milk for and what walmart charges and matches. If Wiseway is selling a gallon for 2.99 and walmarts is 3.99. we lose one dollar.

Sad to hear they reduce your share of the profit due to the price matching concept.

Wal-Mart should set their prices as they see fit, as any retailer should. But it sounds like a bad way to boost profit by, in effect, taking the price matching from employees like that.
