I rarely go to Walmart anymore. Unless the item is dirt cheap, I pay the same price elsewhere in a small business.

Yes. Once they eliminate competition in a given locale, they are "free" to increase prices.

Any wonder why Wal-Marts have different prices at different stores?

Can you provide any example, at any Wal-Mart, of price gouging?

I'll settle for just one...

Any wonder why 2 Shell stations on different corners have different prices

Any wonder why 2 Stop-n-Go's charge different prices for a gallon of milk

What is your point?
