HOW BIG IS WAL-MART? WOULD YOU HAVE EVER THOUGHT THIS SIZE?

I was blown away by these mind-boggling statistics on Wal-Mart!

1. At Wal-Mart, Americans spend $36,000,000 every hour of every day.

2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute!

3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year.

4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target + Costco + K-Mart combined.

5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people and is the largest private employer.

6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the World.

7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger & Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only 15 years.

8. During this same period, 31 Supermarket chains sought bankruptcy (including Winn-Dixie).

9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world.

10. Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA ofwhich 1,906 are SuperCenters; this is 1,000 more than it had 5 years ago.

11. This year, 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occur at a Wal-Mart store. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 billion).

12. 90% of Americans live within 15 miles of a Wal-Mart.

**con** · 03-15-2007, 01:17 PM

**Echonova** · 03-15-2007, 01:18 PM

Wal-Mart was sued 4,851 times in 2000––or about once every 2 hours, every day of the year. Wal-Mart lawyers list about 9,400 open cases,” according to a report published in the August 14, 2001, USA Today newspaper.

Sooner or later Wal-mart will take over the government. Then we will be institutionalized by being forced to sing the western-style Roll Back song.

Yeah, I was wondering what they were up to when they made that Wal-Mart. Its literally a two minute drive from the other one, and its on the same street.

Since Wal-Mart moved into China now is the time to buy stock. They are going to $18billion in stock just from China soon and the demographics of growth are indicating a higher potential than the US, over 20% for 2 years.

In the US on average ~ one visit spending ~$31

In China's beginning ~ six visits a day spending ~$5

Wal-Mart has also struck a deal with the government to make their average pay livable. On average someone working in a store as a cashier earns ~$94 a month. That is a decent amount if the employee is single and has no dependents. If otherwise they can afford the most basic of needs but would need another form of income to live more comfortably. This has earned them much praise considering some of the other jobs available.

Yeah, my parents own a fair share of land in the Blue Ridge Mtns in Tennessee and, last month, Wal-Mart came to them and offered them major dollars for about 15 acres. Just waiting on the finalities now. Later, QD.
