It would be a nice Christmas Treat, for a "price war"!

Wal-Mart Slashes Online Prices To Match Amazon...Does It Matter?
Wal-Mart's in-store prices have long been the lowest in the retail industry after decades of building a massive store footprint and subsequently beating vendors into submission. That said, with brick-and-mortar sales continually being eroded by online sales, pricing dominance against Amazon is becoming far more important than in-store dominance against the likes of Target.
To that end, as Reuters points out today, Wal-Mart is seemingly embracing a new pricing war with Amazon this holiday season and now sports online prices that are nearly on par with the online retailing giant.

Re: Wal-Mart Slashes Online Prices To Match Amazon...Does It Matter?
I'm coming to the conclusion that the fastest-growing job will be FedEx, UPS, USPS, etc. Some days I watch as two, three, four UPS trucks come down my street (and I live on a cul-de-sac), and they guys are calling out to each other. Talk about a waste of gas.
And for what?!!?!??!? Stuff that will soon be in a brand-spanking new landfill coming to a location near you (or me).
I've been watching the holiday shoppers freaking out, driving like maniacs (around here, that's saying a lot as just about everyone here practices offensive driving). MK, you'll appreciate this one - my wife told me that she as coming home from work on black Friday and one idiot passed so close to an 18-wheeler that you could have barely first a peanut between the car and the rig.

There you go man, keep as cool as you can. Face piles and piles of trials with smiles. It riles them to believe that you perceive the web they weave. And keep on thinking free. (Moody Blues)
