Sed, you get to sleep at WalMart. They welcome overnighter campers at the 24-hour Superstores. In the parking lot of course.

Ours has not knocked out our viable small-town economy for the town 15 miles away, but they did take out two Ames stores (and in fact the whole chain I thinik), by opening wherever Ames was doing well and undercutting prices. They'd hire extra staff to give better service till the Ames went away, then raise prices and cut staff.

Our is now like a huge general store. People sit around in it and visit.
