Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
How many Walmarts on one area is enough
There is one at 1st and Wadsworth, one at Colfax and Wadsworth, and one at 44th and Harlan. Now they are proposing another at 38th and Wadsworth. Seems like a lot in one area.
Farts are funny
They wouldn't do it if the demand and ability wasn't there. I hate the company personally but they do make $$$
58th & Independence is also planned.
Sounds like what Starbuck's did and then ended up closing several.
Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.
There was actually a discussion about why they did that with Louis CK of all people. Essentially, Starbucks would find a region they wanted to strengthen their presence in, put up new locations en masse until the local competitors lost too much business to remain open, and then closed the auxiliary locations since they could now get the customers to come to one or two central locations.Originally Posted by StagLefty
What a lot of really successful companies do is open locations that don't even turn a profit. It's essentially just a physical marketing site. People drive by the location, see it out of a train window, have it pop up in nearby attractions on webpages, etc. That branch may lose money, but the idea is that the net loss is negated by the gain in online sales and the push to mall and mainstay branches.
1 per town is enough.
Several years a go they built one in north Loveland and closed the one in south Fort Collins. After a few years they re-opened the one in south fort Collins.
A cool, another Walmart with 25 check out lanes, and long lines because only 5 of them are ever staffed.
"There are no finger prints under water."
Amen, Ain't that the truth!
Makes you wonder why they put so many check out lanes in the first place, even at Xmas I never see ALL of them open. For what I buy at Walmart at any given visit I just use the self check out lanes, like I do with King Soopers, hate standing in line.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
