## Wal-Mart used to sell off all their plants and trees (very
reasonably)
late in the season. You could get great deals. Then one of the long
time
employee there told me they stopped that! They now trash them rather
than
mark them down. They do that to stop people from WAITING until the mark
downs. Can you believe the GREED of Wal-Marts owners/stockholders?She
told
me this when I asked her about a huge pile of shrubs, trees and large
potted
plants behind the building.


What's the difference between your greed to get a bargain and the stock
holders greed?
===========================
There is no GREED when you get or look for a bargain. A bargain benefits
BOTH sides, not just one side. The items are sold cheaply and the store
doesn't take a loss, or worse yet, dishonestly claim a loss from their
insurance Co. The person gets a good deal on the item and saves money that
they're usually end up spending in the same store on something else.
