They seem to be scaling down the mix in this store.

Anybody else note the difference(s)??

btk, funny you should mention/notice this. I worked for a large consumer products company, and still talk to former co-workers who haven't retired yet. They tell me that Wal Mart/Sam's are indeed scaling back the product mix in their stores. In many categories they are going to have a store brand and only one or two national brands. The hope is to be more efficient.
