I don't think that the developer gets a piece of every dollar spent. If it's like most real estate transactions, the developer simply rents the land to Wal-Mart.

Residents that have cars will continue to shop at the Wal-Mart on 27/441. Some, and I think very few, that do not have cars will not shop at Wal-Mart at all or they will get their friends to take them to the one on 27/441.
