I had heard so much BSR to the effect that the tax breaks were going

only
to the
'rich'. I honestly don't think it's the 'rich' folks who are doing

the
spending
at Wal-Mart.

No, stupid Americans with Child tax credits in a spendy mood. They

bought
several six packs and some new underwear and called it a day. BTW,

most
of
those sales were at Sam's Club, not Wallymart.


A lot of businesses spend money at Sam's Club. They're taking advantage

of
the new $100,000 Section 179 tax deduction in the newly passed tax cut.


Yeah, that's just where I go when I want to spend 100,000 on new

equipment,
Sam's Club.


I never said the small businesses are spending the whole enchilada at Sam's
Club...but they do have excellent pricing on computer hardware, fax
machines, copy machines, phone systems, office furniture, appliances, etc.

Can't you expand your small mind for a second and see that Sam's small
business sales make up a sizable portion of their total sales.
