Does anyone know when this policy at Walmart changed? Their big advertising draw used to be their stuff was all made in the US and now they have everything from dog food to tires made in China. I bet you can't find 50 products in their store at any one time that is US made.

The change happened around the same time Sam Walton died.
I also remember when Wal-Marts were not open 24-7. I think this change happened at the same time as the shift away from selling only "Made in USA" products

Believe it or not, they couldn't find enough products that were being made in the US.
But that's the price we pay for having the minimum wage where it is. It's a good thing for us working class people. It isn't going to be me putting together toys for $1.50 an hour!

Odd I never knew ANYTHING at Wal-Mart was made in the U.S. Must have been their ads before they were in my area.
