    First, in defense of Wal-Mart, if my math is correct, each SW figure, costs them $4.22. They charge us $4.88, and as a result, they only make $.66 a figure. Multiply that by 12 figs in a case, and all they get PER CASE, is $7.92

    If you think that's bad, look at their profit margins on groceries. They make money buy selling a lot of stuff, not buy marking it up much.

    I should be mad about this but since no stores in my area ever have any new figures it doesn't bother me all that much. I buy most of my stuff online now unless I somehow find something new at Target or Wal-Mart. Hopefully Target will have the screen scenes though. I don't want to buy them online.

    Its also a good thing that I hate Wal-Mart's in general too.
