Amazon will eventually wipe Walmart out. At least that of the Walmart we know of today.
I don't have the luxury to shop at Walmart. Neither do you. That is a penalty in itself.
Well I do. as do many from my peeps on SI and or NJ. There is a Walmart in a nice newish shopping area in Bayonne, just off or before the bridge (depending upon if you are going to or leaving SI).

Nothing stops you from going to WalNart online. If Amazon blows WalMart away it's because WalMart stopped innovating. Though a lot of the products sold in WalMart are consumables people want to pick up immediately.

Maybe they'll team up with Google, or something, to counter Amazon. Then Amazon will buy Target. Then Google will buy BJs. After which Amazon buys CostCo. A never ending cycle of takeovers. Sounds real innovative.
I think it's bothering someone that they're dropping prices. That 'exclusivity' they had because of their absurd high prices is coming to an end.....hopefully!

Prices were only *absurd* on select specialty items. Can get various products from around the world at Whole Foods. Want truffles from Italy? They have it. Want GMO free pesto from Italy? They have it. Want local organic ice cream made by hand? They have it. Trader Joe's can't come close to Whole Foods. Am a foodie and shop religiously there. Even better than Fairway.

Whole foods does have a tremendous variety of food so I agree there with you. It has TJ's beat there for sure. I'm just hopeful that Amazon will make whole foods more competitive in price for most of their products. I'll def be shopping there more often!
Again, will drop some prices. Don't expect everything to be $.99.
I read that they will be concentrating on dropping prices on so-called "Organic" foods. That leaves me out. I think "organic" is a scam.
But I will stroll through WF on Monday, nevertheless.
