Costco has a higher standard & higher quality of goods.  Sam's Club does not we all know its part of Wal Mart which has the cheapest low end products mad ein China.  My opinion is Costco is better.

Wal Mart is a healthy corporation with retail roots all over the world. It has advanced, built and opened retail outlets at a dizzying rate. K Mart has gone thru bankruptcy, re-orgainzation and has had many of its pricipal suppliers leave for green pastures. K Mart was originally the Kresgee Dime store chain and was fantastic for its day. It basically beat the Woolworth chain out of busines but it has suffered dramatically in recent years. \nWal Mart is the best place to shop in American, for now.

Retail stores face the problem of high rent and pleasing the people who choose to visit their store.  The people who are buying from these stores choose the items you describe, for the same reason they buy SUVs and drive them on paved roads.\n\nAs a hiker and backpacker, I am finding it increasingly more productive to order gear online.  Link below is to a story that may help you solve your gear purchase challenge.\n\nThese days I purchase dried food and dehydrated food items in bulk at my local health food store and I buy LARABARs by the case from Whole Foods.\n\nNot only am I getting more bang for my buck - but that's one less vehicle on the roads.\n\nHappy Trails.

If you can get a merchant account directly from your bank, do it. They offer the lowest rate compared to other merchant account providers -- even COSTCO. It's a little tougher and banks have more stringent requirements (some even require for copies of the business plan, while some outright denies merchant application of home-based businesses).

I'd try Wal-Mart, Sam's Club, or Pearle Vision.  I know Sam's Club has like a 3-month supply for like $13, which is really good.  You just have to look around where you live.

www.amazon.co.uk\nwww.play.com\nwww.hmv.co.uk\nwww.whsmith.co.uk\nwww.tesco.com\n...........\n\nThere are so many, and you cant really pick the best, because one site may sell one thing cheaper than another, but a different item more expensive, but if i had to choose, id probably say play.com and Amazon are the best

Sam's Club is owned by Wal-Mart, both of which get gasoline from the Murphy Oil Corporation throughout the southeastern US.\n\nI'm having difficulty locating the gas company that supplies Sam's Club in other areas of the country.

I think it's probably because they enjoy buying more than actually utilizing what they buy. Even this is silly, because then they're wasting money, time, and effort. If they turned their attention to something useful, perhaps these shoppers would have better things to DO!!!

Some items are cheaper than at other places, but my expirience tells me their quality is also a lot cheaper. I've bought things at wallmart that are supposed to last forever and had to replace it within a year. You're usually better off spending a tiny bit more to get a lot more quality.

1) Convience (Don't leave home or work)\n2) Better photos and descriptions of items.\n     You can see all of the available items \n3) Have your purchase delivered to your home or work\n4) I like to buy things on line because I can research the products that are out there easier, and there is no pressure to buy now!  I find that it is best to deal with companies that have a physical site because they are easier to work with if there is a problem.

Furniture has one of the highest dollar per item markups around. Don't think in terms of the percentage of the retail price that is eaten up by product cost, think in terms of how many dollars you get out of one sale in comparison to how many sales you can expect in a day. Furniture stores have less overhead, and more gross profit per sale than just about any other type of business. It takes a long time, and really poor marketing to make a furniture store go out of business. They're one of the safest business models around.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants/Retail/Bars\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com
