Rolling back prices

I've heard from several people that the new Wal-Mart in Rockingham is the "largest in the world." And I could not wrap my mind around that. What CEO in his right mind would put the LARGEST WAL-MART IN THE WORLD in a town best known for NASCAR racing and Bucky Covington? Who I ask you? The WORLD, y'all, is a big place. The entire Earth. It doesn't make sense. So I did some investigating. Here's what I found.

• Rockingham WM - 203,000 sq ft
• Mebane WM - 203,007 sq ft
• Lexington WM - 203,084 sq ft
• Greensboro WM - 203, 618 sq ft
• Burlington WM - 203,818 sq ft
  
• Charlotte WM - 204,622 sq ft
• Raleigh WM - 218,647 sq ft

That's just in NC. Good grief. Granted, the store went from about 97,000 sq ft (old store) to 203,000, and maybe that just boggles the minds of the folks of Richmond County.
As my friend Mollie said, "Some folks think Rockingham IS the world, so I guess we can't blame them."
