I was in a Wal Mart today in a near by city, not the one here, as I also had to go to Lowes. I did a check at the ammo counter for, of all things, .380 for the Mrs., none to be found. The guy working back there asked if I was finding what I needed and we started to talk when I saw one lonely box of CCI. I chuckled and commented on it. He asked if I needed some and I said no that I would leave it for the next guy. He said "don't worry, we have a new plan that is working well, and we have quite a bit." I was pretty impressed with what they are doing, It is not what is being decribed in this thread, but is very clever to weed out the "same ole loosers", his words, not mine. All of this is to say that I also believe that Wally is fed up with the bad press they are recieving as far as being seen as part of the cycle of reselling.
