3. 0-100 sounds better though...
I'm surprised at the results so far, it seems far different than reality, sadly :(

12. Pretty damn sad that even 34% think this indane Co. is good!
I realize I talk to quite a few people who believe they can't shop for groceries, at least, anywhre else because they are cheaper. I recognize that, but the biggest reason WM is cheaper on grocery items is because they use those as a "get the customer in the door" policy, and figure while you're there, you'll buy stuff from the rest of the store at a much higher profit (even though most of it is junk). If there was no WM, more private label products would be available elsewhere, and at probably a better quality.
