    Last one I was in a few weeks ago looked like they were in the process of moving to spring/summer mode. So they tend to run stock levels lower until they complete the transition. This would not necessarily apply to the grocery side. However Walmart is in the process of tweaking their [store] grocery model, in most regions.

    Did they stop buying foreign products and are now only selling products made in the USA?

    Yeah right.
    Their business model is to buy low, Foreign, or low, as a second choice, American goods, then demand the supplier lowers the price to them, and gets away with it because they are a volume retailer.
    I support the Shop Local movement.

    I try to support the local organic farmers, even will volunteer a few hours of work sometimes, that way I can see what is really going on.
