I knew that. I have been to the corporate headquarters in Arkansas and
went to the visitors center which is in the old 5 and 10 that was Sam's
first store. Very interesting place.
They have a special building on the corporate campus where merchants
bring their samples to negotiate deals. I didn't get to go in, but I did
see many harried people toting huge, wheeled cases up and down the steps
to that building.
