This pro-Walmart flyer was e-mailed to me last night. It’s a slick piece of promotion from the nation’s largest retailer. As expected, Walmart is trying to rally support for its upcoming “community open house” at the old location of the Great Indoors, in the Empire Center, Monday, October 17, at 5 p.m. This location is the designated site of a new Walmart.
Meanwhile, the “No Walmart in Burbank “group is holding a fundraiser this evening at the Flappers ComedyClub in Downtown Burbank starting at 8 p.m.

An evening of comedy and fun is planned. The “suggested donation” is $12. And all proceeds reportedly will be”…used to help stop Walmart.”
So the battle is on between supporters and opponents of Walmart. The open house next Monday is shaping up to be quite a showdown.
