In the past 10 to 12 years, Wal-Mart has gone from really not being involved in grocery at all to being the biggest player in the grocery industry.

you must realize that the past is gone forever instead of dwelling on it and regretting your failures and weakness's. Only lament reoccurring failure.

To win against Wal-Mart is not what they want to do. They don't want to go head-to-head in terms of price and brand.
