    Emphasis mine.

    …prices on items will be exactly the same for every consumer in every store.

    Has any reporter for any major media outlet asked Walmart how price increases will actually work? I have a scenario: there’s a hurricane. Prices for water go up ~5% in nearby stores mostly used by middle-class people. Meanwhile prices go up 75% for stores with poor customers.
