When we first got our Walmart they were saying Sam's & Walmart are affiliated but, suddenly we're hearing otherwise. They have the Sam's soda vending machines...WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!?
Wal Mart and Sam's were started by the same guy....Sam Walton. The name.....SAM WALton.....Sam's & Wal-Mart. So yeah, they're affiliated. I didn't know it till a few years ago.
