Does walmart even need to advertise? They have such a grip on retailspace they just need to exist to make money.

They advertise to retain their market share. Even though they're everywhere, they still have plenty of competition, and those competitors advertise.

Same with Oreos. They already won. The marketing team can go home.

False. Great Value fake Oreos are as good, if not better. Trader Joe's Joe Joe's are okay. Oreos are overpriced AF.

I actually was wondering too. Back in the day they did because they were competing with so many other bargain department stores. But a lot of those went out of business and Walmart far outpaced most of the rest because of how many locations they have especially in smaller communities where they've even supplanted grocery stores and so on. At this rate people shop at Walmart because they have to mostly.
