Nals, the comment about underground car parking at the Puerto Plata site was a joke - that is why it had a smiley. If you knew the area you'd understand why.............

So at an estimated US$20M per store, they have 40 stores?

My advice to you, don't believe everything you read. Papers make huge mistakes all the time.

BTW, the dominican version of the Walmart website is currently under construction.

Here, look at this (notice the internet code ".do" for the DR at the end of the web address : www.walmart.com.do

Why in the world would Walmart use VeriSign to do their website?? I thought they only did on line purchases..

Thanks, very disappointing site, they sell so much stuff in the stores, yet the home section shows mainly candles for sale.

La Sirena is absolutely the best store that there is. I hope they build more to put the poor uneducated colmados out of business. How dare they charge 120 for a 100 phone card.
