I remember when Wal-Mart first came to PA. I remember the ad campaign. Wal-Mart promised "Made in the U.S.A.". That stopped shortly after Sam Walton went to the great Super Center in the sky.
FlowingData has a map that shows the growth of Wal-Mart and Sam's Club over the best 40-some years. Very cool to watch (in a War Games kinda way). Interesting if you pan around the map or zoom out. There are several Wal-Marts in Puerto Rico. Hawaii seems to dig Sam's Clubs.
