I just want to know when WalMart is going to get the price of ink jet refills down to a reasonable level.

No joke! I spent $70 last night on ink cartridges. They're outrageously high. I wrote them an email and asked them to lower the prices at all cost - hire kids to make them if need be ;o)

Just so you know, if they lower the cost of the ink cartridges and the printer vendors stop getting their cut, they'll start selling their printers at a much higher price. Those high ink prices subsidize the low printer prices because the printer vendors hope to make their money back on ink and don't make a profit on the printer hardware. Remove that source of revenue and they'll jack up the cost of the printers.

Go to Sams they're much cheaper. Better yet, refill. That'll teach the evil ink barons at WalMart (the kids suggestion was good)
