There is little competition in the area (unless you go to Tilton and Market Basket), that I figure any addition will help. If the Walmart prices are lower, that will help create downward pricing pressue. If they are not, then Walmart will not get enough volume to justify their investment. So, I figure that it will likely help. Personally, I would love to see a Market Basket in Laconia/Gilford, but I doubt that is ever going to happen.
It will be easy enough to make comparisons on quality and value once Walmart opens and stocks these areas.
