    How much of the Wal-Mart store are you going to be painting? Will you be spraying, rolling and also brushing?

    I am going to offend many here, but if you have no idea of how to bid the job, you have no business bidding on it. First walmart is very very low ball on what they pay for contracts, how many people re you going to hire, do you supply paints, to whose approval.

    Hi my name is will I just did a wal-mart super center in SC and I bid it 80,000 so if you bid between 1000,000 and 80,000 youe should have no problem getting the job but you will need a crew big enough to do the inside and out side at the same timeI had 15 people on this one and finished 2 weeks ahhead of time youe will all so need to be ready to dill with the wal-mart big wigs It will get very stressful so my advice to youe is to be ready for anything that they through at you they believe that it can be done tomarrow if you can't dill with the pressure then don't bother with it they don't care about any excuses only the job getting done. I myself wouldn't bother with them but if youe get it just have fun knowing that your are working and a lot of others arn,t good luck

    80000? 15 guys did you make any money? Just asking how much did you have in paint, and did you have to repaint the sales grid.
