Laura and Marie Own and Operate a Small Restaurant

Laura and Marie own and operate a small restaurant. On a weekly basis, they go to their local Sam's Wholesale Club to purchase the food items and cleaning supplies they need for their business. With the exception of the volume they purchase and the items' intended use, this grocery shopping trip is identical to a weekly trip by their families to a grocery store. Sam's serves as a wholesaler for these entrepreneurs.
