Wal-Mart to the media: "Come to Bentonville... "

Listen to this story

A mysterious candy company once held a contest. Hidden in five chocolate bars were five golden tickets. If you found one, you'd get a chance to go inside Willy Wonka's factory. No one had been inside before. What brought the Wonka story to mind was word of an event tomorrow in Bentonville, Arkansas. The people at Wal-Mart are opening up their headquarters for the first time ever to a select few. You don't need a golden ticket, but you do need a press pass. Marketplace's Lisa Napoli tells us what Wal-Mart's trying to do. (Photo: ©Getty Images)
