The rough topics' plan

My most interested topic is RFID while I've noticed that it can improve and change the way we track products in the process through out the warehouse more easier but it's still skeptical by its price of processing. Well, it's just one of my plan. Here are what I thought of at the time I walked my plan of 100 miles in 2 months.

Questioning:
-Why RFID doesn't fit most businesses?
-Do '3PL/Outsource' really save cost instead of expanding production lines or just boost up automation on delivery process for the short term? benefiting or wasting?
-What system 'Kohl's' use on return policy without any proofs need? (no receipt, no time limitation, no tag, etc.--how it works?)
-What make TOYOTA famous for Supply Chain Management?

Digging:
-UPS logistics campaign detailing
-Transportation's strategy for shipping business (ex. UPS, USPS, DHL, FedEx)
   ---featuring: USPS profit loss analysis, what UPS gain more from Logistics' campaign, which is most convenience place to go between FedEx Kinko or UPS store--better one stop service center

Reminding:
-Push and Pull process clarification
-Supply Chain Management in divided parts
  =>Procurement
  =>Logistics/Transportation
  =>Inventory

My walking plan will be achieved at the lowest satisfaction as of today it's been counting at 62.9 miles so far and it's only 5 days left in condition of below 32F (bronze level at 60 miles, silver level at 75 miles, and gold level as 100 miles), I hope I can do better in here. :)
