All Wal Marts here no longer sell fabric, except one, a bit of a distance away. That one will be gone in about 6 months. I still do not see shoppers in the CRAFT Isle, which has replaced the fabric area. Mistakes can be very costly and I think taking fabric out will prove to be one of those times.

On that note, have you looked at the weight on cans of coffee lately? In the recent past a large can was 34oz and the GV brand still is - at least the last can I bought, but look at what Folgers and others are doing to the 'large can'... anywhere from 28oz to 32!

oh wait, the 'average' consumer is too stupid to notice this stuff, right? and have you noticed that WM RAISES prices before lowering them?

How about this - cough drops - during the year they range from 76¢ a bag to $1.76 - right now in our store they are $1.43.
Makes you wanna say, bah humbug....

Both of ours still have the older, nice fabric areas, andsome fo the fabric is great, som notsonice. You just have to check it over, like anywhere.
In BOTH the Walmarts the fabric ladies have told me they are getting rid of the dept, and yes I called the 1-800 number!
When they do get rid of the fabric, I probaly wont shop there at all, as our Target is so much easier to get to, and less busy. The Walmart in Janesville has lots of windng roads, people drive like maniacs, and I have seen SO many accidents there, on their corner. LOL, I only goif BF drives me!

i try not to shop there much, but when i do i find the price check thing and make sure what price i'm going to get charged. one thing i like is being able to get same products in competitors circulars for the competitors sale price.
