Well, here's my story!!! Our store is getting ready for a remodel and won't carry fabric. I went to Walmart yesterday to see what was happening in the fabric department. Earlier they had taken out half of the cutting table, and put the sewing notions at the far end of the area, and filled the space with markdown stuff from other departments. It truely looks junky!!! Yesterday a man told me that he'd heard that they were marking UP their material, not down as you would think if they were ready to get rid of it. I asked an employee, and she said yes that she'd had to mark the fabric up. Some went up a little but the $4.44 fabric went up to $4.94. I didn't buy any, I was so upset. I then went to buy 2 quilting magazines, and the register came up that they weren't in the system, so of course I couldn't buy them. I walked out of there without buying ANYTHING!!! I'm ready to stop buying things at WAlmart. The things I have bought recently have all gone up in price since I bought them, and the advertise "thousands of things marked down!!!" But not the stuff I buy, it's gone up instead. I'm ready to boycot Walmart!!!! Thanks for letting me vent. :)
