I rarely go to Walmart anymore, and only if I just have to. Unfortunetly, I have to get my medication there as they are the cheapest game around. When they started removing the fabric dept's a couple years ago, I sent a very descriptive email to them and said I was no longer going to give them my business. And for the most part I have done just that.
Maybe what we should do is bombard them with email about how we will NO LONGER give them our hard earned money and mention they need a new firm to do their survey's as those people are not surveying the people who actually BUY fabric. I've alway thought you could get more flies with honey than vinegar, but there are times that being nice just doesn't work with these corporate Einstiens... We need to protest them with our $$ spent elsewhere.
One person boycotting won't accomplish anything but if many of us did, they might get the hint when their profits start dropping. JMO
