I responded that is of little interest to me and I will avoid shopping WM when other stores are more convenient. Give me a break: life's celebrations!! sounds like managementspeak to me.
What a load of crap! We have Wally's Card & Party Factory here. I buy my party stuff there. It's cheaper. They have quite a few stores in Texas, Ok., La, & maybe Ark. What kind of crafts are they thinking about. You can only make so many of those foam things & besides that Oriental Trading Post has anything you could possiblity want.
