If a fabric department isn't generating enough revenue it won't survive.
If it makes only a small to reasonable profit, they'll either keep it as is or pick one of a few different ways to reduce the service. The only departments that might survive as full service are those making big money for WalMart. I'll bet there aren't many of those because sewers and quilters aren't a big enough segment of the market population.
We don't count at all in most WalMarkets, and not much in others. Simple as that.
