I totally agree I always read the end of the bolt, not only for fabric content, but for washing instructions. I too just want to rip the tags off. When the tags cover some of the information, I keep checking other bolts of the same type fabric. Not just at Walmart but wherever I am shopping for fabrics. It usually does no good to ask the clerk, as many of the clerks do not sew and have no clue, many also have no clue when it comes to cutting fabric either. I have bought a lot of fabric from Walmart over the years, and found that the fabric they carry on a regular basis is pretty good-except for the "Spring" brand - I had problems with that.
I don't purchase what is on the sale and clearance tables.
I do the same when purchasing clothes.
