In Mustang Okla. before they removed the fabric, it was made known that they were going to take it out. There was a 3-ring Binder on the fabric counter that people signed and left notes for Corp. Offc. regarding their wish that they would rethink this grand plan and let the fabric dept. remain. This notebook was actually hand delivered to Corp. in Arkansas. The fabric dept went away as they planned. Many many phone calls had been made as well asking them to please not remove fabrics. Fell upon deaf ears. Sooo many ladies & gents phoned & wrote that they understood WalMarts decision but they would stop purchasing from there totally and that their Life Celebration selection was rather pathetic since we have such huge Party Stores such as Party Galaxy in our area. And we would get the word out for folks to spend their hard earned money in the bigger Stores that specialize in Party & Celebration Supplies. It is sad that so many many people depended on their fabric dept and now have to drive into Okla. City to get fabric. And for some, that is just not possible. Some of our rural surrounding towns have really been hurt. IMHO they have tried to turn WalMart into a Target Store.
