The lady in the Fabric Dept. said that the founder of Wal-Mart diied and that his son (s?) took over the business and don't feel that a fabric
department is bringing in enough. (and a Party Department will?) Ours will close at the end of April. I think the new owners will be in for a big
surprise! Here on Long Island, New York, we have a party store on
practically every corner!
There is a Jo-Ann's next to our Wal-mart. They keep raising their prices!
And now without the Wal-mart Fabric Dept, they will raise them even higher. I'd rather eat dirt than pay higher prices at Jo-Ann's.....

Wal-Mart corporate does not have a friendly customer policy. They come in and price the local shops out of business, and then close down departments and force customers to shop what THEY decide you want! I choose not to support them. :?

The Wal-Mart petition is still alive
http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_pe....cgi?savefab&1
over 42,000 have signed it, but the last signers were in April 2008, so the past year has dragged on and no one is paying any attention to the people who have opposed their corporate decision. What a shame!
Whatever happened to "the customer is always right?"
