So far we still have a pretty decent fabric department at our store. If yours is threatening to close I would definitely recommend letting corporate know how you as a customer feel about it.

I hope they will think twice about how many people use and want the fabric department. The investors can change things.
It wouldn't hurt for more of you too send emails too.

We are locing our fabric dept in Ashland City,Tn as we speak. Springfield, Tn lost their fabric dept a couple years ago. A lot of us made phone calls, wrote letters and prayed because we NEED a supplier locally...it just wont be Walmart. Some Walmart employees have lost their jobs for even LISTENING to customers complain about losing the fabric dept!!! I wish some enterprising soul would open a Piece Goods store close by!!! And I hope Walmart loses their shirt!!!

Here's a link to more Wal-Mart contact numbers and addresses:
http://walmartstores.com/7663.aspx
and here's their corporate address:
Corporate Mailing Address
Walmart Home Office
702 SW 8th Street
Bentonville, Arkansas
72716-8611
And I, too, spend a lot of money there over and above what I spend on fabric.
