His/her name is posted by the service desk..That is what I did a couple of months ago. He told me ours will get back the fabric around august at the next remodel.
I got tired of getting 5 different answers from other people working on the floor and checkouts. I don't think they no anymore than we do.

I'll have to check out the batting at my Walmart. On a sad note I know the electronics manager at Walmart and asked her about fabric coming back. She said No. Her department has "taken over" the fabric department. There's another remodeling being done soon. I told her about other stores getting theirs back. She did say that quite often her sales associates had to go over to cut fabric when it was there.

If yours has another remodel planned ,I bet it is for a fabric dept.
That is what is happening in ours.

We have fabric back in our Wal Mart, although its not alot, but much better than before. Now if they would just keep someone around to cut fabric. The last time I was there, I waited around 10+ mins, and the store Asst Mgr walked by and asked if I needed help. Told him I sure did, they had called for someone a couple of times. He cut my fabric for me, and did a fine job : )
