The layaway items must be picked up by December 8th this year (due to them no longer doing layaways after the first of the year), so if there is a BF Round 2 on the 15th that would give them time to discount the items not picked up.
I know lots of people don't like Wal-Mart...including me. However, where do you think all of those people would work if they didn't work at wal-mart? Do you really think you're hurting Wal-Mart by not shopping there? Don't get me wrong, I don't like their business practices either. It's basically the only place to shop where I live.
