** IMPORTANT RESPONSE FROM WAL-MART STORES REGARDING LAYAWAY** It's really important to everyone here at GottaDeal that our friends can get the information they need and deserve. I wrote out to Wal-Mart stores a few hours ago trying to get a response from the company confirming this. The e-mail just asked a simple question, requesting a simple answer. The Customer Support department was prompt in getting back with me regarding this issue, and they made this statement regarding the Layaway Department! The Layaway Department at Wal-Mart will be phased out after the Christmas season. Everyone will be able to put items in Layaway at your local Wal-Mart store until November 19th, 2006. After November 19th, 2006 you will not be able to place any new items into layaway. As you might of noticed, this is just a few days before Black Friday 2006. So, please - if you need Layaway to make sure your family will enjoy Christmas as they should, please visit Wal-Mart today and put the items you need on layaway!
