I, too, hated Walmart before they did this, so I don't really care about their ad or when they show it to me. Quite frankly I can get their low-quality towels & bathrobes 364 days a year. :snicker: Ohhhhhhhh, I can only hope they offer those STELLAR deals again this year.

Walmart is a crappy store, with rude customer service & poor-quality merchandise..maybe they should worry about giving all of their employees benefits & treating customers with respect instead of worrying about the American public finding out about their big, secret TOWEL sales a week early. In MN Walmart offers better benifits then Target, Kmart, Menards, the local sears, and Lowes and most other "major retailers"
We should boycott Walmart all year long, if you want to "punish" them for how they are and what they stand for. They've done enough damage in our world...I miss the smaller stores in my hometown.
Walmart has nothing that I can't get at my local home-owned grocery store....Their pet foods are poor quality CRAP, so I buy those at Tractor Supply...I can get detergent, soap, & everything else at the grocery store.
Why go to Walmart? Ever??
Nice that we read the headlines. Try the article

It's not a big funny joke, It's America and we're allowed to voice our feelings and our opinions and use our influence to express those views, last time I checked we are a democracy...You guys crack me up. Wal-Mart has every right to protect their sales data information. I do not agree with their effort for the simple fact that it could never work but I applaud their efforts.
I also applaud Brad for doing his thing. This site is great and has helped us all find good deals but it's not a right for us to have any information prior to any company wanting it released. So companies don't care and that's find, others do and that's fine also.
But this constant crying about big bad Wal-Mart is just funny.

Never said a person cannot or should not voice their feelings. I simply find it funny that Wally World has become hated because they offer low prices. I live in the DC metro area and we have every store under the sun within a 30-45 minute drive, but I still go to Wally World occasionally because the have good prices. Do I shop the mom and pop stores, you bet because there are times when I want to talk to someone who is knows about the ceiling fan I just bought or I want an authentic crab cake sandwich.
But when I want to get a $700 Weber grill and a $140 Great Outdoors smoker for $400 because it "out of season" and the lawn and garden manager says "name your price", I goto Wally World. The smaller store cannot do that and I would not want to cut their profits (small store) like that. BTW, I bought the propane tank for $10 more then Wal-Mart sold it at the local mom and pop hardware store.
Instead of trying to ban a store, you may want to pick up a book on American government. America is a Constituton-based Federal Republic, not a democracy. A democracy is mob rule and the founding fathers set-up safe guards to protect against mob rule. Read a book, you may learn a thing or two. I hear they sale books at a pretty good price at Wal-Mart.

Although I did go to Walmart this morning for 1 thing that wasn't on AD, I did get a very nice chuckle out of the fact that WALMART was DEAD. At 5:30am they had cashiers standing around doing NOTHING at all. Last year at that time there would've been lines wrapped around for every cashier. Not this year. Got there at 4:45 and out by 5:30 after looking around to see an abundance of everything still available at my local Walmart in the DFW area of Texas.
Same thing here in York, Pennsylvania. Walmart was dead.

Which WM in York, West Manchester or York Mall? My Super WM is in Southern York County, Shrewsbury.
We went to WM this morning not to shop, they didn't have anything that impressed me, but to show my 13 yo daughter what it looks like there at 5 am on BF. This was her 1st BF so she was excited. Usually the store is very crowded. We arrived at 455, at 5 they cut the plastic & people started getting their stuff. No one was fighting or pushing, because there were no crowds around the pallets. I have to say the store seemed less crowded then usual, & the energy level of the shoppers & employees seemed low. Even the people in the electronics line seemed like they wanted to be somewhere else. I think Wal-Mart really underestimated their customers & in the end will shortchange themselves.
