Wallmart sucks

Wallmart,

I know that I have called Wallmart evil in the past and I plan on doing so again on the eve of a day of thanks. I have no thanks for Wallmart moving into my community.  They treat their workers like slaves.  I could write about all the wrongs done to employees but would rather go in another direction in this blog.

Wallmart keeps its prices low by using a couple of different practices.  They pressure  suppliers to keep pri !ces low or they will not carry their product in their stores. Many suppliers are able to meet Wallmarts demand by making products of cheaper materials. Let me give you an example.  Hanes makes a t-shirt with a lay flat collar. The shirt Hanes sells in Wallmart ,at a cheaper price, must be made from cheaper materials than the one they make for other stores like Penneys,  I found this out by buying shirts from both places. There is a big price difference but Wallmart’s t-shirts do not hold up as well. The ones from Penney’s or Kohls, seem to be made from better materials. Tires are another example, Firestone and Goodyear sell tires at Wallmart that look the same and have the same name as their best sellers but are not the same. They are made from cheaper materials. Ask your local tire dealer.

I have no proof but I have heard that Wallmart also sells outdated computers in new shells in order to make more money. They also deal with companies that use child labor to produce inferior products.

I would not trust anything sold at Wallmart. Customers have no idea what they are buying or where it comes from. Wallmare is simply a new looking junk store.  I would not even trust a coffee cup bought at that store let alone food products.

I once asked an employee if they carried bike chain lube for my bike. They said no and could not order any because they did no ordering but just sold what was delivered to their store.
