Wal-Mart Ending Layaway?!?!?!
#31
It'* just a conspiracy to encourage more people to get a walmart credit card so they can get more stuff now that they'll kill themselves paying for later.
You buy your furniture at Wal-Mart? We need to talk!
Haha, gimme a break, i'm only a high school student, I don't have the big bux flowin
When I did Furniture delivery I brought the straight truck home with me for the weekend when we were moving. Friday after work I stopped off at walmart to pick up a futon, some book shelves and one of those cheap *** tv stands. Girl behind the register saw my work shirt and thought it was funny that I worked for a furniture store but was buying furniture a walmart. I laughed then told her I was using the furniture store'* truck to bring home my walmart furniture.
Not the vibrating condoms
Wal mart has those too

For example I like Physicians Formula makeup but it is pretty expensive. I wait until they have it on sale and then I go in with a coupon and by the time they take the $18 item, mark down to $11 sales price, take off $3.00 coupon and then my 15% I get the item for about the same as the cheaper cosmetics.

the reason they are ending the layaway is because people will put thing on layaway like.......... lets say a 50" LCD Magnavox tv that costs $1999 and put it on layaway. well they have 60 days to come pick it up and alot of people will never come pick it up so while the tv sits back there being held it could be on the floor and being sold but cant because its in layaway, they see it as a loss of profits

yeah but then if they never pick it up at least walmart still gets to keep the person'* deposit...now say if they just CANCELLED the layaway..now I can see where profit can be lost.

WalMart has a lot of clout and drives a very hard bargain (in fact, they DON’T bargain). But if a supplier can meet their terms AND make a profit doing it, they may certainly have a golden cow!
"Documentaries" BTW, should not be taken as gospel. Some of them may be OK, but I'd be willing to bet the majority of them are biased. Maybe not intentionally, by the producer anyway, but I've been privvy to the facts on more than one "documentary" that failed to present ALL the facts. This is especially evident in environmental documentaries. These usually are biased by the producer.
Same goes for the news. If they don't have all the facts, they tend to make them up. I've seen it done.
Whooo. What happened? How'd I get off on that tangent? This has nothing to do with layaway! Maybe I should start a new thread...sorry!
