Sep. 3, 2006 - Won't be shopping there anymore...
We love Walmart. I imagine that if you added up what we've spent there over the years, it would equal tens of thousands of dollars. 
And after they added the convenience of picking up groceries there, well, I loved that!! (Although their produce has never been very good).
Over the years, we've noticed a general decline in coustomer service and many stores are not as clean and tidy as many competitors. But those low prices kept luring me in...you know, family on a single income, lots of littles...lots of bang for your buck there.
However, my dollars won't support this...Walmart has just announced an alliance/partnership with an outfit that calls themselves the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. I think Sam Walton is turning over in his grave. Certainly this can't be the Walmart he envisioned.
If you want to act, I encourage you to download this flyer and leave it at your local store. You may also want to take action by calling your local Walmart as well as the national headquarters.
I plan to do all of the above...and then spend my money elsewhere.

Oh, I'm horribly appalled by this!! Not only that, I'm really sad because Wal-Mart has always been one of my favorite stores, however, I will NOT support any business that pushes this agenda! Thank you so much for sharing this important news! I hope you don't mind, I mentioned your entry in my blog and put a link to your site so people could read about this. It's so important!
I will be back to visit and hope you have a wonderful and blessed week!
