Flat Out Wrong! Walmart is loosing. You are ripping off Walmart! Target
made the mistake, there fault, regardless. Walmart only made the mistake of
taking your word.

| John, we obviously have a moral gap here. But I will say this: You and I both get treated like dirt in customer service lines. We both wait patiently for a sales associate to help us, to no avail. We frown in disgust when forced to use their (...) (23 years ago, 22-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
