That may be, I don't know. It was in our local paper about the Wal-Mart company closing out several depts.
*The tire and lube area
*The layaway
*The fabrics & crafts
We asked at one of our local Wal-Mart stores and the lady said that the layaway would be for online merchandise or something like that - I also heard it would be for furniture and appliances. I never heard what the tire and lube area would be.
She said that all new Wal-Mart stores that are being built, are being built w/o the fabric section. And all stores that have it now, it is gradually getting phased out....she said that in that store, toys would take over where the crafts/fabric were and the what crafts they would keep, would go on the few aisles that had toys. She said most Wal-Marts stores will be seeing a new layout.
So, I really do not know....I wonder if they have anything about it on their website? Probably not, huh? We go out of town just about every weekend, and we are always stopping at a Wal-Mart some where, so I think I might start asking just to see.........would that be weird??!!
