Last christmas was horriblr for my daughter because I could not give her the one thing she wanted. she only asked for 1 thing. because of the lack of layaway I was unable to afford it or even find it for her.

]]> Sat, 17 Oct 2009 12:57:37 UTC 6340583 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6267905?utm_medium=rss This is ridiclous, i will not shop there anymore. The employees are very very rude on top of all it. but doing away with layaway is just plain STUPID!!

]]> Sun, 8 Mar 2009 05:08:38 UTC 5083611 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/4614454?utm_medium=rss I think layway should be brought back because of the status of the current economy. With current job losses people are holding on to money and buying whats needed to sustain the family. Low income families, single mother's and poor individuals should have a mechanism available to make shopping easier to manage.

]]> Wed, 3 Dec 2008 10:28:55 UTC 4614454 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/4495268?utm_medium=rss I am one of those people who really appreciated the layaway. I believe that more could be spent because u don't have to have credit to have a layaway plan.

]]> Wed, 29 Oct 2008 12:14:47 UTC 4385497 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/4321384?utm_medium=rss I need layaway for christmas presents, I dont have the money to buy my family the things they want/need.

For example Kmart. Thats where I have already started my shopping.

]]> Mon, 11 Aug 2008 07:20:19 UTC 3978469 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3666177?utm_medium=rss Mon, 26 May 2008 01:24:46 UTC 3666177 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3282902?utm_medium=rss Every Since the stop of layaway, I pretty much stopped doing my shopping at Wal Mart, Its just showing how greedy they are. Im doing most of my shopping online now, where atlest half of them have layaway plans for the lower class famililies. I really dont depend on layaway too often except for the more expensive things, but I can find the same things on websights that do offer layaway., but I know several families who do. But I hope wal mart does bring layaway back for the lower class families.

]]> Sun, 16 Mar 2008 08:52:53 UTC 3282902 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/2701519?utm_medium=rss I am very unhappy about this decision. I have always depended on lay away for christmas. But this year my child barely got anything for christmas. I am going to stop shoping at walmart all togeher. I hope other people will follow, I can't get a credit card and I don't think it is fair to our children that needs christmas items as well as school clothes. Again, I am finished with walmart.

]]> Mon, 17 Dec 2007 11:11:27 UTC 2701519 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/2587814?utm_medium=rss We, like thousands of other families, have always utilized the layaway option for christmas, school clothes, etc. Now that we can't use layaway, we don't do our shopping there anymore. I would like to see layaway re-instated.

]]> Thu, 15 Nov 2007 10:15:27 UTC 2587814 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/2556381?utm_medium=rss I agree with the author. I do not really use layaway myself, but I know several people who do, and if it weren't for Wal-Mart's layaway plan, they wouldn't have adequate school clothes, christmas gifts, etc. I believe they will lose more money than they will gain due to the fact that many of the families who use this service do not qualify for credit cards. Wal-Mart has become so greedy that if they lose a significant amount of money, they may reinstate layaway in the future.

]]> Thu, 8 Nov 2007 09:05:10 UTC 2556381 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/2547901?utm_medium=rss I feel that not everyone has a credit card and is able to pay with one so this allows plp to be able to lay things aways and pay so much at a time

Another thing I hope you are shooting to be like Target stores I'm so sorry but to compare Walmart and Target is an insult to Target team members and guest. Thanks that all I have to say so in summary leave the layaway service.

]]> Tue, 10 Jul 2007 12:28:14 UTC 2101223 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/1997706?utm_medium=rss Wal Mart would be doing a great injustice to it's costomer should they stop their lay away program. There a re far to-many people who are on very tight budgets whom depend on Wal Marts law away program to help them meet their finacial restraints during the Holidays and right before every new school year when buying school clothes for their children. If Wal Mart scratching their lay away I say we boycot them just as a reminder of what ecenomic classes got them to where their at today.

It's not important. I haven't gotten much done lately. I just don't have much to say , but what can I say? Today was a total loss.

I feel like a bunch of nothing. Whatever. Basically nothing noteworthy going on right now, but I guess it doesn't bother me.

]]> Mon, 19 Mar 2007 04:22:02 UTC 1459815 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/1443960?utm_medium=rss Why? This has sure put a damper on my shopping at walmart. Now I guess KMART will get most of my bigger purchases.

We talk about debt getting worse and this is a sure fire way to increase the issue. MOreover when I contacted Walmart via phone and email, there was no response. Do they not care about these guests?

]]> Mon, 1 Jan 2007 11:05:24 UTC 1257680 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/1256558?utm_medium=rss The "phasing out of layaway" is not the way for this company to go. As a customer who has used this service in the past, I feel this decision of theirs is ethically and morally wrong. This is an economically depressed area and also the poorest county in New York State. To take this program from families who rely on this service is showing this company's ignorance to families they say they value. This company claims to be family oriented? They do not meet this criteria at all.

]]> Sun, 31 Dec 2006 12:32:39 UTC 1256558 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/1256118?utm_medium=rss I used your layaway in order to purchase items for my family that I could not affort to pay for all at once.

WE ALL must rise up and let these criminals know this is not acceptable!!! Lets use the bottom line against them NOW!!!!!

It really helps some of the new families out during holidays and during school time. I think WalMart has lost it's focus. I hope they lose tons of money and realize what a mistake they made before it hurts MANY, MANY people.

I put a layaway on for each birthday and another at about $600.00 for Christmas. I also have to do three separate layaways every year per child for school clothes and accesories. I find this a little ridiculous as KMart has no selection, and Target was for the "rich" people! Now I have no clue what Im going to do! Christmas is now less than a month away and I still dont have a plan! I hope you're happy!!!
