Ooh, thanks Denise. THAT was my exciting costume news that I forgot to
share!
I was in our Norfolk, Va. Walmart last week, and also noticed that the
$1.00 bolt table was restocked. I found my favorite sales lady and she
said that indeed, they were keeping their fabric department and were
replacing the racks that had been removed! YIPPPEEEEE!!!!!
She said that everything was planned to go back to the way it used to
be.
So, I guess Walmart paid attention to the fact that they don't need to
be "upscale"- that is not their target market. I'm not sure what is
going on with the other service oriented departments that were under the
knife, such as paint, automotive and fish. Fish, now that's one section
I'd be very happy to see out of our Walmart. It's so bad I'm surprised
PETA hasn't found out about it!

Well the Walmart near I95 in Belair MD had their 75% off sale,
cleared the store of cloth very quickly and now has stupid Halloween
pumpkins in the rack space... the Aberdeen one still has cloth for
now. I guess it may be store by store decision. Silly to hammer the
Belair one as they always sold a ton of quilting stuff and had a
better selection than the others. But if the others don't stock as
well, the Corporate can point fingers and claim it to be a loss...
Oh and they seem to be keeping the fish section, but it a well tended
one and the fish seem healthy.
SIGH
