Probably made from our discarded medical waste and those red "sharps bins"one sees in the Doctor's office........................damn clever,those Asiatics.

From China, no doubt. I think the Chinese are trying to kill us all and they're using Walmart as their agents . . . .

chemical reaction to neoprine. Then again they were made in China from tainted dog food and discarded Mattel toys.

Well I never darken the door at Walmart, this just proves that its a good policy.

10 people out of 7 MILLION had an allergic reaction to the plastic. Yeah, real good reason to avoid Wal-Mart. :rolleyes:

Well, it's good enough for ME. I just don't like what Walmart represents. If you like it, you're welcome to go ahead and patronnize the evil empire if you want. . . .

Why would I buy a bunch of toiletries at Walgreens and suffer with lousy service and high prices when I can get the same service, and the same products at Wal-Mart for lower prices?

Why would I buy Rotella at Pep Boys when the same container is $3.00 less at Wal-Mart? Both companies employ the same 'tards.

.........because they buy goods in China??..........

........ahh, did you notice that just about every retailer sources in the third world these days...........???

Don't start throwing facts at me, buster. I certainly don't need THOSE in order to form MY opinions . . .

........you've got quite a bit of company with that philosophy........;)

Well, we the people have the choice NOT to buy from them. If we want them to drown, we simply buy somewhere else. Complain about Walmart? Do something about it! In the meantime, other people will keep spending and supporting the collapse of American home-based industry since the prices are cheap.

I try to avoid Walmart, and ANY Chinese goods whenever possible. I'm sure this is not what Sam would've approved for the future of his company.

What's the deal with Wal-Mart and "Chinese goods"? I don't go to Wal-Mart for their $2.00 flip flops or their $29.00 furniture.

Wal-Mart sells the same shampoo, toothbrushes, dental floss, deodorant, TP, towels, cat litter, motor oil, windshield washer solution, Bondo, wiper blades, sandpaper, Acetone, as everybody else.

You boycott the other retailers for offering these products??
