Wal-Mart bans man for life for matching ads
 

What happened? Did he say something against the moderators? He could have gotten by with all sorts of shennanigans, but he wouldn't get by with criticizing their moderators.

Now that's funny. For anyone who spends any time on any internet forums, the truth in humor/humor in truth makes for good comedy. I just hope I don't find myself under the Banhammer for saying so.

Please,

Keep pushing it.

Larry that's almost as funny as getting banned form Walfart! :D

Truer words were never spoken.

What I don't get from the OP is if this guy found cheaper prices locally, why didn't he go to the local places instead? Do people actually like going to walmart for things? I don't think I've met one person who ever liked shopping at wal-mart. The only reason people go there is because of its prices, which if beat, take away the sole purpose of going there. I wonder if they sell wooden crosses?

Happy Holidays Willy Rob.

Some People simply shop at the closest place; if that is a Walmart then that is where they shop.

At one time I used to shop at a place similar to Walmart (GEMCO) because they also sold Groceries and I could get 98% of what I wanted in one trip (even Guns and Ammo).

In this particular case I got the impression that with His Hobby He likes to Play Walmarts Price Matching Game and Win.
I am guessing that this was causing a lot of work for Walmart because if you do not bring in an Ad from the other store showint the Price there Walmart hast to other Store to verify the other Stores price.

Sounds like rather than simply setting a limit on how many price matches Walmart would allow per Customer the decided it was easier to expell the Guy.
Setting a limit would not be descrimmination while expelling the Guy might be considered descrimination.
Then if Walmart won't allow someone to price Match as the advartised then there is false advertising.

Oh yeah!

Story like this makes me want to go down to the local Wally Mart with a bunch of ads to see if I can get the lifetime ban... that would be sweet.:D

Hiya Billy, Merry Christmas.

Class-action lawsuit, baby.

Then exhume old Sam Walton, attach a generator to him, and use the power from him rolling over to light up half the USA in a "green" fashion.

Might have been a slightly different outcome if the ad matching guy was a black man in Oakland.

Or a gay guy in San Francisco.

I hope this guy sues the living c**p out of Walmart, so I can keep getting my Auto Zone's price matching @ WM on Mobil 1 5W-40 Gallons for $12.99, versus the regular price of $29.00 or so.

:laughing:
