I was looked>> where is walmart''s post somewhere in this thread about walmart have no longer offers for layaway two months ago?

Today I went to walmart at east coast. They do have service layaway?
 
They still offer layaway until 2007. My friend told me that.
 
Strange... I heard that Wal-mart no longer accept layaway last year...
 
I live in canada and work at Walmart. My store was the last one in the city to have Layaway. We closed our layaway but our customers have till the end of the year to pick things up.

The reason why we closed it - Not enough staff.
 
Walmart will stop accepting layaway on nov 19th and yall must pick your stuffs up on dec 8th.. they will no longer accept the layaway due to credit card and other uses. i think they made a HUGE mistake! but watch out.. they will have bad sales..

Kmart still have layaway.. :)
 
They have a deadline when to accept layaway. They have a deadline to pick up the stuffs that you put in layaway too.
 
In my hometown and other town .. Walmart doesn't going stay open layway.. No longer layway for good.. their reason.. I have no idea why....
No further explaination..

SmileyGin.. your report status coming from usa.. But specific I need to know why layway is no longer further in Canada? :dunno: why!

“Demand for layaway service has declined steadily as consumers turn to other options, such as online shopping, gift cards and no-cost credit alternatives,” said Pat Curran, executive vice president, store operations, Wal-Mart Stores Division

thats the reason why..


At the same time, Wal-Mart is working to offer customers new payment options. The company already has zero interest offers for 6 and 12 months for current Wal-Mart cardholders. For the first time, customers who apply for a new Discover or Wal-Mart Credit Card will receive $20 cash back when they apply at the register and purchase at least $100 on their card the same day.



Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. operates Wal-Mart Stores, Supercenters, Neighborhood Markets and SAM’S CLUB locations in the United States. Internationally, the company operates in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Puerto Rico, South Korea and the United Kingdom.

notice it said.. internationally.. mean ALL!!!

i disagree.. in fact it won't make the sales down.. it will make the walmart to get some profit. reason? don't need to pay an employee to cover the layaway.. many layaway employees stand and do nothing and still get paid its not a busy job.

other reason layaway cost walmart money.. and the back room gets full and people don't pick their things on time and it cost walmart time to call that person, mail that person, etc. to come and pick it up.

now the credit card is here around the corner.. many people can simply apply for walmart credit card and that will make walmart get profit because of interest rate when they didn't pay off on time.

this is why i don't think the sales will be down.. once a person apply for credit card they're addicted to shop at walmart because the walmart credit card is only for walmart stores. unless its a discover walmart card.

its a wise business budget. i've heard that target will have layway soon..
 
Ok I do like buying toys at walmart because of reasonable price

I like target for decor' home.

they said no interest on the card if people apply for the card. it said so on their website..

Kmart have the layaway option too.. but you dont realize that many people depend on layaway plan to help pay off for stuffs .. cant just buy buy buy and not have the money ?? where is it? i dont think they understand but then walmart is starting to act like they want better service for rich people rather than for poor people .. thats my opinions.. just wait n see what will happen...
 
I wish that Toy r us stores service the layaway too !
