I purchased a schwinn bycycle on 9/14/08.third time i ride it i have a flat tire no problem right?well turns out walmart dosent carry replacement tubes or tires in the 28 inch size on mine.after alot of aggrivation i find no one does.at first walmart told me they do not take back bycycles.they have a return policy posted clearly and yet still argued with me.my blood presure went sky high they gave me my money back and never to buy a bike from them that dont intend to keep.what kind of anwnser is that.what ever happend to the customer is always right.

others should beware of these problems.

Many occurences have happened through out my years of shopping at Walmart, but nothing I haven't been able to deal with, even though it has been frustrating. However two particular happenings come to mind. I am disabled and in a wheelchair. I ALWAYS have trouble finding a parking space, no matter what time of day I go to shop. I asked someone why in the spring they set up their greenhouse on the south end of the parking lot and in doing so eliminate 6-8 handicap spaces while not producing any additional parking spaces elsewhere. I just got an I do not know. This has gone on for many years since.

Also, on my last trip to the bakery I purchased my usual dozen cookies. There was a new Walmart label on it, but when I got home, I opened the package and it hit me that the package had no sticker on it to assure that it had not been tampered with. It was so anyone could open them and do whatever they wanted and nothing would alert the consumer that it had been tampered with. It is just something I think Walmart should correct and I wonder how they can get by doing this with food.

We bought some cinnamon bun muffins at our Wal-mart supercenter. I put one in my lunchbox to take to work and I was on my 9am break and decided to eat one. So I get about half-way done with it and I felt something hard in my mouth as I was swallowing. Well I pretty much had to choke and spit it back up out of my throat. I looked down on the wooden skid I was sitting on there it was, A peice of plastic about the size of a penny.So I called home on my cell phone to warn my fiance not to eat them or let my 4 year old son have any either of course and she told me the night before she had also found A peice of plastic in her muffin. She had thought that maybe the plastic container had broken and it was from that but now both of us have had the same expierence.

I havent touched the other two muffins and I dont plan to. I didnt know what to do so I called Wal-mart and asked for the bakery. I asked the lady if they had made the muffins that I had bought the night before and she informed me that they did not make any muffins there at all. So I told her the story and all she said was to bring the muffins to the store and they would refund my money. At that point I informed her that she should probably tell someone about this and the way she answered me I dont think she is going to.

I dont have any physical damage but I could have and thank god my 4 year old didnt choke on any plastic because I caught it.

Besides the prices went up within a week on several items, the grocery bags are so thin that the cashiers are double bagging which is costing Walmart double. If you bought a bag that is a little more durable, we wouldn't have to double bag. We don't like paying alot for our groceries but we also don't like loosing parts of it on the way home because the bags keep ripping. I use to be proud to shop at Walmart but not anymore. If things don't shape up soon, I will start shopping at Krogers again.

This is for all walmarts in the U.S. or might I say Walmart Corp. offices all over the U.S. We feel it is such a shame all the money we ALL spend at your walmart stores and you had the audasity to stop the lay-a-way programs you had previously provided. DO YOU EVEN REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT WAS TO THE MAJORITY OF YOUR DAILY CUSTOMERS? It tipically meant M O R E children would have Christmas every year. I don't think you would not have known that though. It wasn't costing walmart anything todo this.
