11 years ago
Yup i was not just asked to leave i was told get out of my store. Here is the letter i sent to their corporate office and i will be sending a follow up and probably calling them tomorrow when i have time
Dear Walmart Corp office
I just returned from Walmart. When i entered your elderly greeter's response was you cant bring your backpack in to the store you have to leave it here, here being the doorway. I said since there is no sign stating this i would like to speak to someone with authority for authentication.
A supervisor was polite to me and said it was a new rule, but since there is no way to protect my bag i could bring it in and shop at this time, and i can speak to the manager when he came in. She was also the one to suggest i contact you about this.
The manager was frankly rude. Now i admit i was a bit upset i pointed out that had i been asked to leave my bag at customer service or been asked when i leave to open it i would have without a problem since other stores have a policy like this. His reply was yeah at some point PAID lockers would be put in. I replied so i have to pay to leave my bag here but a women with a purse larger then a wallet can just walk in. I pointed out the women that was ahead of me in line could have easily fit 5 DVD's in to her purse with room to spare. xxxxxx made it clear he didnt give a care that i would have to pay with honestly a, am just doing what my boss tells me so deal with it attitude. While that may be true he did not suggest i contact you or anything just shut up and do what your told or shop somewhere else. When i said i could have told this greeter to F themself when i walked in with what they wanted (i admit not the best words but this manager was pushing buttons) since there was no guarantee my bag would be safe or proof of this rule. I was told "Get out of my store"
if this is the way Walmart treats its customers then maybe i will start shopping at the FRY's across the street from my job or the traders Joes near my home from now on.
i want to state had i been asked to leave my bag at customer service i would have gladly done it as i have in other locations.
I told my family who shops sometimes at the walmart near them and people i know in the other 3 apartments near this walmart. They all decried discrimination, the female ones the loudest.
