That sounds so sad.:(



yeah and I never knew Caldor was planning a new look until I found it on the internet

the logo in blue if I remember from seeing a pic from a catalog posted somewhere it looked like the recent last one except the letters were blue the apostrophe thing or something thing over  the D was removed and they took away the red background
would've looked cool

here I've made a powerpoint rendition of it

this is from my post in caldor on the closed chains thread

posting it here to make people aware:

"I don't mean to offend any one here but I disagree with Zayre88 in Wal*Mart being great


sure sure its a success story

BUT AT WHAT COST?

HOW MANY STORES HAVE TO CLOSE BEFORE WE REALIZE WE'RE LIMITING OUR CHOICE?

HOW MANY JOBS HAVE TO BE LOST BEFORE WE REALIZE WE'RE SENDING THEM OVERSEAS?

HOW LONG DO WE REALIZE THAT WE'RE KILLING OUR OWN TOWNS VALUE TO SUPPORT A BIG COMPANY WHO HATES ALL OTHER COMPANY

I DON'T CARE IF THE REGIONAL CHAINS WERN'T COMPETITIVE ENOUUGH THEY WERE FINE THEY WERE PLAYING FAIR!

THEY USED TALENT NOT "UNDERSELLING PRICES"

AND DON'T FORGET Kmart's apperciation for customers and their quality

customer appreciation
good service
quality

ALL THREE OF THESE WAL-MART DOES NOT CARE ABOUT IT JUST WANTS LOW PRICES AND MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY

HOW ELSE DOU YOU THINK THEY GOT TO BE THE LARGEST CORPORATION IN THE WORLD? DUH!:duh:

AND YOU KNOW THOSE OTHER STORES YOU LIKE TO SHOP AT BESIDES WAL-MART? Kmart,Target,Shopko,Kohl's etc. Well in Wal-mart's world they would be gone yep its true :yup::o:( all the other stores are considered "competition" to them unbelivable" isn't  it?

And those supermarkets you like Safeway,Price Chopper, Stop& Shop, Big Y,Shop Rite etc. guess what! If Wal-mart had its way they would all be GONE GOB CLOSED LOST FOREVER!
THATS WHY THEY BUILD THOSE SUPER HUGE SUPERCENTERS!!!

WAL-MART WILL ONLY BE SATISFIED WHEN:

1.when you go shop for things the only place you could shop is Wal-mart
2.When you go shopping for groceries the only place you could do it is at a Wal-Mart Supercenter

NOW HAVE I GOT YOUR ATTENTION?

THIS IS WHY WALMART MUST GO GOB BECAUSE IF THEY SUCCEED AT THEIR GOAL THEN THE ONLY PLACE YOU COULD SHOP AT IS WALMART!!!!

I'm NOT KIDDING!!!

I'm planning to post this also in the walmart bashing thread"

I hate Sprawl-Fart a LOT LOT LOT!!! They made our local k-mart GOB, my FAVORITE store on ALL THE EARTH!!! I think they're going too far. Putting beautiful and DECORATIVE and UNUSUAL stores out of business for their ugly boring all-white mega-size supercenters. They say they have lower prices. The price of my camera was EXACTLY the same at K-Mart than it was at Hel-Mart!! THE EXACT SAME PRICE!!! So why doesn't everyone go to K-Mart? BECAUSE MAL-WART PUT THEM OUT OF BUSINESS!!! Not to mention the K-Mart employees are actually FRIENDLY and actually care about the costomers!! I don't know why Wal-Fart  must put poor helpless stores out of business THAT POSE NO THREAT TO THEM!!! Do they consider every store competition?? EVERY single store ever founded?? That's what it sounds like..:flaming::flaming:

Caldor1999

Wal-Mart has its bad side, but all stores do. I think we need to accept them for what they are. Because if you're like me Wal-Mart is really the only thing my town has going for it! Since the demise of Ames, Hills, and bEST we're pretty much sol. Even though i think Wal-Mart is Bloated and too big for their own good, i have to come to terms with reality. It's almost all we have left.

I KNOW!

Besides the fact its from Walmart

It also says at bottom " Made in USA from fabric made in Brazil"

GEE THAT MEANS IT WASN'T MADE IN THE USA IT WAS ASSEMBLED FROM FABRIC FROM OVERSEAS

NICE TRY WALMART! BUT YOUR NOT FOOLING ME!:P


plus the misspelling of Arkansas in the part that says the location of "Bentonville,Arkansas"  it spells "Arkansaw" not "Arkansas"

someones illiterate

possible the shirt was actualy made in Brazil and the person making the tag was told to type in "Bentonville,Arkansas" but the person telling him/her forgot to tell the person how to spell Arkansas so the person typed in Bentonville,Arkansas as it sounded to them by pronunciation "Arkansaw"
:yup:

My local Wal-Mart in Oxford, MA just repainted the exterior to this awfully bland brown/tan color, although I think it looks better than the blue.

Our Supercenter was built around 1994--in the back of the existing vintage Wal-Mart. Being a young one, I asked my mommy why they were building a store in the back of another one--lol. But here's a story--two Wal-Marts were shuttered around 1995 in my area and NOT relocated. AWESOME! But I did like the old tan/brown scheme as opposed to the current blue one--it's because those Wal-Mart colors remind of the late 1980s/early 1990s, one of my fave time periods--so I'd like to see my store convert to those colors. And here's something weird and just a little stupid: I visited a small, small town earlier this year. We had to go shopping, and literally the only store there was..you guessed it, Wallyworld. So we stopped at this store, an older, non-Supercenter store. Then, we go down the street the next day only to discover a mammoth HUGE Supercenter. Why??? I have a feeling that things were shutting up for the smaller store...this was a brand new Supercenter. Grrr! :flaming:

Pretty soon all WALMARTS will be Supercenters and thats why we should stop them/ significantly slow down them down now!:yup:
