This is the phone number for the Walmart ethics line, for people who want to call and express disappointment about this policy change.
I think it might help if a lot of people call them to voice disapproval.
(800)- 963-8442
I have called them and left my comments.

Thank you

People must be calling. It's busy.

spek-music.bsky.social•94 days ago

don't buy anything at Walmart. They've treated their employees like garbage since inception. You pay double:
1) funding the rich pricks that don't pay their employees a living wage
2) many Walmart employees have to get on food stamps & other servixes for the poor that your taxes pay for

I would never go to Wal-Mart. Having said that we really need to keep running lists of companies that do not stand for/with workers & customers.

maggieb64.bsky.social•94 days ago

Don't buy ANYTHING from Walmart!

cnjackson.bsky.social•94 days ago

There's a reason Walmart has been consistently ranked as one of the worst employers in the country for decades.

lady-sisyphus.bsky.social•94 days ago

The entire US workforce should go on strike.

goobberr.bsky.social•93 days ago

I like how straight forward this human is 👍

ppdavalos.bsky.social•94 days ago

In a lot of rural area that is all there is.🤨

kslatteryresist.bsky.social•94 days ago

Yup. Usually a regular grocery store too

josiejean.bsky.social•94 days ago

I’ll spend my money elsewhere

bostonborn26.bsky.social•93 days ago

The walmart that hires disabled people? Wtf.

rox64-74.bsky.social•93 days ago

Seriously. So done with them.

robbieshell.bsky.social•94 days ago

I haven’t shopped for over 6 years at Walmart!…Refuse to spend my money with them!

Not shopping at Walmart again.

ewanders.bsky.social•94 days ago

I’ve been boycotting Walmart for as long as I’ve heard about them. Have never purchased anything from them … and won’t. Ever.

springhappy.bsky.social•93 days ago

Walmart is practically the only place to shop in my town. I am cutting my spending there and looking 4 alternatives. Also pulling out of Amazon as much as possible.

luvforhumanity.bsky.social•93 days ago

Good for you! Walmarts business model seems to rely on impulse buying of other things than groceries to offset the low grocery prices. You’re sticking it to them by not buying other stuff. If we all separate our wants and needs, we can really do some economic damage to the oligarchy.

springhappy.bsky.social•93 days ago

Absolutely! Our store was rearranged recently. They always made you walk through the whole store to get milk. Now they've practically hidden the bread midway through. I needed bread today. It was me against them! I walked there and back and only got bread and felt as if I won a small battle

profmentalwimp.bsky.social•94 days ago

They want to be the first to comply with our new fascist overlords.

papakila.bsky.social•93 days ago

they're angling for a deal on the china tariffs. obeying in advance, as it were

cassko.bsky.social•94 days ago

That’s easy for me as I never shop there.

joanronhock.bsky.social•94 days ago

We have Aldi's here in Florida that are just as cheap as walmart on groceries

joanronhock.bsky.social•94 days ago

Thank you for this notification.

joanronhock.bsky.social•93 days ago

You are welcome, my understanding is they are buying out all the Wynn Dixie's too.

nymiki800.bsky.social•94 days ago

I never buy from Walmart. I stopped decades ago as I watched them destroy small, local businesses. IMHO they are and continue to be despicable.

lindamarks.bsky.social•94 days ago

Why would anyone buy a turkey from Walmart? I don't get it.

prutherford77.bsky.social•94 days ago

Because they treat it as a commodity and Walmart has cheap prices.

marciej.bsky.social•94 days ago

Because it’s cheap. And in rural places people may not have a lot of grocery store choices.

drewclinical.bsky.social•94 days ago

I give them none of my money ever.

ethicsshouldmatter.bsky.social•94 days ago

💯 . Posted about this as well. Together we have so much economic power. That will be our secret power. We may not use our bodies to resist, but we can use our buying power..

gypsymor.bsky.social•92 days ago

have not shopped there in a long while. Guess its gonna be a lot longer

smalljane.bsky.social•94 days ago

😞

luvforhumanity.bsky.social•93 days ago

Yes, Boycott! If you have to get groceries, only buy groceries. They depend on impulse buying as their business model when people go in for their cheap groceries. Buy only what you need for groceries and consider wants and needs always.

thesphinx42.bsky.social•94 days ago

As if I needed a reason…but for good measure here is a big 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕to Walmart

liberty11.bsky.social•93 days ago

I haven't been IN a Walmart in almost a decade. I've even not gone in when that was the closest place for banking or salon services, etc.
Same with Home Depot, Carl's Jr., and Chick Filet.
