I'm not saying that it is Wal-Mart's fault, but in my experience Wal-Mart stores are typically crowded and typically attract a less savory clientèle. Both of which make for a more favorable location for something like this to happen.tallmike wrote: Just curious, why did you decide that this incident reflects on wal-mart instead of on the thief? Honestly, the only actions the store took in this incident reflect well on them, he could have reported the incident to police himself.
It's nice that they replaced the stolen items. They made it a less negative experience for a customer and kept a police report being generated at there address.
I very rarely go to Wal-Mart (2-3 times a year), and when I do it's only between 4 AM and 10 am.
I have plenty of other reasons I don't like Wal-Mart (I'll spare you the diatribe). Hearing this just reaffirms the one.
