It is in poor taste to take advantage of the military in such a manner. I can only commend "The Stars and Stripes" for publishing the information. Until I hear that this policy has been corrected, you'll not find me shopping at WalMart. I will also do my best to spread the word about this practice. Thank you for your time, John Herring You, et al, with your English language abilities, should be able to do much better. Here's the place to go: http://walmartstores.com/contactus/feedback.aspx Whoops, this was meant for Gene. And, there was an 'I' at the beginning of the first sentence. I don't think they believe you will stop shopping there. You got it off your chest, so you'll be back in there looking for rollbacks in no time. Anyway, Tosk thinks the practice is entirely justifiable, since their software says it's OK... Never said that at all, you are starting to act like the plum or Harry if you are going to go down that road... All I said is that you were guessing, not stating facts when you stated as fact, that they were gouging and there was no way it cost them more... Period. I also quoted an authority... a postmaster.... Maybe there's a few other opinions, too...... http://tinyurl.com/4r9bz29 What does the postmaster have to do with Logistics within Walmarts operation? Has Obama gotten that far into our bedrooms? Are you on those drugs again? Can't answer the question huh? Now, show where Scotty has ever been on drugs as you are stating, liar. |

He's the face of "big government" in a way the GW Bush never could be. Nevermind Bush presided over the biggest percentage growth of government bureaucracy in the history of the USA. |

With over 4000 stores in the US and being the worlds largest retailer, they must be doing something right. -- Ziggy® |

Gouging.... and gouging folks on a fixed income that are likely a serrated family... already under stress.... Not to defend WalMart, but you guys are debating old, obsolete news, citing articles written in Dec of 2009. WalMart claims to have stopped charging extra to ship to APO addresses in the same month and year. Note the date of the release: http://www.stripes.com/news/walmart-...ipping-1.97436 Eisboch -- It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance. -Thomas Sowell Grady-White Gulfstream, out of Oak Island, NC.
