Snack subscriptions
Subscription snack boxes could be the next thing on the market, but Walmart’s Goodies monthly snack subscription definitely went a little bit too far. It was launched in late 2012, and that’s when Goodies shipped a box full of eight sample-sized snacks a month for only $7.
However, after a year of beta testing, Walmart soon came to the conclusion that the project didn’t go as well as it thought. Naturally, Walmart is one of the many stores that have grocery pickup and delivery.
“Someday a woman will be president” famous T-shirts
In 1995, Walmart decided on a major flip-flop with one of its items, which was a shirt that featured Dennis the Menace character Margaret and the phrase: “someday a woman will be president!”. At first, Walmart decided to stock it, but it soon came to the conclusion that the T-shirts need to be pulled from the shelves, as it soon realized that the “message went against their own philosophy of family values” as the Washington Post showed.
After a whole nationwide uproar, Walmart came back to its original decision to restock the shirts, ordering no less than 30,000 more to place in each of its stores. Nowadays, you can’t find that shirt at Walmart, but you can find shirts for actual female presidential contenders, such as Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, but also Amy Klobuchar.
Aside from these items that you won’t find anymore, there are also some things that you SHOULDN’T buy from Walmart, some of which are Great Value brand food, luxury perfumes, organic foods, and many other things.

i do appreciate all of your efforts to keep us safe and healthy
Somehow they consider the concept of a woman president to be against “family values”. How is that keeping us safe and healthy?
I wish we could see less production of China
Products at Walmart I will not buy anything
With China on it .
I tried not to for 30 years or so but now I have practically given up.
makes 2 of us.
Same here
GREAT MOVE !! 🙂
Then, where do you buy your China for Sunday dinner?
france, england, taiwan
LOL LOL
I hope that was a joke
Ikea
The paper plate isle
Ebay.i have beautiful Old Country Roses English fine china.After my husband surprised me with basic service for 8, i started buying one piece a month..besides more basic plates, i have 3 platters in 3_sizes, Serving bowls,,ceramic oven proof casserole dishes, tea,pots, a,coffee server, cake plates, pasta serving bowl and pasta plates, covered vegetable bowls, egg cups sand with long plates , salt, pepper and,sugar bowls, clear salad,serving bowl,,with matching individual bowls, and a big soup tureen. And more.
I started collecting around 1984. Everything in great shape, too.And bought a piece at,a,time, it was,easy on the budget. And not from China.
Agreeing with you sister!
I agree with you. If I see a label that says Made in China…no way!
For a good while now, sometimes they will not list “China” but put imported – so be watchful. I haven’t been buying anything China for probably around 15 yrs. Why should we when we can support our own great USA
The Chinese now own Walmart, I have been told. Sam Walton’s’ family sold it a few years ago. So naturally there will be more and more items of Chinese origin.
Most products are made in a foreign country. China just happened to be one of them.
Me too!
Good for you l- same for me!! I make do in a number of ways because I’m trying to use only Made-in-the-USA products.
Amen!
I will never set foot in Walmart again. Walton’s creating homeless elders everywhere
Agreed
You probably won’t be buying much then.
Clinton and Harris are not appropriate candidates for president. People are not against having a woman president.
I renamed it China Mart in the late seventies as my Pant produced their priavte label diapers; then they moved their personal care products supply chain to Mexico and China!
Agreed!!! They are good at masking their products however, even on Amazon and Facebook. You have to be very savy at researching products n ow a days.
if everything we buy from China was made in the US guess what, we would need 5 times the income to buy it. WONDER WHY IT’S MADE IN CHINA!
a wheel bearing made for my car in USA was quoted $145. one made in China cost $44. which one do you think I bought? I bought the China one and it out lasted the original USA one.
I fully agree!!!
It’s not about being a woman. A woman president would be great. The point is the woman’s qualifications, her policies, her good record, her love of country. We should never simply because of gender or skin color. We’re all Americans. But just as with any job the person who gets picked for the job must have the ability and qualifications in order to do the job properly.
the woman president shirts need to come back
Do we want to keep democracy we have had for 240 years??
She is just the wrong one.
This presidential race had nothing to do with being a woman… Harris is not very smart to begin with, she lied & is still lying. She doesn’t have the integrity, intelligence or the slightest idea about what being the leader of the free world means & has only tried to destroy & divide what America & the people who represent it & actually LOVE our country. Camel Toe Harris has none of the qualification’s to run OUR country. Land of the Free & Home of the Brave. She is nothing but a selfish, wicked & vile person who only seems to seek Chaos & destruction. How dare this horrible woman!!!!
You’re a fucking idiot, thanks for showing us that.
No it was a pro abortion,pro homosexual, anti Christian women.
IT is not a woman that we don’t want. IT is a socialist of either sex, that we don’t want. socialism usually ends in mass murder, Amerika will be no different.
About the United States Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the military leadership, the ability to appoint a cabinet, restore pride in America and the respect of the world? How about not having FAKE pandemics, business lock downs, JAB mandates, a border not overrun with illegal/unvetted welfare drains, an national debt of never repayable, nosebleed proportions, weaponized DOJ, corrupt as hell president who was not duly elected, etc., etc., etc.?
Kroger family has phased out tonic water;
WTF ???
you can still buy ammo in a RED state Wall-Mart. Who would live anywhere else? (the low IQ would)
Good move! Thank you.
I liked white stag the best. So disappointed you dropped them.
Me too
I’m very sorry the White Stag brand was dropped. I liked their jeans and pants so much better than the newer options. For one thing, I think White Stag sizing was more accurate. When I purchased a pair of pants marked “petite” or “short”, I didn’t have 8-12 inches of fabric leg dragging on the floor when I pulled them up. Please bring this product line back, Walmart!
I will miss that one
I agree . I loved the White Stag brand. Their clothes actually fit!!!! I don’t buy my clothes at Walmart anymore. Everything is ugly and doesn’t fit me right.
I too enjoyed White Stag, the fit was perfect for me. I miss them!
I agree That clothing line was the best . Could always find a good selection . What they have now is not for women. It’s more for. Teens or young adults .
They have forgotten all of Sam’s beliefs which is sad. They forget if it wasn’t for the customers they would not have a job. Their customers are smart enough tovthink fir themselves. If there is something they have on the shelves that you do not want just walk on by. The customers deserve to be treated with respect . Our store here doesnot take csrevof the customers they tell us they are not allowed to sny longer. Sam is rolling in his grave I am sure. In stead of taking things that sell off the shelf why not leave them . I have friends that say WalMart should stsrt listening to their customers instead of doing an injustice to the Store The Great Sam Walton started. Always remember if we all stop shopping WalMsrt you will go broke!
Faded glory was really nice as well. They had the CUTEST kids clothes.
Me too
Thank you fr letting me know that a retailer has a conscience.
You didn’t note the disappearance of the individual Pecan pies? My all time favorite item from Wal-Mart!!!
They still have them
Saw them in my local WM yesterday.
I miss the small pecan pie too.
Could have the bioengineering ingredient, like so many other food products. This is in too many of our foods and it’s deadly, if you consume too much of it, it’s poisoning that Bill Gates invented to kill so many of our population. He wants to be the lone survivor. He’s a monster that needs to be stopped.
I Loved those
Thank you Walmart, for looking out for us. I myself think you have done a good job.
But they sell garbage lawnmowers and when they break down they tell you to contact the manufacturer. The problem with that is the manufacturer doesn’t answer the phone or they tell you to contact them by email that they don’t answer either. DO NOT BUY A POWERSMART LAWNMOWER FROM THEM. They are junk and they don’t stand behind their products
Have you let Walmart know all this? Walmart should discontinue 3rd party lawnmowers. Was it under warranty or could it be taken to any repair place for repair instead?
Yup… Sam’s happened to me too.
SOOOO sorry to see White Stag on the list!
Me too!
Walmart is Anti-women. OK. As a woman, I am anti-Walmart. Why is a woman president against family values? Because, according to Walmart, women are chatel.
EXACTLY
You need to take this up with Alice, Ann, and Nancy…😊
Strange…. Probably 75 % are female employees. They are not anti women atall. I wonder where you get your info
the whole demon-rat party is anti woman. They don’t like minorities either. They only love themselves. Why they are called “perverts”. IF you can’t escape their wrath, put them down (if threatened) (legal in RED states only).
because the Bible says a woman is never to be in authority over a man. The man is to be the head of the home/family also. Having a woman in charge is known to break down the family unit. When a woman usurps authority, the man will leave, thus breaking down the family unit. Men think rationally while women think emotionally. Furthermore, other country will not respect a woman president those endangering the family.
Could not have said it better myself!!
It has long been a trend with Walmart since Sam Died that any off brand that outsells a Name brand is discontinued in favor of the higher priced name brand. It is how they operate in order to sell the name brand. They also create their own Shortages of certain items like Cat Food, Walmart’s brand Special Kitty will be out for weeks until the expensive brands are nearly sold out.
Makes sense to me now
Great Value is always available all year round and it is doing well, and Walmart supports this brand, a lot as it is profitable, at least in my area.
The cat food is an issue that is not Walmart’s fault, and their brand is always available in my store.
I refuse to buy name brands, if I can’t get the GREAT Value brand, I will not buy it. I can’t afford to pay more for name brands when I save (usually .50 to $ 1.50) on GREAT Value brands!! I absolutely refuse to pay that much more for the same item, same size or quanitity, that taste as good or better. They change the products around every week or two and I don’t want to spend an hour or two trying to find what I need. I have been so aggravated with trying to find something, I was tempted to push my cart to the side and leave. Their definitely not doing what Mr. Sam did!
Why does so many people think or feel like Walmart looking out for them ? You got them to drop these items by complaint or not buying !!,
Did you not read the story, everything FAILED to do as expected( not buying) or to many complaints/ down falls.
Walmart looking out for thier bottom line. They will sell what ever sells !!
You are SOOO right. And they will force “well respected” manufacturers to give them a lower wholesale price so they can guarantee they are the lowest priced retailer. If the manufacturer can’t cut his wholesale price specially for them, then they push for a “slightly cheaper constructed version” or to “leave a few features that won’t be immediately noticed” out of the Walmart model. A couple decades back they tried this go with the STIHL company. Stihl refused to alter any models, as they considered that to be less than there quality standards. Told Walmart if they wanted to sell cheaper than anyone else they would simply have to operate on a thinner margin. When Stihl’s family owners talked about this and additional “hardball” tactics in the press, Walmart sent about a dozen lawyers with copies of bout a dozen ways they would be sued. Stihl pointed out that all conversations with Walmart were recorded, and most were also videoed. The suits quickly evaporated before news of Walmart’s further “bad faith” market tactics could leak out. And contrary to what the Walmart rep’s had said (if you don’t sell through us we’ll put your out of business) Stihl appears to be one of the few American manufacturers still chugging along just fine.
Like many other retailers do.
GOOD FOR YOU!!!!
l stopped buying at walmarts, do not give discounts to seniors or vets!!!
I agree with Joe…no discounts to vets or seniors, many products come from China…I find other stores are less expensive now. WalMart has to keep profit high to pay their employees more and support their education. WalMart has changed for the worse in a very big way.
Why should they prices are low enough!
I wish Walmart would not buy from China
I would like to go into Walmart and find no products from China . I will never give my money to them, if I pick something up from China I put it back .
They sell stuff made in the USA and other countries as well. Not all is China. Educate yourself about them and go see for yourself.
Wal-Mart was bought by China it’s Chinese owned
Due to confusing leaders, I couldn’t find the products not available at Walmart anymore!
Thanks! Not a computer wizard!
So glad I do not shop at Walmart any more, when they stopped selling ammunition I was done with them.
I would like to know why I must click multiple times (SO MANY TIMES) to see the answers to any of these posts? I suspect it’s all about your organization getting paid for EVERY click the public makes on your site… That has to be the case, otherwise we would simply be able to scroll down a single page to read everything! Ever heard of “Scroll”? How about stopping with the click bait income! I’m NOT going to click eleven times to see eleven products! Put the info on ONE PAGE!
Glad to see Walmart show some common sense, but do miss White Stag.
I have quit walmart all together. If I can get it ANYWHERE else. I will pay a little more to keep from buying at Walmart. I started having problems with them when they were cutting the fabric dept. They had a corner on the market by putting others out of business. After that they were going to do away with it themselves. Just the first. They were saving money by putting in all those self checkouts. Lots of jobs were lost.
I DON’T DO WALMART.
I did not understand the last paragraph that said “you SHOULDN’T buy from Walmart Great Value products, organic products, luxury perfume etc. Why? I believe it was supposed to say some things you SHOULD buy from Walmart…!
No to China products
I would love to see a woman president. It has nothing to do with family value.!
And maybe we’d have less idiots running the country!
Why are cashiers told not to double bag? I am tired of chasing my groceries down the street and cleaning up broken glass bottles due to a single cheap paper bag.
I liked Faded Glory and like the Time and Tru.
YOU do ot say why we should not buy Great Value brand and organic items.
The Great Value label has been around for years. This private label as well as Equate has many products of major brands just with a label change.. Canned Veggies, milk and dairy products are the same product with just a label change, all arriving from the same manufacturer or distributor.. you must check out what you are buying…
The Walmart in Modesto California on McHenry avenue some of the male employees won’t help certain customers unless they have big boobs they simply pass up the disabled customers and claim they are off the clock but then turn around and help a customer with big boobs some of the products are not there and the questionable candy video on YouTube where the lady went into a Walmart and purchased a bag of chocolate candy and when she got home opened the candy and worms came out she even did this to show to the camera idk maybe i should just go to target instead
I’m very sorry the White Stag brand was dropped. I liked their jeans and pants so much better than the newer options. For one thing, I think White Stag sizing was more accurate. When I purchased a pair of pants marked “petite” or “short”, I didn’t have 8-12 inches of fabric leg dragging on the floor when I pulled them up. Please bring this product line back, Walmart!
I don’t need Walmart to decide what I buy. Removal of firearms and ammo just to bow down to what to anti gun agenda is ridiculous. How about just abiding by the law. Walmart shootings didn’t result because someone came in to purchase something and then loaded it and began shooting.
They haven’t sold handgun or AR15 ammo for several years now. They quit selling AR 15 rifles a couple of years before that. I have NEVER seen a handgun for sale in any Walmart. I did see where they gave BLM $100 million during the riots in 2020. Since they are going woke I hope they go broke. Sam Walton is spinning in his grave.
I resisted buying groceries at walmart! but now they do save me money for sure.I used smaller stores and local but prices in these store have sky rocketed.No money to support them regularly anymore.
That’s why I buy my groceries at Walmart. I’m a senior on a retirement budget.
Grocery prices at Walmart are ‘decent’ at best. If you have access to supermarkets that have a membership program, especially one with online coupons (like Kroger), you’ll do better and have access to better quality products in many cases. I also like shopping at (both) Aldi and Lidl, and if you have either of them nearby, suggest you check those out. Their store brands are as good as or better than Walmart’s. HOWEVER, not all of WM’s Great Value products are bad, and the good ones (you’ll have to decide for yourself) will save you money.
I don’t like the Terra Sky clothes u have .could go back to old brands u use to carry.I just cant shop for clothes at your stores.
we all go as far our money run. some have more than others. all this is politic or convenience.
WE shop at Walmart at least 2 times a week. Love the store. Prices have gone up a lot, not a good thing. Usually find everything I need.
People that work there are very nice and helpful.
Walmart should ask the customers what they would like brought back to the store the woman’s clothes is a bunch of cheap old looking 👀 clothes nothing for the older women most of it is for the younger girls/women – Fancy Feast Cat Food is mostly empty and since the remodel you spend extra time walking around the store and still can’t find it what you were looking 👀 for and the aisles are always cramped with stickers trying to stock the shelves during the day china makes items cheaper that’s why Walmart uses china product don’t purchase to much from Walmart we shop at Reasor’s better products and much better selection
I don’t shop at Walmart they are on my list.
Walmart tends to out source shipments and they need to understand if things coming from other companies don’t follow through they get criticized for their actions. I have an order supposedly coming from Canada and i only received part of it. I had to purchase some crazy door item in order to receive my medicated Protein Drink. Accept the Protein Drink never showed up. Not everyone uses the Protein drinks for bulking up. Some of us use it for daily intake as ordered by doctors. But it is not covered by insurance. Plus a lot of stores don’t understand when you have to do this daily you don’t want just chocolate and cookie flavored Shakes. Not everyone can switch to other brands because you body doesn’t tolerate all the variety of companies that make protein shakes and some don’t make 30 grams of Protein drinks. It’s like being a diabetic if you need it for medication we need to have access to it whether covered by insurance or not.
Yes, Great move.
Yes, if the merchandise is not working in the majority of Walmart stores, you should move on and choose other items that are of interest to all of your Walmarts. When I shop inside Walmart everyone seems very nice, professional, customer friendly employees. I must say they have a excellent delivery service too. My items are always on time, and left where I requested them to be placed. The items are in great condition. I love to shop at this store, Walmart Hwy. 42, Clayton, NC.
Why would you say do not buy Great Value brand? This brand saves us money and taste better than name brands. So far only two Great Value products aren’t as good. The box dinners they compare to Hamburger Helper and The stew compared to Dinty Moore.
Charlotte from The Money place, please answer, we really want to know.
You are pushing politics in this e-Mail. I don’t buy toilet paper to get my political information and you should stick to retail! I hate seeing you advocate for either side. Stick to toilet paper. You have plenty of money. Keep your nose out of political preferences. This was the WRONG message!
I always when The big W stocked items that I buy I found Walmart to be hit or miss. Sometimes you’ll see the item you want to purchase there and then you won’t see the item for weeks, but as someone said, they’re probably trying to sell out the namebrand items.
Well Kamela Harris will be the next President of the United States and I do like Margeret so you should’ve kept selling the shirts.
This made me laugh but no way in heck I will stop using Great Value brand. They are great and helps to stretch my dollars.
Did the shirts mention Shirley Chisolm as a presidential candidate? If you go that route again, don’t forget the first black woman who ran for president! A t-shirt with all the women wo ran for president would be nice!
Do not ever believe the “in stock” because a lot of times they are for products they NEVER carried. I used to check online, but when I went to the store found that it was not there, no tags on the counters, not sold out, but something they didn’t ever sell. They just will say in stock to ANYthing you ask about. So 19 times out of 20, I leave Wal-Mart empty handed.
Mr. Sam Walton is probably turning over in his grave. Mr. Walton made it a point to only buy and stock American made products. It was not until Sam Walton passed away that is family that gained control of the Corporation of Walmart started the procurement of Chinese Products, and also bending to the will of the Left in our beloved America. Walmart is also employing illegal aliens who the Dems had gotten green cards for them to work in the stores. These illegals cannot speak a word of English, while our own people are starving and sleeping in tents including our American Veterans. I personally try not to buy anything from Walmart unless I absolutely needed to.
Why bother selling anything in your so-called fishing department if you don’t sell fishing licenses! I will go to a real sporting goods store.
Walmart is in the business of making money–period. Lately, I’ve experienced what was available one week at a decent price, has been replaced by a “name brand” at a higher price. Some Walmart items are being replaced at a higher price, and reduced size and quality. Unfortunately, as a Senior Citizen my choices of where to shop at the best deals are getting fewer.
I have always had good experiences with Walmart. Therefore, I have no complaints. I like there low prices. I just thought of one thing I would love to see. Okee Dokey Cheese popcorn is the best. I would love to see them in stock more often!
Home grocery delivery has become so disgusting. I’ve been having to call customer service after each delivery. Outdated food, green ribeye steaks (outdated) stollen meats, groceries left at door so door would not open, don’t knock when delivery made, feral cats eating my groceries before I can get around the house to get them, etc. Having just one missing ingredient puts dinner off. Pizzed me off.
The last few years they haven’t had vita herring in cream sauce. I have to go to publix to get it. But they do have the herring in wine sauce.
Can you give your reason for taking non frosted blueberry Pop Tarts off the shelves but have 10+ frosted flavors.
I was very disappointed to find Walmart no longer carries their brand of Healthy Cream of Mushroom soup. I can’t find the lightly salted potato chips in their brand any more since last Fall. Being somewhat health conscious, I am shopping there less.
Article seems familiar, I’m glad they’re not going to carry the first 4 things, anymore, But I thought, they had already stopped carrying them,
I went to Walmart 4 months ago to get a laptop and they didn’t have what I was told, and the one they did have and try to get me to buy was almost twice as much as the one I was told they had. I didn’t get anything ,I went to Target and got the one that Walmart said they had and didn’t . I got it for less. Saved $80.
Walmart stories are a must for lots of low income folks, They can sell cheaper because of Quantity, if you don’t like buying stuff made in China, then don’t, they have lots of other stuff for sale that’s not made in China. I Even find stuff in Mom and Pop stores made in China
I purchased the hearing aids advertised through Walmart. They did not fit. I tried every way and nothing I did helped so I wrote to them. I’ve called them. My husband’s emailed them. He’s called them. We ask for a refund like they said they would give us and now it’s been weeks and we still have not gotten any word from them. I am still waiting for my refund had they said had we bought them through Amazon? The company could’ve helped us but because we bought them through Walmart they can’t help us. Don’t buy these hearing aids.
Great Value has several good items well rated by Consumer Reports.
I sure do wish you would bring back the cinnamon mini donuts!
Time for WalMart to quit selling merchandise tied into cable TV programmes. Our nearby store can’t move any Pioneer Woman or Joana Gaines Home Edit items until they get down to $1 on the clearance aisles. Nobody watches cable anymore and no one cares who these folks are so the items just take space on the shelves at their exorbitant pricing while more sensible products could be featured. Same goes with some of the kiddie crap. Exceptions could be made on items related to free over the air broadcast shows like Drew Barrymore or streaming services that have made their content available for free with online platforms like the BBC as these methods are seeing increase audiences.
WHAT ITEMS ARE NO LONGER SOLD AT WALMART? NO LIST PROVIDED
Not only do they not give discounts to Seniors and they charge you for groceries that were cancelled and claim that they don’t have record of the amount taken, in my case, it was over $200.00 Dollars of my EBT Cash app and will not refund it. Almost almost All I have for the months groceries. I’m 82 years old and disabled. They didn’t care if I had proof, their records did not show the transaction?? The Rich get Richer at anyone’s expense.
I’d like to know why they stopped selling plain donuts.
Bravo Walmart. It’s great to know that some business will listen to their conscience instead of their cash register.
Most of the items come from China,because of cheap labour.
