Walmart / Sam's Club ~ Moderator's notice!

[Guest guest]

Alrighty then... maybe it is time for this topic to close on TFV.

I know nobody needs that, and I wasn't aware it was happening.

Thanks for understanding folks. Let us all move on to other

topics that don't ruffle so many hairs and cause people harm

through our words.
