I am not sure if will hurt them but I don't know about your Walmart but the layaway line is always really long here. I can't imagine why they are not doing it anymore. I don't really like Walmart and this is added to my list of why. You are right a lot of people really depend on the layaway program....Why?

My local store has layaway still. They didn't say anything when I put the stuff for christmas on layaway they are not going to be doing it anymore. Is it all stores?

I am upset about this also. December 8 is the last day to take your things out of layaway. I heard that they are putting other things in place of it. I am not sure what they are though.

This is the first time I heard about it. Is it all Walmarts. I live in New Brunswick

i am so upset over this...i have heavily relied on being able to put something on layaway cause i only have a few dollars at the time...i can't just charge things or say oh yeah i have all the money....i think they are making the biggest mistake they could ever make and i think they will lose a lot of business..the area i live in doesn't have too high of a payscale, and that's been the only way people around here could buy things!
