What would they do if you were escorted out, put the newly purchased ammo in your vehicle and went back in to do the rest of your shopping?

Hey, let's go one better:

What would they do if you were escorted out, went to your vehicle, took out the newly purchased ammo, put it into a clear tote bag (maybe open up a box and sprinkle out some of the cartridges ..... so's they'd be nice and purty-like...), with the receipt, then carried the tote bag into the store to.....buy more ammo!!!!! :lol:

More importantly, why would you buy ANYTHING, including the ammo they escorted you out with, from a store that treated you like that. They'd never see me or a dime of my money ever again...

IF you don't like the way you were treated don't give them your money. Let corp. Walmart Know of the problem and shop someplace else. Your Hard earned money will do your talking.

Why even go out to your vehicle in the first place if you already have ammo in the gun to start with?

If they wanted to escort me out with my purchase, then they would be following me around the store for another 45 minutes while I checked out the new books, the automotive section, and the dinnerware, all the while working my way to the front of the store to ensure that I hadn't missed anything that I might decide to buy.

I would insist that since I already paid for my property and that I had no intention of retracing my steps back to the sporting good section, that they have it near at hand to me so that I would not be delayed in my departure when I finally decided that I was finished with my shopping.

Wal-Mart needs to go on the unfriendly list period. They are killing our country with cheap imported junk, not tomention what they are doing to the work force. They are very unAmerican.

You will not be successful in getting this done. But even if you did, uhm, how will Wal-Mart even know?

Sorry for my late reply ive been on funeral detail all day. The guy that sold me the ammo this time has been the same one as before. Hes the guy that looks like he may have been in some sort of accident or maybe was just born that way. Not trying to be cruel but thats the only way id know how to describe him. Kind of short to.

Maybe he just saw Terminator for the first time.

The Terminator: [picking up guns] The 12-gauge auto-loader.
Pawn Shop Clerk: That's Italian. You can go pump or auto.
[Hands the Terminator a pump action shotgun]
The Terminator: The .45 long slide, with laser sighting.
Pawn Shop Clerk: [Hands the Terminator a .45 gun] These are brand new; we just got them in. That's a good gun. Just touch the trigger, the beam comes on and you put the red dot where you want the bullet to go. You can't miss. Anything else?
The Terminator: Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.
Pawn Shop Clerk: Hey, just what you see pal.
The Terminator: [Looks around] The Uzi nine millimeter.
Pawn Shop Clerk: You know your weapons, buddy. Any one of these is ideal for home defense. So uh, which will it be?
The Terminator: [Pointing the 12-gage shotgun towards the door] All.
Pawn Shop Clerk: I may close early today. There's a 15-day wait on the hand guns but the rifles you can take right now.
[Takes out forms]
Pawn Shop Clerk: and you have to fill these out too.
[Sees the terminator load his 12-gage shotgun]
Pawn Shop Clerk: You can't do that.
The Terminator: Wrong.
[Shoots the clerk]

I'd explain that there is no way I could load the gun with my newly purchased ammo because its already filled the with ammo I had previously bought from them.

If he insisted on following me to the door, once he left I would simply turn around with the bag in hand and my receiptand go back in to do some more shopping.

Logic escapes most people anymore.

Demand a refund. Leave the store.

There is ammo to be had elsewhere.

IIRC, all of the ammunition they sell is made in the U.S.A. ;)
