Default They're back

Walmart is has the Corvette men's sweatshirt, windbreaker, and jacket like last year. They go fast, so if you want one, you had better hurray. Last year I waited a couple of days before going to look and they were sold out. This year I went as soon as I heard they were in stock. Only a few were left.
BTW, not all Walmart stock, I had to try a few different stores.

Two months ago??? They sell winter stuff when the temperature is still in the 90's?
It is just starting to get cold here. This past weekend, the temperature dipped way down to the upper 50's.

I've been checking my local Wal-Mart for the jackets, but haven't seen them yet. I know they had them last year. Will have to just keep checking.

In the Melbourne area:
1. I have heard the Titusville Walmart on Rt 5 and I95 had them, but only a few left.
2. I went to the new Wickham and I95 Walmart. The sales lady said she had never seen the Corvette jacket.
3. I then went to the Sarno and Wickham Walmart. Then had several wind breakers, sweatshirts, and a few jackets. All of them looked very nice for the price.

I know I'm swimming upstream here but I will never, ever shop at a store that treats their employees so badly, ends up in court being sued for it as much as they have and has done everything they can to steamroll anyone in their retail path....just my $.02

Yup, I gues up here winter stuff comes out before it does in Florida - who would have thought.....

And PS - it is only starting to get cold here too - I don't think we've hit zero yet....

What manufacturer brands are they? I stopped by my local WalMart today but didn't see any in the Men's Wear area.

And someone said they asked the staff a question? Out here most of the staff (and shoppers) don't speak English.
