This is a sad story.
Dad goes to Wal-Mart to buy three MP3 players — one for each of his three kids. Come Christmas, the ten year old in the family starts crying her head off. What’s wrong? Is the MP3 player broken? Nope. She had just been hit with a face full of porn!
It seems that the offending MP3 player (manufacturer unknown) had previously been purchased by another customer, who downloaded smut onto the product prior to returning it to the store. Somehow, and contrary to Walmart policy on returned goods, the product was then resold as new by a Walmart store in Sparta, Tennessee.
Wal-Mart, save money, live better? Ha! Tell that to the poor ten year old girl.

here’s a less porntastic story that is along the same lines as far as messed up return policies are concerned

yea, i *hate* walmart. there’s not many things in the world i truly hate, but walmart is one of them. they really suck. i had to work with them (not for them, with them on a joint project) for two years. i got a taste of what their people are truly like — i worked in bentonville, ar (their hq) and their people are not very nice. think smiley face, turned upside down.
