"...the New York Times reported a disheartening story about two of the largest retail chains." "... Wal-Mart has been throwing them (unsold clothing) out in giant trash bags. And in the case that someone may stumble on these bags and try to keep or re-sell the items, these companies have gone ahead and slashed up garments, cut off the sleeves of coats, and sliced holes in shoes so they are unwearable."

Another reason to not shop at Walmart. They are so desperate to suck all the money out of people that they would rather destroy clothing that does not sell rather than donate it to charity. This retail chain seems to be setup to prey on the poor so, heaven forbid, they should do anything that might help those who are not well off. Don't pay decent wages, don't give good health benefits, and don't let people get anything free no matter how bad off they are.
