Wal-Mart: Your Revenge of the Sith Headquarters

It looks like Wal-Mart will be the place to shop for your ROTS merchandise. For TPM it was huge, Supercenters had 44+ feet of shelves just for Toys. AOTC much less. From Inside Sources that I know, ROTS looks to be on that kinda scale. Target also will have a good selection. Just FYI for everyone

Going into Wal-Mart in May of 1999 was one of the best days of my life. I actually ended up buying 1 of every figure that first wave and still have them carded and in a storage box.

Wal-Mart to close unionized Quebec store

MISSISSAUGA, ONT. - Wal-Mart Canada is closing its store in Jonquiere, Que., the company announced Wednesday – six months after the workers won union certification.

Wal-Mart said it was unable to reach a tentative agreement with the union that would "permit it to operate the store in an efficient and profitable matter."

In a news release, Wal-Mart said it had told the United Food and Commercial Workers union during negotiations for a first contract that the store's financial situation was "precarious."

The company said the union's demands would have required more hiring and added hours.

But the union disputed Wal-Mart's contention that the closing was for financial reasons. UFCW Canada spokesman Michael Forman told CBC Business News the closing was "a gross infraction of labour practice" and "an assault on all Canadians" and said the union would continue the fight.

But he acknowledged that it would make other Wal-Mart employees think twice before voting for union accreditation.

Canadian Press quoted one employee at the store, which is 250 kilometres north of Quebec City, as saying many workers burst into tears when managers told them about the closing.


The store, which has about 190 employees, will close in May.

Last week, the union asked the Quebec minister of labour for binding arbitration to reach a contract in Jonquiere. The union said no progress had been made.

Another Quebec Wal-Mart, in Saint-Hyacinthe, won union certification in January.

Wal-Mart, which the UFCW calls "staunchly anti-union," is facing certification applications at about a dozen other locations in Quebec, Saskatchewan and British Columbia – including applications representing workers at seven Wal-Mart Tire & Lube Express departments in B.C.


A Wal-Mart store in Windsor, Ontario won union certification in 1997 after an Ontario labour board ruled that the company was guilty of unfair labour practices during the organizating drive. But three years later, the certification was lost when the local collapsed.

Wal-Mart has 235 stores in Canada, employing more than 60,000 people.

boycott Wal-Mart.

^^^Pffffttt. Unions suck

I'm not boycotting shit.

[Obi]

unions suck too.

[freeman]

Boycott Unions. When Publix wouldn't allow the union in our local store, the "union" sent paid people down to picket. (There's a sweet gig, paid to stand on a corner and bitch) I believe sales actually went up when these idiots picketed.

I'll be shopping at Wal-Mart in April.

[RiseLordVader]

well i decided to stop by my local Wal-Mart last night (one of the local stores anyway) and they didn't have shit. all they had were 2 measily Tion Medden figures.
that's it. fuck wally-world!

Well what the hell were you looking for?

[Megalith]

Even if you find something on the shelf, you probably wouldn't be able to get it anyway since they are supposedly locked-up on their systems until April 2nd.

I saw all of the new ROTS lightsabers, but they're pointless when you can get the Force FX versions.
