Worst Mother’s Day promotion EVER

Posted by & filed under Community Features.

Some­times employ­ees change end­caps and dis­plays with­out really think­ing about the sig­nage. Usu­ally it’s just annoy­ing or an indi­ca­tor of the stores inabil­ity to man­age itself. Other times it results in great sav­ings if it’s an old price sign that hasn’t been removed. But this time — this time it’s just a hilar­i­ous train wreck for all.

Unless of course it’s not a mis­take, in which case I have to ask; did Wal-Mart just call my mom a slut?

While a mother’s day post at the end of July might seem a tad odd, today is in fact my mommy’s birth­day and I felt the need to defend her hon­our. Happy birth­day mom!

    I think it says more about what you think about your sib­lings… “please mom, what­ever you do, no more”!

    lol actu­ally i saw this in per­son myself on moth­ers day at wall­mart, it was really weird…

    Since when does using con­doms equate to being a slut?

    I am laugh­ing hys­ter­i­cally… like the chil­dren are in this video.

    (Iron­i­cally, because the father in the fol­low­ing video did not use the “mother’s day gift”, they were blessed with 4 adorable sweet­hearts laugh­ing.…) enjoy!

    I think the employ­ees just sick of scream­ing, cry­ing kids in the stores

    Ok…that is AMAZING! It reminds me of when I was work­ing at Wendy’s and part of our sign fell down outside…so instead of say­ing “Now hir­ing all SHIFTS” it said “Now hir­ing all SH*TS”

    HAHAH!

    LOL too funny! Could you imag­ine your child buy­ing that for you as a Mother’s Day gift? Haha!

    Moms & Dads: Be care­ful what you wish for… This could be a blessing.

    Yeesh you’re all a bunch of prudes”

    Gross! but funny too — I won­der where Walmart’s man­age­ment is — I mean a clerk could have set up the dis­play (hop­ing to get a few laughs maybe?) but some big-wig should have caught it.…

    No won­der they say that Canada’s pop­u­la­tion is not increas­ing at the same pace as that of the rest of the world! ;)

    We just saw a sim­i­lar sig­nage posted online…back to school sav­ings sign right above a dis­play for mag­num condoms

    It WAS prob­a­bly a Mom who put the sign there. No doubt she’s got plenty of the lit­tle demons run­ning around dri­ving her crazy at home. It’s sub­lim­i­nal mes­sag­ing for customers.

    Well it could be worse. They could have had a sale on KY Jelly Lube. Maybe that is why that yel­low dot has a smile on all the time.

    This is really funny. Sim­i­lar thing hap­pened to me in Wal­mart too. They put some lubri­cant for woman around the sham­poo area, as I was walk­ing I turn to my hus­band and said, I need this — his response was, let see if this lubri­cant will do the job. Thanks for the post. Anna :)

    RELAX. Besides, who said moms can’t have or enjoy sex? What an insult to moms and women every­where. Just because you buy con­doms doesn’t make you a slut.

    I like it! Why not let mum get a lit­tle sumthin sumthin for her­self for a change. Now if they only had some cute mens undies beside it. Just like they do for women’s undies on fathers day. TODAY IS ALLLLLLL ABOUT US GUYS.
