Does Wal-Mart like Left Handed People?

Today I was at wal-mart checkin out the baseball equipment cause I was bored and noticed that out of the over 50 gloves they had, none were for left handed people. We asked an employee to see if they had any in the back and they said no. Then I checked out the golf equipment and found 1 left handed club out of about 60, and we asked the employee about that too and he said there was none in the back. So we went to a different wal-mart and that one didnt have any left handed gloves either and none in the back, and this wal-mart had no left handed clubs at all. I'm gonna go check a couple more wal-marts tommorrow, but I find it strange and dissapointing that they carry virtually nothing for left handed people.

Maybe left handed people don't like Wal Mart.

Cheap prices for 90% of the people.
Forget the other 10%. They wreck the profit margin.

What a coincidence, I was at this golf store today and I only saw about 1 out of 20 golf clubs that were left-handed(for my brother). XD

I'd have laughed if this wasn't true.

maybe they were sold out, but walmart like to keep in stock. I know they are all about what sells and they may not sell alot of left handed items. You should write to them and complain :D

Wal-Mart was always one of those oddball places, they never have the obvious and I sometimes wonder if they even know what they carry.

Well, considering an overwhelming percent of the population is right-handed, you can't exactly expect to find left-handed items at Wal-Mart easily, since there's no real demand.

I dont know about demand these days for places like this, stores like Wal-mart, even grocery stores and just about any place nowadays dont even bother with what the demand is on anything, way I see it its just pick a bunch of random items and basic items a store is going to have and stock it up. Least in Mississippi thats how it seems to be, I know stores sell something out ridiculousy fast or get something actually new which people like, then you never see it again. This includes Wal-mart to as well as Target. Target is nothing more then a poor mans version of Wal-mart.
