I encourage you all to write the CEO of Walmart (doug.mcmcmillon@walmart.com). I sent a copy to Mr. Lindell (fishsnager@yahoo.com) as well. I realize many of us are not going to be able to avoid spending money at Walmart; but, we can sure quit spending some of it there! Here is my email to the CEO of Walmart:
Dear Mr. McMillon,
I would like to remind you: "There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else." - Sam Walton.
By making a political "woke" decision you have alienated the majority of your customer base. Your own demographics show that base to be majority conservative. You've made these decisions before based on your political philosophy rather than what is good for your business and good for your customers. This time you've made a really bad one. Your job is to sell good products for a fair price, not to sift through the politics of your vendors to see if they agree with you or not.
My Pillow makes quality products at a good price. Yes, I know, you have left it on your website store. That's not enough. Mr. Walton also said, "Exceed your customer's expectations. If you do, they'll come back over and over. Give them what they want - and a little more." A good manager also admits when they have made a poor decision. Reverse course and quickly.
I will not be buying any Walmart products that compete with Mr. Lindell's. No more towels, blankets, jammies, slippers, pillows, or any other item in his catalog. And I will be actively working to convince others to do the same.
I have shopped at Walmart since Mr. Walton started his business in Arkansas. He would not approve.
Walmart’s decision was more than just a stupid decision. It was a fascist decision. Lindell was tossed aside not because his product wasn’t selling. It was because he held views that were different from those of Walmart executives.
Classical liberals welcomed different points of view. Fascists do not. Walmart behavior here is fascist. And the sad part is that they don’t even realize it.
people can still buy online.
Shredded foam pillows at Walmart- i think the really good ones are on MyPillow website.
FOX dumped him too. When will this crap stop?
just buy directly from Mypillow, whats the problem?
People still shop there? I quit them when they stopped sell ar’s and .223
Just as McDonald’s has abandoned most of Ray Kroc’s principles, Wal-Mart has largely abandoned Sam Walton’s.
How can you tell?
This is the same company that refused to sell Palmetto Cheese after the head of that company called BLM a terror organization. Wouldn’t trust them as far as I could throw them.
My Pillow products online are WAY cheaper than buying them at a retail establishment.
Just buy them direct online.
The Chinese ‘OWN’ WalMart, and they ‘OWN’ FOX...they gave the word to ditch Lindell, and that was that.
“I have removed Walmart and Sam’s Club from the businesses who have me as a paying customer.”
I just checked with the Walmart Pharmacy where we get our prescriptions to learn the process for using another pharmacy. I told the lady why and it seemed like I’m not the first one who’s called about it.
I love my MyPillows. I love that they wash beautifully. I love that I don’t wake up with headaches any more. And they are a bit lumpy, but in a good way. That’s what makes them pliable to fit each person’s sleep position. I travel with mine.

Walmart doesn’t give a rat’s behind about letters or emails and Lindell is set up perfectly fine to sell his products on his own sites.
It’s probably better for Mike to sell direct and gain loyal customers than to sell at the deepest possible discount to Walmart and be at the mercy of their agenda. He’s now established his own “My Store” portal which could become a big deal, we’ll see.
“If they were making money, it would not happen.”
The pillows were Walmart’s #1 or #2 seller. A few weeks prior to cancelling Lindell, Walmart sent in their largest-ever order for more. It’s about ideology and TDS in light of the upcoming elections. Lindell is too effective in pointing out fraud.

It’s all about money. If they were making money, it would not happen.
If you go to the MyPillow website and then the War Room “box”, you can get one for $19.88/ea. using the promo code which, IIRC, is Warroom.
It’s more expensive than a $5 pillow, but is worth not waking up with headaches any more.
i woudl just add to that “I’ve seen the excuse that the pillows are selling as well, and I find that hard to believe when demand for his pillows has skyrocketed the last few years- the excuse is unacceptable, and I and my family and any of my friends whom i can speak to about the issue will be shopping elsewhere-”
we bought one too and it is lumpy- i do not like it at all-
