I asked them to check if any in stock at other wal-mart stores close by.
- told "check all local stores and none in stock"
I asked to speak with store manager
- told "no store manager is in. Try again on monday"
I asked them if this was a case of false advertising
- they said no because it is a problem with the supplier...late delivery.

I don't think your complain warrants much attention but I will say this. I was two steps from the president and owner of a company I used to work for. I was in charge of the facility for several hours a day dealing with customers, etc. Sometimes we would be out of stock on stuff and the best answer I could give was "well, we'll have it when it comes in, and I don't know when that will be" because I WAS NOT IN CHARGE OF INVENTORY ORDERING. I had no idea when we'd get the stuff in.
I was two levels from the president of the company and I didn't know, you really think some low level employee in Wal mart, being paid 7 dollars an hour because the gov't won't let them be paid only 5 an hour, would know? Of course not. Wal mart keeps its prices down by keeping its inventory low. It sucks, I know, but it's their right to do so. Frustrating. If you don't like that, shop somewhere else!
