I've gone to Walmart several times to see if they would mark down some annuals I had really wanted but were near death (knew that they could be rescued with a little TLC) but was told "No." I then asked to speak with the manager of the garden dept. and this person told me no. I then flat out told the person that they would never get anyone to buy the plant at the full price they were asking. Why wouldn't you (WM) take some money rather than take a complete loss? He just said he couldn't and I left the store shaking my head.
