'Disheartening' is right.. Chains destroy unsold clothing?
H&M and Wal-Mart destroy and trash unsold goods
by Joanna Douglas, Shine Staff, 20 hours ago http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/beaut...-goods-562909/ This week the New York Times reported a disheartening story about two of the largest retail chains. You see, instead of taking unsold items to sample sales or donating them to people in need, H&M and Wal-Mart have been throwing them out in giant trash bags. And in the case that someone may stumble on these bags and try to keep or re-sell the items, these companies have gone ahead and slashed up garments, cut off the sleeves of coats, and sliced holes in shoes so they are unwearable.
