Walmart Didn’t Think This Through?

Walmart found itself sending apology tweet after apology tweet Monday after the Twitterverse raked it over the coals for a major goof on its website.

For whatever inexplicable reason, the retail giant's site featured a Halloween category, titled "Fat Girl Costumes." You won't find it there now, thank goodness, but it stayed there for a large part of the morning -- and long enough for multiple screen grabs. The presence of the category was first reported by Jezebel, which in turn was alerted by a reader who stumbled upon it while looking for costumes.

It was basically a collection of costumes that you'd usually find on the site's plus-size women's section. After Twitter users complained in droves, Wal-Mart took down the section and sent out multiple apology tweets. They also said on ABC morning news show ATM it was just a placeholder and they were going to use another line. Sure, good try.
