Wal Mart
Encouranges "No Boundaries"
Wal Mart refused to carry RU-486 which allows our
daughter's control over their own bodies but in
their 1/30-2/5/02 "Valentine's Day" direct
mail supplement they encourage "No Boundaries"
through the sale of "panties" called "No
Boundaries®" using a
federally registered and trademarked name. They
also sell "Secret Treasures" bikini thongs and
"Lovable Satin" bras. Just who are they trying to
seduce? (See ad above.) Note: Wal Mart has
aquiested, maybe because of pressure from the
states, to carry RU-486 (prescriptions only) and
condoms, which are often hidden around the
pharmacy.
Each year Wal Mart adds to its "No Boundaries"
thong line for young girls. Here are a few of the
new messages purchased at Wal Mart on 2/3/08:

In 2005, they've added screen-printed shorts to
the "Girls' No Boundaries' line of products."
In 2003/04 they expanded their use of seductive
names to, once again, promote Junior Intimates
(underwear). The ad includes "Juniors' No
Boundaries Bra and Panty Set", "Juniors' No
Boundaries Panties" in new designs, "Juniors' No
Boundaries Woven Boxers" and "Ladies' Secret
Treasures Boyleg Panty".

Wal Mart
"Junior" Panties Suggest that a Young Girl's
Genitals Will be more Effective than Credit
Cards
"Over at Feministing, a reader noticed these
panties in the "juniors" section at the Wal Mart on
Kildare Farms Road in Cary, NC.
"Who needs credit
cards."
"While we can't disagree with the strict literal
interpretation of the message, perhaps Wal Mart
should consider printing it on a wallet, rather
than on panties meant for teenage girls. The whole
prostitution angle is clouding the message of
fiscal responsibility. Hey, it's just a
suggestion."
