Too Good to Keep

Throwing away new clothes is company policy, if that company is Walmart.  The retail giant is probably guilty of dumping bags of merchandise, instead of donating those items to charity.  You can read http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/06/nyregion/06about.html for more information.
One possible reason for the odd behavior is that the store doesn't want people to return those items for a refund, according to http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread532542/pg1.  If that's the case, then Walmart should only give returns when the customer has a receipt.  The company should adjust its secret policy, or at least openly admit that it throws out unsold merchandise.
