I was perusing the clearance section of Hagerstown’s original Walmart store (not the new store) when I stumbled upon this gem. It’s a Callaway golf hat on clearance for only $5. Even though I like golf hats and things on clearance, I passed on this hat. The reason? Because it’s obviously used and extremely disgusting. It looks like it spent the last 11 months on the head of a homeless man training for a 10K fun run.
How did this end up on a shelf at Walmart with a price sticker on it?
I have two theories. The first is that someone with massive Jedi skills brought it back to Walmart. They then convinced someone at the Customer Service desk to allow them to return it for a refund. The second and more likely theory is that someone pulled a switcharoo. They probably went to the Sporting Goods department and took this piece of garbage off their head and put a new brand-new Callaway golf hat on their disgusting head. They then walked out of the store like they were a normal person.
Whoever put this clearance sticker on the hat should have noticed something was amiss. Didn’t they notice how badly their hands smelled after handling it?
Like a lot of the things I see, hear, and smell at Walmart, this is just gross.
Update
I had to stop at Walmart to buy new windshield wipers after posting this. I checked the clearnace section and surprise, surprise, the hat is still available to purchase.
