NYT: A Clothing Clearance Where More Than Just the Prices Have Been Slashed
The Times is reporting that both Wal-Mart and H&M in New York are destroying and discarding unsold clothes, rather than donate them to charity. Unbelievable. The Salvation Army sells clothes by the bale to merchants who re-sell them in the third world…. H&M can’t even get that together?
Update: H&M says they’ll stop immediately in this store, and make sure no other stores are doing it.
