    Thumbs up Wal-Mart selling Kilts...

    What a thought huh?

    I just realized over the last couple of months I have been splurging. A new kilt on the way, some new hose, some hose toppers, a new jacket, a new shirt, ordering kilt accessories for my groomsmen. It has been exciting, and expensive.

    In reflection, and in my inbox, I realized, Where else in my everyday travels do I recieve the service I recieve from the kilt world? All my e-mails were answered quickly, even when they were out of town, or busy moving into a new house. (That would be Rocky at USA and Sydnie at flamingo kilts.)

    Or immediate shipping services and kind words...(Jerry at stillwater.)

    Or the unbiased advice from Matt newsome, the tartans museum, or Freedom kilts.

    Or the PMs from every day people who are willing to turn their hobby of cross stitching into a beautiful accessory at little to no cost?

    I can not even remember a time that I recieved the friendship and service even near the level I have recieved from the kilt world. Thank you, and keep it up, its working. (My wallet is dry.)

    Me, too. Though it would be interesting to see Kilts on their racks.

    Might make the kilt more readily acceptable...

    But then, I kinda like that this is our own little niche and is seen as quirky! A friend of mine once complained that every time she started wearing some kind of style that wasn't mainstream, it became the "in" fashion within a few years... and she'd have to find something new to differentiate herself from the sheep of the world.

    Kilts might still be a bit much for some people to handle. Even if they were available at WalMart.

    Aye, but the "sheep of the world" can make for some mighty fine tasting haggis!

    Yes it is scary, and would be like Gold Bros. taking over the world, but think about it. Kilts at walmart, it would mean that our hard work in educating people has worked and kilts are main stream again. Think how nice it would be to walk down the street and not be in inundated be a sea of denium.
