| | | Bloody paper towels from Walmart
Yesterday we noticed that our roll of paper towels that we purchased from Wal-mart had blood stains. We didn't notice until we were 1/2 way through the roll. We started to unroll it a bit and noticed a trail of blood and blood smears. Do we have a case? |

| | | Why don't you just return the paper towels? What is wrong with people? Must you sue for everything? How about you open a savings account, and everytime you think about suing someone, add a dollar, in one year it will be like you won a lawsuit minus the trouble. |

Further, did Wal Mart MAKE the paper towels?
Did Sam Walton bleed on them himself?
Sorry, you are not getting a payday from this. Beind disgusted does not amount to a lawsuit. It amounts to a replacement roll of paper towels, however, you should contact the MANUFACTURER of the paper towels and let them know what you found. They'll send you a few coupons to go towards your next purchase.

| | | If the OP had to get to the middle of a roll of paper towels to find the alledged "blood", I would bet it's not blood but ink. If the stains were red, it's not blood. Old blood would have been brown to almost black. I would bet it's just an ink stain from a machine that prints the designs on the paper towels.

Permanent fear of ink... hypersensitivity to floral designs... loss of use of paper towels... I smell millions
