If true, this would indicate Wal-Mart has begun an unsolicited/spam email advertising scheme.

Absolutely nuts. All of the effort put into combating spam, and then something as huge as Wal-Mart joins the dark side. If they are joining the spammers, it'll be basically impossible to stop them.

Commented.

Meh, who cares.

We get that much spam anyway, how is one company going to make a difference.
Just report it as spam, sorted.

It doesn't bother me too much these days.
