Recently Wal-Mart, in an effort to spread its wholesome image as a family store, said it would put covers on a few women's magazines that typically display racy pictures and story titles.
For its part, Wal-Mart said the pictorial "is in poor taste." "Based on our values, we will be disappointed if any of our people do participate in it," said spokesman Tom Williams. "However, individuals are free to do what they want."
"We knew that this would be a very provocative thing for us to do," said John Thomas, editor of Playboy.com. "Wal-Mart has a conservative corporate image and we knew they wouldn't be thrilled. But we're hoping that the company will be pleased once they see how fun the pictures are and how empowered the women at Wal-Mart feel."
Nesheim said the six models, including a photo lab technician, assistant manager and a department manager, were paid for their feature but would not disclose the amount.
"We received over 400 responses from Wal-Mart employees. That's more than the responses we got from both Enron and ( : , ) employees," said Jay Nesheim, spokeswoman for Playboy.com.
In September Playboy.com had announced it was searching for the sexiest women at Wal-Mart, the world's biggest retailer. ( : up $0.37 to $16.88, , ) ran a similar-themed 'Women of Enron' last year and 'Women of Starbucks' photospreads in the magazine earlier this year.
Playboy.com launches the "Women of Wal-Mart" pictorial.
"This was a once in a lifetime opportunity," said Tesha Mullen, one of the feature's models. "When I heard about the pictorial, I knew right away that I wanted to send in photos. Some of the most beautiful women in the world have posed for Playboy and it is an honor to have been selected for this feature."
Playboy.com's controversial "Women of Wal-Mart" feature went live Wednesday, showcasing six of Wal-Mart's "sexiest" female employees who dared to shed their uniforms for the online pictorial.

It seems unlikely retailers will heed these warnings. In spite of repeated negative publicity, they continue to learn lessons from the music industry – suing their own customers until they have no business left.
Add common sense to your shrinkage policy – why are customers purchasing hundreds of dollars being detained for $8 items?
Do not sue customers – who have been judged innocent in criminal court.
Allow customers to explain – accept reasonable explanations even if some may be false
Do not forcibly detain customers – unless unambiguous evidence of a crime exists.
Approach customers politely – some of them will be innocent.
Retailers would be wise to adopt a more customer-friendly attitude towards potential theft. A few thoughts:
This all stems from a very anti-brand attitude which assumes that consumers are all guilty until proven innocent. The price for this belief is huge reputation damage in word of mouth and negative publicity.
This example is one of many detailed by The Wall Street Journal and experienced by innocent consumers around the country. Retailers are combating a real problem – the estimated $40 billion annual cost of shrinkage (losses to theft, shoplifting and other consumer fraud) – but doing so in a manner that harms their brands and causes unmeasurable damage to their revenue.
To add insult to injury, a month after the charges had been dropped, Rudge received a letter from the Palmer Reifler law firm demanding $3,000. That sum increased by another $3,000 when he ignored the letter. Mr. Rudge was threatened with a visit from the Sheriff’s office in the second letter. Fortunately, Mr. Rudge was doing handyman work for an attorney who filed suit for him and recovered undisclosed damages from Home Depot.
In one case cited by the Wall Street Journal, a handyman in Miami named Glenn Rudge was detained at Home Depot after he checked out because a clerk observed a set of $8 drill bits poking from his shirt pocket. He was handcuffed in the store by a guard and the store refused to let him call home and ask his wife to bring the receipt for the drill bits in to the store. He was charged by prosecutors who then dropped the charges when he produced the receipt.
If handled appropriately, this might not be a foolish practice for the brand. Recovering damages from those who have committed criminal acts against the brand lowers the cost for law-abiding consumers. Unfortunately, like many other practices administered by corporate financial people without any brand oversite, this one casts too wide a net with disastrous results.
We have been ranting for about companies that pursue business strategies that harm the brand. A yesterday highlights another such practice. Companies including The Home Depot, Wal-Mart and Lord & Taylor are hiring law firms to threaten or pursue civil litigation against suspected shoplifters to recover damages. They do this in addition to criminal proceedings.
