After bingeing on Christmas inventory, the world's biggest retailer has been forced to take drastic steps in recent weeks to clear stores and warehouses of excess goods, according to sources close to the company.

The culprit: disappointing December sales.

"It looks like they are in danger of heading into another negative 'comp' for the quarter," according to an executive at a major Wal-Mart supplier, referring to the retailer's fourth-quarter comparable-store sales, or sales at stores open at least a year -- a key measure of performance.

Store executives are now scrambling to dispose of unsold merchandise across a slew of product categories, including food, cosmetics, clothing and toys, according to sources.
