It could be bad tubes but as others mentioned it could be a loose valve or the valve was damaged somehow when attaching the pump head or possibly dirt got into the valve. Unscrew the valve core and inspect it for dirt, a bent pin or damaged seal. In any case there's no need to throw away the tube as you can get replacement Schrader valve cores for cheap at most auto parts stores if a new one is needed.
