F... Wal-Mart

Do I even need to elaborate??

Ok I will...

Great prices, but the the place can be a damn freak show with the people who shop and work there.

Why do they have like 50 cash out lanes and only 2 are open at any given time?

Re: F... Wal-Mart

I cannot visit Wal-Mart on the weekends. I might as well just walk from my house because I swear I can see people parking in my driveway to get a spot to walk to Wal-Mart.

If they keep slashing prices why isn't everything free?

Re: F... Wal-Mart

its probably the same in every wm but our local one has demo games in the electronic dept. and its like parents use that as a babysitter while they do their shoping. you cant even get through to look at what games they have in stock.

Re: F... Wal-Mart

The only Wal-Mart in MoCo is in Germantown, so of course, every hillbilly, redneck, and cornucopia of ethnicity comes out of the woodwork to shop there. The only time I go is if I absolutely have to, and someone's holding me at gunpoint to do so. And the store is always in such disarray.

Wal-Mart is a great place to go at 2am, because it's empty and those in there will amuse you, making it a better experience.

Yeah, i don't go often but if I see something online that is much cheaper I go there. Sometimes after my birthday I head on out to spend my money. Last time I was there there were kids actually climbing the racks and jumping off into a pile of bean chairs. Moms were yelling and kids were screaming. Not bad prices though. I got my 24 season dvds hella cheap.

The only reason to hate Walmart is it beats the shit out of the little guy. I mean no one can compete with walmart. For the consumer it is great and if you cant beat it, join it. Walmart offers a ton of jobs and can be a boost to an economy of a run down place. for my little stock market project at school i put some play money into their stock but it isn't doing all that great but it did go up some. I like Wal-mart. I can buy all this stuff so damn cheap and all i have to do is put up with some babies screaming. The people who manage those stores probably make a shit load. They could hold Walmart in a tent in the middle of winter and there still would be people there. I like it.

No, people who CHOOSE WAL*MART over the smaller businesses beat the little guys. I shop at small businesses because of their better service, shorter lines and closer proximity to my home. I made that choice despite paying a little more...I'm paying for service and I'll gladly pay more to walk out happy instead of frustrated. The only thing WAL*MART is guilty of is a successful business plan.

I don't see people picketing Sears or even Target because they "hurt the little guy".

I like to play kickball at Wal-Mart at the time. Always a fun game.

Re: F... Wal-Mart

When I was in high school, one of my close friends worked in the toy department at Wal-Mart. So we not only used to get discounts on stuff...but every once in a while, we'd give him something to do. Kickball, bike riding, and toss back and forth between aisles were big games. We also used to take random toys and put them in different aisles. Hula Hoops make great frisbees...
