I despise Wal-Mart. Years ago I read an article about them and one of the vice presidents said that they keep their costs low so they don't have to charge as much so that their customers can save money. Be honest, you're in business to make money. You make money by getting the most customers coming in instead of going somewhere else. You're not in business to help people save money. If this vp said that they kept costs low so the customers would come back I would have been happy. Nope. They tried to be pc and say that everything they do is to help the customer save money.
Tell the truth and I'll be going there all the time. I only went there today because some of the things I needed (printer ink) wouldn't be in a grocery store and I didn't feel like venturing out into other cities to find a office supply store.
In my old house we had two Wal-marts within 15 miles. Both of them were scary. I think the gangs declared them neutral ground so they wouldn't shoot each other but since I wasn't in a gang I don't think that applied to me. Some of the employees and customers were displaying a lot of dew rags and handkerchiefs in either blue or red. I made sure I was carrying any time I went into the place.
Then I go into this one and it's clean, there is room to wheel the cart around without a problem. When I asked an employee where something was he took me to it instead of pointing and grunting like I'm used to experiencing. It also had a large selection of yarn and sewing stuff. It even had rifles, the ones in my old city didn't; I think it's because they didn't want their employees to violate any parole/probation conditions.
I think Sam Walton would have been proud of this location. The other two...he's spinning in his grave because of them.
