Are you terrified of the Wal-Mart?

    I don't shop there with any regularity even though there is a small Walmart Neighborhood Market close to home.  I generally pass it by and go to the Publix unless it's late.  The Walmart grocery store is 24/7.  It's not terrifying either.  : )

    No, but then I won't shop there so it isn't a pressing issue for me.

    Wal*Mart's are known to be homeless friendly, you can park your car or RV. overnight and not have a problem, that to me makes Wal*Mart a way cool store.

    The only WalMart I shop at is the supermarket.  Never have a problem there and their prices are excellent.

    I might be if some day I come near one. Do they really have an 'evil smiley' floating over the building?

    I love the Wal-Mart.  Does not terrify me what so ever.  But the video I posted has some interesting commentary.

    I love that grocery store.  There are a LOT of bargains aplenty and it is open LATE.  I don't think ours is open 24 hours but it is open after school and I get out at 10:30 so that helps a lot.  I like to shop when I am already IN the car versus getting into the car just to go shop and pick up things I need. 

    Thanks TM

    You are brave indeed.  Just kidding. I like Wal-Mart.  It is fun to make fun of it.

    Our parking lots are Huuooge around our Wal Marts so I am not as terrified as parking in the Fry's in Sun City.  OH MY GOD. You have to have 4 sets of eyes in that one.   Everyone is one hundred years old and it is always packed.  I'm sure you can envision the results.

    I agree, Bahama.  I like to pick on the Wal-Mart.   But I really like them.  (ssshhhh)

    Spunky, I agree totally. 

    They do not have everything I need, but I go there just to get certain things.

    Nah.  It is a harmless and kind of fun store, actually.

    What you need to do in that case is sell brands they do not carry and there are PLENTY of brands they don't carry.  They go for the generic and cheap as a rule.

    I sold cosmetics there and I found a lot of good brands but the really high-end things, they just don't recognize.  So it is like that throughout the store. 

    I did buy an excellent Hewlett-Packard printer for 30 bucks that would have cost me about 4 x's that much years ago.   They learned how to duplicate everything in the printer in plastic.  I'm sure that is how they got by with this cost.

    They have a lot of technical equipment that would delight you, Mr. B.

    It isn't the store that scares me so much as the people who go there ;)

    They have pretty much all I need and I love the program you can join where if they find the item you bought for a lower price, they refund you the difference.
