I have pretty much given up on WalMart...they certainly have low prices and employ a lot of un-employable types...but the quality of the stuff there is crap and really not cheap...I really donot care for the management either and I hate the way WM has caved to the Left!!

but the quality of the stuff there is crap and really not cheap.

I went to a WM store a couple years ago to buy some ammo and on the way out noticed a rack of flannel shirts at incredibly low prices ($9 per shirt). So I thought what the heck and bought a few. Within a year every last one of them fell apart -- buttons, fabric, color ....everything. Lesson learned.

I generally try to shop local stores as much as possible, but I do some grocery shopping at Wal because their produce is fresher, a lot more turnover (one of our Supercenters has moved to the 'upscale' grocery formats.).. they also have some items you can’t get in local groceries.. plus, the 24 hour thing is nice sometimes..

But overall, I agree, the people are rude, the stores are dirty, and I would never touch most of their products.

I avoid Walmarts in general. Now this makes me feel even better.

Their stuff is junk, the stores out here are dominated by those who cannot speak English (at all!). Unruly kids running through the aisles over dropped merchandise.

When I enter our local store, it feels like I have left the US and am in some 3rd world hell hole.

Oh, and the store smells.

I *despise* Walmart and all that it stands for: Terrible Customer Support, Apathetic Employees, products with shoddy workmanship, and so on.

Everything we’ve ever bought from our Walmart has fallen apart. Sometimes you really do get what you pay for!
