walmart20registers.jpg

I despise shopping at walmart though its the closet store to me that I can do decent grocery shopping at.

The lines are forever long...
Why are there 30 registers but only a couple always open??
& the ones that are open the lights are always flashing and the CM are NOT coming to see whats WRONG!!!

Ugh!!!

    I despise wal-mart. Every time I walk into that place, I feel like I die a little inside. Everyone (employees AND customers) are so morose. No one is happy to be there.

    I avoid going there if at all possible. I wish Target stayed open later.

    I used to work for Walmart and at least around here they are going downhill fast! Terrible customer service for sub-par products (food at least). I am almost completely done buying food from them at least!!

    I use to work for a few walmarts a few years ago to.

    Idk about going downhill but I have heard that walmart is tryin to find a way to fire all FULL time employees and hire a bunch of PART time employees so that they no longer have to pay for medical benefits...

    I don't know why people feel the need to bring every one of their 12 children to stand around blocking the aisle, or worse, running around tripping people. Jeez, can't they have the older ones watching the young ones at home??
    It makes me homicidal.

    And it always seems like the only registers that are open are the slowest cashiers in the whole store. Lol.

    I very briefly lived in D'iberville, Mississippi and it really was the only thing to do at night, go walk around the neighborhood Wal-Mart.

    Because all the Winn-Dixies and Piggly-Wigglys close at 10.... :indifferent:

    no self check out in ours... I like it to go people watching (I know shame on me blablabla)

    I don;t mind shopping there... for some reason I always end up near the hunting section or the car maintenance section.... can't never have enough oil in your garage..... important to keep things lubed up....

    I actually don't mind them THAT much. I mean, I don't like how they've taken on the food aspect cause I find their produce, meat and anything that isn't in a box/can pretty poor but if I need anything I know I can grab it there for the most part at not a crazy price.

    The customer service IS bad but I sort of expect it at this point and tolerate it because their return policy is bloody amazing. They opened self checkouts here but I think there was too much theft so they took them out and installed an express line where one line filters into about 4-6 checkout girls (items under 12). It's a pretty good system actually but I cringe if I have more than 12 items since there's only about 2 normal lines open. Bah.

    Depends on the store. I will travel the 5 miles
    to the next town, and shop at that one, but hate
    the one right up the street.

    Normally I do most of my shopping at the local
    Food Lion. If they get more than 3-4 people in
    a line, or see someone with a full cart, they're
    calling for backup!

    I like Wal-Mart. Line-ups suck everywhere.... if they don't it's probably 'cause they charge more... there's a reason Wal-Mart is ALWAYS busy & that is mostly pricing!

    I guess time is money doesn't apply to people who have all the time in the world.
