Say what you want about Walmart

I avoided Walmart for years. I would rather pay double than to deal with their employees and people that shop there. Total ghetto and trash nonsense. But inflation makes it a necessary evil now. If you follow a few rules, it can be done. Get there when it opens. Typically, the bonnet brigade and trailer trash are "sleeping in" type folks. Self-checkout is gone but choose an older person cashier. They tend to be friendlier, and don't have the "I hate white people" attitude. Park as far away as possible, as there are a ton of incidents in the closer parking spots. Have a plan when you go in. This is a grab what you need and get out plan.
 
Walmart was really cool during the pandemic, they were allowed to remain open while all the local mom and pop small businesses that my community depended on (bike repair shops) were forced to lock down remained closed for several months (too bad so sad) and eventually closed down.

Thanks Walton family, every time I have to make minor repairs on my bike, I can travel several miles away to another town OR I can just throw away my old bike and walk into Walmart buy a new bike and give the billionaire saints my money instead.
 
There's a Lotta bad ones in Wayne County, I'm legit curious where the one you were at is located.


I'm in livonia, the one right by me is a gladiatorial arena that I don't go to unarmed and try really hard not to go to period but once in a while you are making something for dinner and you are missing something and it's right across the street. But the last few years meijars and Kroger near me have also become super ghetto so you can't really avoid it.

Lincoln Park Kroger is super ghetto lol

Don't really go to Southgate Walmart after dark either. That place gets weird.
 
@lsa is probably a Wal-Mart clerk...and live in the warehouse when his shift is over...
 
I was not a fan of the one where I live, because they had like 50 self check outs, and one actual register, and I refuse to use self check out for medium to large orders, so it took forever.

Luckily, they figured that was stupid, and now have like 4-5 alwasy open.

The weird things is the registers are open, and some lanes are empty, the self checkout is still packed

Literally not Wal Mart's fault that governments worldwide engaged in an organized coordinated effort to take away people's rights and income over a glorified cold when these same governments couldn't agree on pretty much anything before 2020. But keep blaming billionaires when the vast majority of them are woke if it makes you feel better.

Just like everything else in life, going too far one way or the other is always a bad thing. I'm like you, if I've got my cart filled I'm not going through the self-checkout. It's for when you're buying 20 items or less, like the old school express checkout lane. For one thing, it doesn't have enough bags to handle a full cart's worth of stuff.
 
I know the corporate greed angle completely. But they're fantastic. I live in the middle of nowhere where I depend on Amazon for everything. 3 days for a laptop power supply I broke tripping a couple of hours ago. Walmart delivered it in half an hour for $4.95 delivery charge.

I think the 6/7 years I lived in San Jose I avoided it like the plague and probably went there 6/7 times. But the one here's not bad at all.

We don't have Walmart here, I've seen a lot of videos of fights in Walmart though, I'd wear a mouthguard if I ever shopped there.

The richest companies in the world all stumbled into record profits at the same time thanks to them diabolical governments. Just a big coincidence, no correlation between wealthy campaign donors, either woke or based, that have interest with every horse in the race
 
@fingercuffs If you live in the SoCal desert and ever visit Joshua Tree you need to hit up the Yucca Valley Walmart. It was straight out of the Hills Have Eyes.

Never went in there during my time/s at Stumps.

I will say this, I always got a weird feeling driving past that part of town.

This was a common sight in the yards of the the homes.

I was there 20 years ago right now and we got some libo. At the time it was the meth capital of North America.

Thats cause theyre all thiefs, Sid, thats why they stay in self checkout, over there sneakily only putting 3 bananas on the weight scale when they know they really got 5 bananas and a whole peach in the cart!
 
It brings in the worst of the worst. I’m on the end of the spectrum. I’d rather wait 2-3 days to get something than have to go to Walmart.
 
The worst thing Walmart ever did was stop being open 24/7. Wish I had a Winco close by.

When I got there in 1994, they were still the meth champs.

Scrappers were always a problem.

When I left Lejeune in the same year, J-Ville had the highest AIDS rate in the US, too.
