I’m not. Our “old” WalMart was a legacy rural store, and you could tell just by the inventory. It was dark, the aisles were narrow and tall, and if there were 50 people in the place it felt crowded.
They built a new “supercenter” about a mile and a half away from my house in the twennyteens. I can get there in a matter of minutes, even when it’s busy it’s easy to get around in, and it well stocked (even though they don’t do night stock anymore and the aisles are always full of pallets.) I still don’t like Walmart, but I’m not stupid. If I can buy brand name stuff there cheaper than anyone else, that’s where I’m going… -D > On Apr 1, 2023, at 5:10 PM, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > I sure wish we had the Walmart of the old days still. > > Sent from my iPhone > >> On Apr 1, 2023, at 4:01 PM, Allan Streib via Mercedes >> <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: >> >> The WalMart here isn’t too bad as WalMarts go.
