I ask because I absolutely despise Walmart. Evil corporation is an understatement. Anyway, I am lucky enough to live in a mid-sized city where there are plenty of other shopping options, even if it's just Target or Food Lion. I would always much rather give my money to a small mom and pop shop than to WM. I understand I guess if Walmart is pretty much the only game in town for ya, I know a lot of small towns are like that including my town in Arkansas.
Yeah. So. How often do you give them your money? Why do you do it? Is there nowhere else to shop? Or do you just like their conveniently "Always low prices" etc?

Isn't it nice that you have those options? Nobody is going to force you to shop anywhere you don't want to and it's probably a relief that you stay away if your local store is as busy as ours is. They won't miss you. And they don't need a 'frowny face' of someone who despises where they work. Yay for you!
I work there. It's convenient for me. The other stores in town are higher in prices, mostly, but when they have a good sale I can get the same thing at Walmart for the same price. I don't have to run all over town to get the sales.
Yeah, who said Target and Food Lion were mom and pop? Besides you?

The measure of my contribution is purely subjective, "LordHelmit."
Why do you feel the need to denigrate the largest private employer in the U.S.? Do you hate all those employees? Do you want them to all lose their jobs?
The two sentences are side by side. Oh no. That definitely 100% positively means that I absolutely think Food Lion and Target are mom and pop shops. For sure.

Work on your reading comprehension skills. Not one word of mine suggested that I hate Walmart employees or that I wanted them to lose their jobs. If you don't know why Walmart is pretty much the worst corp in America... google it. I'm not going to sit here and explain it to you.
