THAT would be nice...I'd like to have the choice of paying a bit more for quality goods that will last vs some Chinese junk we get at Wal-Mart.

The greeters annoy me. In fact, almost everything about Walmart annoys me. I gave up on them recently. Too much noise, too many children running around, too trashy, poor service, and their new shopping carts gave me an electrical shock! That was the last straw.

I've noticed Walmarts are generally cleaner in good areas of town, and are more out of hand in bad parts of town.

Yes, but even in nicer areas, they don't put much effort into noise reduction, customer service, or a comfortable shopping environment.

Ohh yeahh. Eliminate the position that a poor elderly person needs or college kid trying to make it usually has.

And then when kids don't find job, they want to label my generation as lazy and "Wahh they still live at home".

Suckers.

Dude, I was getting shocked so badly, I thought, "F--k it!" I just left the cart in the middle of the aisle, walked out, and drove the extra five minutes to Target.

I sure showed them!

If they closed because of Walmart, then they weren't good enough businesses to survive and won't be opening after walmart is gone! LOL!

They would be over-qualified.
