Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Anybody been to an actual Wal-Mart lately?

We have a Walmart Neighborhood Market close to our house. Its pretty upscale and convenient. I go there a couple times a week and never have need to go to one of the big Wal-Marts. I probably hadn’t been to one of them in more than a year.

I went to get a cheap TV for the patio. Holy schit, it’s like some sort of dystopian scene from some crappy movie. Half the merchandise in certain sections (electronics) is locked up and you have to get some surly black chick to unlock it. The people…oh the people inside. No checkers. No problem use self checkout. Oh, self checkout doesn’t take cash. Get beeped going out the door have to pull out receipt and treated like criminal.

I know Amazon is the enemy, but none of these corporations are any better than the other. I’m going with the one that has this schit on my porch tomorrow evening without having to venture forth and feel like I’m on the set of Soylent Green.

I just ordered a bag of potting soil from Amazon for $3.77 with free delivery.

Home Depot is 7 miles away and they wanted $12.50 for the same bag and I'd have to drive there AND go in the store.

Walmart isn't even a contender..

And BTW, my orders on Amazon are American made products purchased through American small businesses.

They're fugking horrible.

And it seems they are hell bent on getting worse.

The only Walmart here is a superstore. I don't like it but need to go there regularly. It sure beats the Target a mile away. Their pharmacy is kind of strange. My wife had knee surgery a few weeks ago and they don't sell oxycodone. We go to Costco for that. On the other hand, my wife had a diabetic dog that needed daily insulin injections. Walmart's price on insulin was 1/4 the price of any place else in town, $26 vs $95 for a small bottle. Seems that Walmart owns the insulin factory, literally, and they sell it at a greatly reduced price.

I needed 6 brokedick tires for my beater dually.

Ordered online... 2-3 days to ship... pulled in and dropped off the rims... mounted and balanced @ $5 each and in the bed of my truck 30 minutes later.

$20 tip... easy peasy.



ACTUALLY going inside a Walmart? Hell no... freak show.

Sounds like a geography issue rather a Wal Mart one. No cages or bars around things where I live, & cash still works.

Yep, folks say we're backward around here. I say thank you so very much.

The Walmarts in Livingston, Woodville, and Jasper have the ugliest white trash women in America.

Amazon has a full pharmacy. LINK

You don't really 'NEED' to go to Wallyworld, it's the choice you make.

Ain't no Amazon gonna ship me cilantro and chard.

I went to one the other day because nothing else in the area was open.

When did they stop selling handgun ammo?

4-5 years ago.

I try to stay away, but once in a while I need something there. Shredded hashbrowns have been in short supply at the local markets, but I was able to score some at the Walmart. Just stay away at the first of the month when the Rez gets their .gov checks.

Well, It's tha walmarts....so

Ours isn't "dystopian" at all, but I only go when I have to, maybe 8-10 times a year.

At least I don't have to smell all the covid relief money pot wafting through the Walmart Neighborhood Market and Publix parking lots any more.

I can't stand Jeff Bezos' politics. But, I can order stuff from Amazon and have it on my front porch in 24 hours. Sometimes in 4-6 hours. And usually a lot cheaper than anywhere else.

"Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil"... prayer answered,

As opposed to a virtual Wal-Mart?

I love going to our Walmart, lots of chubby chicks and very few non whites!

I try to avoid Wal-Mart, but went to one yesterday, to get some red worms, and beer. I thought I was in Mexico!
