So, had to hit the Rice Lake, WI Walmart for a few bike tires after flats at scout camp (24" 🤷)

I rarely go in the Twin cities metro, but noticed that the rural/small town Walmart was cleaner, better stocked, and had less freaky looking people than the metro suburb one I someone go to.

Plus, the camping section was huuuuuuuge

I've been drug to tha local walmarts the past two evenings.
It was the first time I had been to that one in a couple of years.

It happened to coincide with some sort of orientation at Virginia Tech which is about 4-5 miles away.
That made it bearable.

Walmart is like a crescent wrench, we all cuss it but sometimes you just have to use it.

Amazon and Dollar General have helped a lot in keeping me away from Walmart.

The only walmart that I have been into in 20 some years is the one in the small town where my hunting lease is located near. There was no other option. I end up going into it about once every 3 years.

I have to admit, lately I've been sneaking off to wal-mart around 9pm when there isn't much of a crowd (although many of them are weirdos) and buying their off brand stuff.

You can't buy herbs, or peppers at our local grocery store.

All Walmarts are not the same. The one in little Wiggins MS is actually pretty darned good. I'd rather jam splintered toothpicks up my cockhole than to go into some of them.

Gawd almighty....Walmart is the only place in Montana where you CANT buy that stuff.


No idea how all the dispensaries (current and planned) plan to stay open.

Probably more painful than pissing with a case of the clap.

7 miles might as well be a world apart from the small town wal-mart and the county one.

The county one doesn't need a bank, it needs a dentist

Metro Wallyworlds are not at all comparable to the others. You pretty much nailed why.

I have zero issues with Walmart. I suspect it may matter where one lives.

The one in Grand Haven is really nice, the one 20 miles away in Muskegon is the pits!!!!!

Wal-Mart can be a lot like the DMV. You take a look around and wonder where the hell the normal people are. The employees will have schidt attitudes at both places and you'll feel a need to take a shower when you leave.
