We've shopped at Walmart's since they showed up around here...probably in the late seventies. I've never been a big supporter, but they were the only place to shop for a lot of stuff for a long time. I haven't ran them down like a lot of people. I think lately, especially during the COVID, that they've really shown their ass.

Even before the COVID, around here they were "rolling back" their store hours. Two local stores went from being open 24-7 to closing from about 1 am to 5 am or so. No really big deal, but I like the secure feeling of knowing I can go to one and get a lot of stuff any time of the day. Then the nationwide thing of only being open from 6 am to 8:30 pm. Supposedly they were going to disinfect their stores. Fooking stores don't look ANY cleaner to me. I think it's another one of their f u c king scams. Plus, if anything, this made it more dangerous to shop there as many people were funneled in at the same time that would have been more spread out with longer store hours.

Then the tremendous price increase on beef. They are not the only guilty ones, but Walmart HAS to be the biggest grocer in Kansas now and I'm sure many other states...probably the whole country. As such, they drive many trends.

Add in shortages that made little sense and now guns. I was in one of the local Walmarts the other day and there was nothing. I'm sure this wasn't a case of being sold out. Once again, a moralizing corporation knows what's best for common folks. Walmart has to be one of the top gun sellers in the nation...just like grocers and other stuff, they've driven out the competition. Then when folks NEED weapons, they pull them off the shelves because somebody might shoot some thief that was threatening their life or that of their loved ones.

F u c k Walmart.
If everyone would flush a couple of XXL T-shirt's down the toilets across the country at the same time, it will get their attention
I'm flaunting their rules- - - - -walking in the "out" doors, and ignoring the "shop this direction" arrows on the floor. Fun and games!

Why can't any of these f u c k's be satisfied with becoming tremendously wealthy on the backs of average Americans and not have to start manipulating and moralizing. Just sell shixt and be done with it.
You just now done figured out that Walmart does not have your well being first in mind?

I figured that out in 1988, when I bought a pair of loppers that snapped cutting the second branch. But it was CHEAP!

Like a dumb s#it, went to buy a set of Michelin tires for the one ton, at Sam’ club. Found out that Walmart has its own spec’s on many items, including such great ideas as winter tires without the siping. That lesson was at 2 am in Calgary and 30 something below. It kinda made an impression.

I’ll still go to Walmart when it suits me (they are the only tire shop open on Sunday, for example) but I just keep in mind that they are actively trying to deceive me.
I passed one today on purpose and went to dollar general market. Is Kroger any better? I sure hope DG and Kroger arent being boycotted
My goodness. What a rant.
How much do you think WalMart makes directly from the Govt (in the form of welfare/EBT cards)???

I bet 10-20% of their business.

Every time a small business burns down in the ‘hood, or goes bankrupt from Covid or the inability to compete (in a small town), WalMart gets more business.

I thought everyone had relaxed on that BS. But as I was walking up to the entrance the other day another lady was walking in the exit. I guess they had their bulldog at the door counting people run her ass out of there. Made her walk all the way around the barricade and back into the entrance. The look on the womans face. She was fuming.
Have any Walmarts been looted?
Don't know. Good question.
We have them counting(Errr sort of) at some of the stores, but it’s just a slug there with a clicker.

It’s just for looks

He didn’t try to let anyone in as someone came out, he just let everyone in. No comms with anyone at the other door, no person at the other door.

🤣

Those people have a tendency not to bother an old geezer who walks with a cane, particularly if his untucked shirt tail has managed to get flipped up to expose his CCW.

I went to one at 0500 only to be turned away.... Went a few more miles and got 90 percent of my list. Fuggers.
I haven't gone in a Walmart in years. Hope to never go to one again.
I use to do my grocery shopping there between 12-4 AM. Now have to shop with the crowds.
If you don't like Walmart.....don't go there.....seems fairly simple to me.

Here's a Movie/documentary about China Mart.
It's down loaded to YouTube so I'm surprised that it's not been censored and banned yet. When you click on, if it's low resolution, you can kick it up to 720p.

I won't go into it now, but the movie is actually mild compared to the rest of the story. But it's well worth watching.
Keep in mind that lots of folks are being paid by the socialists to stand all day on main Street America, so we can't open the few mom and pop businesses that are left. At the same time the owners of Wally world has commi slave labor factories all over a country that's enslaved their population.. Under Chairman Mao's " experiment" they murdered over 100 million of their own people!

Enjoy

And let me know what you think of it after you watch it.

Used to go when I lived near one for the Lindt chocolate bars. $1 or more cheaper per bar than the Safeway.

Now, it's a two hour trip to the nearest one, I'm usually too busy when up in that town to drive down to the Wal-mart end, and we now have a Grocery Outlet that sometimes has the chocolate bars even cheaper than Wally's.

It was convenient to stop there too, at 10pm or so on the way home from visiting friends, and I lived 30 miles from any other store and they weren't open that late anyway.

Not a factor in my life now.

For all I know, it may be 30 years before I set foot in one again. wink
30 years...?!?!
Walmart sucks. So I don't shop there.

Way back in the late eighties, Walmart floated the idea to have these huge Walmart's called "Hypermarts". There were only four in the whole country. One in Kansas, one in Missouri and two in Texas. Surprisingly, I've been in all but one of them. The Kansas City Hypermart was in this bad part of town. It was located near a nice mall and there were a bunch of nice shops around it. Walmart won't fess up to this but the people around there destroyed it. The mall is gone, torn down. So is the Hypermart. Almost all the stores are gone. The people around there ran them out. High crime area. The one that replaced it, a Supercenter, is miles away and is still bad enough that they have security running around in cars all the time. You don't see that down here in the country or at other KC locations (at least as much). Just folks destroying their own area. Then they wonder about these "food deserts" and such like that where they have to travel out of their own neighborhood just to buy groceries. Well, the shops can't survive in such high crime areas. Nobody wants to be around types that will cut your throat for a Big Mac.
How big were these hypermarts compared to a regular WM ?
I don't know what a regular Walmart is other than they vary greatly. The first Walmart Supercenter opened in Missouri in 1988 and was 125,000 square feet. The last Hypermart was the one I spoke of above and it exceeded 225,000 square feet. Almost double the size. It was indeed very big. The one in Topeka, Kansas was converted to a Supercenter and we still shop there once in awhile. It is huge.
I went to Walmart because I HAD to - needed batteries for my bore sighter,
"Fine Jeweltu" counter is CLOSED so the associates can clean and sanitize and protect customers: Except" 25 "Associates" are standing at the front of the store chewing the fat, on their phones, etc...

I avoid Walmart if at all possible.
I don’t go there!
I live in a rural area and my business is in a small town. Many people I know have worked at Walmart at one point or another. I shop there occasionally, but try to shop at the locally owned small businesses. The longer Walmart has been in town and the more people that I have known that work there it has become more and more evident to me that they have no compassion or loyalty to their workforce. They literally don’t care how long someone has worked there, age that may dictate best work duties/placement or family situations/events and how it effects the workers. They just don’t care and from what I’ve seen or should I say heard from employees there, it’s only getting worse.
I don’t believe any corporation that treats the workforce they depend on can last this way long term. I’m not implying it’s going down soon, but I will not be shocked at all to see it’s decline begin in a few years. That is unless they start changing their attitude toward the workforce.
my town was initially against wal-mart opening up. They had a location selected less than a 1/2 mile from our downtown, and people knowing what Wal-mart did to small business before refused to let them build there. Eventually they chose a location off the interstate about 4 miles away. A few business were there before them - a target, movie theater, office depot. Their impact hasn't been that big. Downtown area is thriving.

I haven't been to a wal-mart since the covid 19 thing and didn't really go there much before. Now that there is a TSC open down the road, I don't have any reason to go anymore. But I do have a wide variety of choices within 3 miles of my house.

I will admit to ordering a few things from them online you can't get in their store. In some cases they are better priced than Amazon and offer free shipping as well.

I haven't been to town in over a week, but last time I was there, the local walmart had a barricade and a walmart gestapo standing at the exit door to prevent patrons from entering that door.

They put up the guns and ammo to reduce the risks of BLM and Antifa rioters getting them.

Now BLM is marching in big box stores in FtWorth.

FOODSTAMPS: Follow the Money


Quote

Food Stamps: Follow the Money Are Corporations Profiting from Hungry Americans?

...Key findings about corporate lobbying on SNAP:

• Powerful food industry lobbying groups teamed up to oppose health-oriented improvements to SNAP
• The food industry also joined forces with anti-hunger groups to lobby against SNAP improvements
• Companies such as Cargill, PepsiCo, and Kroger lobbied Congress on SNAP, while also donating money to America’s top anti-hunger organizations
• At least nine states have proposed bills to make health-oriented improvements to SNAP, but none have passed, in part due to opposition from the food industry
• Coca-Cola, the Corn Refiners of America, and Kraft Foods all lobbied against a Florida bill that aimed to disallow SNAP purchases for soda and junk foodKey findings about how much money retailers gain from SNAP:
• Although such data is readily available, neither USDA nor the states make public how much money individual retailers make from SNAP EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• Congress does not require data collection on SNAP product purchases, despite such data being critical to effective evaluation
• USDA told a journalist in Massachusetts he was not allowed to make public data on retailer redemptions from SNAP—after he received the data
• In one year, nine Walmart Supercenters in Massachusetts together received more than $33 million in SNAP dollars—over four times the SNAP money spent at farmers markets nationwide
• In two years, Walmart received about half of the one billion dollars in SNAP expenditures in Oklahoma • One Walmart Supercenter in Tulsa, Oklahoma received $15.2 million while another (also in Tulsa) took in close to $9 million in SNAP spending.

Key findings about how much money banks gain from SNAP:

• USDA does not collect national data on how much money banks make on SNAP • J.P. Morgan Chase has contracts for Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) in half the states, indicating a lack of competition and significant market power
• Contract terms vary widely among states, indicating a lack of efficiency and standards
• In California, a 7-year contract worth $69 million went to Affiliated Computer Services, a subsidiary of Xerox
• In Florida, J.P. Morgan Chase enjoys a 5-year contract worth about $83 million, or $16.7 million a year• In New York, a 7-year deal originally paid J.P. Morgan Chase $112 million for EBT services, and was recently amended to add $14.3 million—an increase of 13%
• States are seeing unexpected increases in costs, while banks are reaping significant windfalls from the economic downturn and increasing SNAP participation...

A-f u c k i n g-men to that concept.
I don't think they are out of guns. All the local stores moved the guns and ammo into the vault in the back of the store in case of looting for a few days. They are back on the shelves now.
Don't want to play by their rules then STFU and take your business elsewhere. No need to be an internet crybaby, I'm sure Walmart won't miss your patronage.
I live in a rural area and my business is in a small town. Many people I know have worked at Walmart at one point or another.

at Wally -world > wanna have fun some weekend nite ? just stay in your car -truck whatever ,bring some refreshments get there about 9 p.m. bring binoculars too,say tell midnite or later, just sit there and enjoy the show of some of the weirdis people you will ever see .i can`t believe some of the out-fits these people wear,what there hair looks like,some i don`t think they know what clean looks like either.
Angry old boomers are so entitled. If you don't like it don't so there. Real simple, they owe you nothing.
in these parts, all the Walmarts pulled all the guns and ammo off the shelf do to the threat of looting. Co-worker went in one of the local Walmarts and asked about buying some ammo. The guy working the counter asked what he wanted and took a few minutes and went in the back of the store, found the ammo and sold it to him. Co-worker was told that the guns and ammo were all stored in a secure place in the back of the store until the threat of looting was over.
From what I've read, lots of Walmarts have done the same.

Does it ever occur to those who post this "Walmart people" stuff that Walmart simply reflects the demographics of the local area? I live in a county of about 100K with three Walmarts, and previously in a midwestern city of about 50K with two Walmarts. I never saw any of the really far out stuff that is talked about here. Just normal decent mostly working class customers and employees.

As far as employee relations, I doubt Walmart is much different from any other large corporation. They are in business to maximize profit, no matter what they say, and will screw over employees to do it. You have to take their humanitarian propaganda with a grain of salt.

As far as selling Chinese crap, show me a retail outlet that doesn't. Certainly not the local Ace Hardware stores or any big box store.

I'm not defending Walmart, but from what I see, their biggest sin is mostly just being big, and perhaps being a target of the left for resisting unions, but that's another story.

My relative is a manager at a distribution center. He said its not the same company it used to be. Since Sam Walton died, it's run by liberal A-holes. The new CEO is a huge Lib. made all the employees watch a 1.5 hour video about the history of LGBTQ.

Some of ya won't shop at WM but have Amazon Prime or buy there, have cable or satellite TV, watch Net flix then drive around in a made in Mexico pickup whose manufacture gets government subsidies..using Arab fuel
Make sure ya'll don't buy nothing made in China.

I betcha some here even own guns made in Japan

A real man's man.
I avoid wallyworld as much as possible. But I have to admit, they do one thing right. For a while, it made more sense to order groceries online and pick up at the curb (I hate standing in line). Walmart's policy has been for the pickers to only take what they themselves would want. At WM pickup, I was never unhappy with the groceries they brought out. The only other store here doing curbside (Fred Meyer) was bringing out the rotting stuff.

Yeah, I had to go in the other day, and went in the "out" door, as it was closer and there was no line. Got scolded by a Martian headed out. Eh...so what?

I don't know how you manage with your huge balls clanking together.

Something I've noticed about Walmart stores is it seems when they first open a new store it starts out looking well organized and clean and well staffed with quality, helpful employees but as they get older the more disorganized and 'shabby' they start looking and not all but generally speaking likewise the employees. I've watched this happen over time at about four Walmart stores.




I only went for the chicken wings and canned tomatoes.

They didn't have chicken wings the last time. ......they did have arrows on the floor.

I dont like being told what to do.
When the left rebels-

They burn down cities and infiltrate and overthrow the most powerful government and country on the planet for plunder and to enslave 330 million people.

going the wrong way down the Walmart isle. LOL

Look out for the bad ass!! LMAO

I hate walmart. HATE it. But...we shop there for grocries since we have pile of kids. Weekly bill went from $280-300 up to $350-$380 in a quick time. We don't buy a lot of beef either. Almost none from there. I'll get my meat from a butcher thank you very much. But we eat 2-3 deer a year. So, we're not big on buying the over priced old walmart meat in a tube. Now, the store here closes at 6pm. In the next 2 years we'll have 3 kids graduate hs. No more walmart after that.
I live in a huge rural low population county , 7 per sq mile (land mass same as Hawaii), completely devastated by the loss of the timber industry. (thanks NAFTA and USMCA) We have one WM in the county seat, in spite of all the bad you hear, it was kind of a life saver for poor working class families trying to keep food on the table and clothes on the schoolkids. The other option was to drive to Medford OR or Klamath Falls, a loser if you figure the 150 or 200 mile round trip. Is Wal Mart good for us, well yeah, better than the local price gouging sons of bitches that everyone loves to call 'mom and pop stores'.
After all, when your jobs go away thru no fault of your own, it ain't illegal to be poor....yet.

There are two opposing varieties of free market capitalism. One is globalist and the other is nationalist. Those who oppose globalist notions of free market capitalism, and favor nationalist free market capitalism, tend to be critical of Walmart for undercutting American industry by stocking their shelves with cheap Chinese goods, which are cheap because of the slave labor used to make them. All while our national industry is hamstrung with over regulation in the face of competition from China which is basically operating with none of those restrictions, thus making it nearly impossible for American industry to compete. The solution that nationalist free market capitalism advocates desire is what made America an industrial super power to begin with, i.e., equalizing tariffs.

It conforms to the clientele, it’s self-learning, Walmart isn’t a store, is an organism.

Above link to a short segment at the beginning of the video about your point. It even goes beyond crony capitalism to the same model that made David Rockefeller billions by scheming with the communists the last part of the 21st century to buy Monopolies.
The corporate gt does not support free enterprises, but benefits the huge monstrosities buy stealing from the middle class. You know this Ethan, but those who go no further than fox in the hen house news think we are all playing the same game by the same rules.

There are two opposing varieties of free market capitalism. One is globalist and the other is nationalist. Those who oppose globalist notions of free market capitalism, and favor nationalist free market capitalism, tend to be critical of Walmart for undercutting American industry by stocking their shelves with cheap Chinese goods, which are cheap because of the slave labor used to make them. All while our national industry is hamstrung with over regulation in the face of competition from China which is basically operating with none of those restrictions, thus making it nearly impossible for American industry to compete. The solution that nationalist free market capitalism advocates desire is what made America an industrial super power to begin with, i.e., equalizing tariffs.


Thanks for the insightful writeup... but that doesnt have anything to do with his bitching about changing the store hours, the rise in beef prices (everywhere), nor walmarts choice to put guns away during the riots....

Such a smart man you are... you overlooked the whole freaking point lmao...

To be fair I also tend to complain about trolling phaggots such as yourself.

No flames, just another perspective.

I can't find the story right now, but the Walmart owners were in the top 10 who benefitted world wide from the first month economic shut down. While most of us were unemployed and many under house arrest with absolutely no due process, the owners made multiple$BILLION$ in one month alone.
Was it because of a FREE market?
I think house arrest euphemistically called Sheltering in Place give them a little advantage.
Closing small stores that had been started and run by a middle class couple, by executive Fiat, ie. Martial law dictatorship by fat wicked gov-ignors who say "You are Non-essential....close down, shut your pie holes and stay home or my soldiers will steal more of your $!
Most of the time it was said more tactfully than that, but the same results from the same dictates.


THINK about it.
He gets his tapioca via feeding tube.
I avoid Walmart as much as possible, sometimes I have to get oil there but that is it anymore. The corporate leadership of Walmart is full on retarded.
