As many problems as Wal-Mart has, it will always be better than K-Mart... K-mart = Wal-mart without any decent shit in the store. 1/28/2008 10:42:47 PM

There's always at least one 10-year-old with no sleeves and a mullet/rattail in Wal-Mart.

FWIW, the camera I was looking for was $46 cheaper at Target than at Wal-Mart.
Not to mention the cost of the portion of my soul that would have been lost had I spent money at Wal-Mart. 1/28/2008 10:53:50 PM

because they (people who hate on Wal-Mart) generally care about issues or aesthetics outside of the realm of "what's cheapest"

The last time I went to Wal-Mart was because I got a gift card for Christmas.
All in all, it took me 45 minutes after presenting my item and the gift card before I was successfully rung up. But who expects the staff to know how to ring that sort of thing up three days after Christmas? 1/28/2008 10:57:44 PM

I agree with dnl that I've never understood the hate for Wal-Mart...
Target is better, they have higher quality goods with more in stock, but there is nothing inherently bad about Wal-Mart... all of you seeing it filled with rednecks must be living in some kind of backwater shit-hole. Most of the suburban/urban Wal-Marts I've seen were filled with normal, middle-income-looking people. Maybe one or two people who look like they live in either a ghetto or a trailer, but for the most part normal people.
Besides that, why judge a store on the people in it? Decent goods at a low price should not be criticized just because idiots enjoy the goods as well.

shoddy imports, horrible overseas labor laws
None of these things matter if it's the cheapest item!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There was a really great article in Playboy (yes) a few years back about Wal-Mart being a pretty shitty institution.

I have yet to buy something bad from Wal-Mart that looked like a reliable product (obviously if you buy the cheapest, shittiest brand, it'll be bad, but Wal-Mart also includes stuff from reliable brands that is still well-priced).
Edit: DISCLAIMER: All I buy from Wal-Mart are video games and ~$20 watches.
Overseas labor laws? Since when did Wal-Mart manufacture anything?

Again, if you're seeing this you must have grown up in a backwater shithole.... either that, or my entire life I've gone to Wal-Marts with unusually high standards. 1/28/2008 11:03:38 PM
