It takes FOREVER (longer than the estimated 7-10 days). It's my fault entirely, but I was curious, so I tried.

Next time, if there is one, I'm having it shipped to my door.

I thought wal-mart prided themselves on efficiency.

Wal-Mart doesn't pride itself on anything but the bottom line.

You haven't heard? They're hiring Mexicans to walk the products to you.

Shipping is just as bad. Had some sheets sent two weeks in advance, so they'd be there when I flew in for an internship. Weren't there, arrived two weeks later after I'd already bought some from ross.

Then the fuckers refused to refund my shipping when I returned them.

I haven't spent a dollar at wal-mart in about 5 years.

I'm not even one of those people who is philosophically opposed to Wal-mart. It's just a shitty experience to have to put up with shopping there.

i absolutely hate going into a walmart. it is always packed with the lowest common denominator, and the place is always a horrible mess.

good luck finding someone to help you if you need it.

and then you wait 20 minutes standing in line half the time to buy your shitty products.

Yeah, that "sounds" genius except that they claimed to have shipped it a week after I ordered, and you can't cancel something that's already shipped. They will change it to shipped status just so you can't cancel it.

i always go late at night. i've never had a problem finding someone to help me. the lines are always horrendously long, b/c day or night, there are only 2 lanes open. i've left my items at the end caps and walked out a few times before.

I ordered 2 things site-to-store on Black Friday at the sale price, we had an email about it being there in 7 days. And even if the store has the product in stock, they will still send it site-to-store. I didn't feel like going through the ordeal of cancelling my $250 order online because the product was still in the store, so I just let them do the site-to-store. (I wanted to know how efficient it was also.) I was pleased.

it is just 97 cents shipping to your house...DAMN!

i have bought 2 things online and had them both shipped to my house. One i returned to the store a got a refund, no problems.

I miss Super Wally Worlds, here in VA they dont have them, that is where I always bought my food, one stop shopping and they are cheaper then regular grocery stores for the most part and you can get bigger quanities

^ I know its not the same as buying it in person, but they have a few websites that tell you what stores have them in stock online:
If it helps- http://www.outtastock.com/wii/

Also, I heard on the radio that wal-mart was having a lot of them in their stores this weekend too....
