I have two in my area, one just built and opened in June and the other just expanded to a super Walmart. I don't have any problems with cleanleness but, do have a problem with how they manage. I had a relative working there for almost 2 years parttime and they fired them for some bogus reason. They said they wrote off over 25K in electronics. Wouldn't you think only an area supervisor or manager could do this??After that I have found out that 2 other people were fired, all of them having over two years with the store. I believe they are getting rid of the people with longer time so they don't have to give them a raise or increase any of their benefits. That is wrong!!

Ours is not bad in appearance, it actually is taken care of pretty well - looks wise. employees are rude, the carts are AWFUL (going to Publix, it's always a nice reminder of what non-squeaky wheels sounds like) but the other customers at walmart are what bother me the most. they say you get what you pay for... for the cheap walmart prices you deal with all of the people of walmart...

the closest walmart, i'm not a fan of. it's an original one
that was remodeled, so it has some groceries, but it's always
very messy and it seems like they aren't the quickest to
stock things.

i'll usually drive 20 minutes to the next one, which has full
groceries and is well maintained. we have super kmart here,
which is somewhat of an alternative to the bad walmart,
but their prices are a little stupid... so i only go to check
out their seasonal goods.
[ we all have a place in history. mine is in the clouds. ]

Mine sorta is, but I always figured that was because I'm in the middle of no where in Michigan.  If I was near New York or someplace in California, I think they would be better but perhaps I'm completely wrong.  Half the time I go there will be maybe 3/4 to half the original stock on the shelves.  I don't expected 100%, but it bugs me when I went to look at their selection of vegetables to make dinner and I only had 10 peppers to choose from.

Yea, U love there low prices, but do U love the american small business it wipes out, do you love there environmental practices, do you love
how women advance at 83 percent slower than men, do you love the rise in crime rates in there enormous parking lots, or do you love how

they never buy American. How about the wonderful jobs they provide the community with 15 cents an hour over min wage being 60 percent of
there workforce.

There is a reason you can buy a pair of jeans for 9 dollars.

One complaint I can not have about our Walmart is about it being yucky, it is very clean, and organized.   However, with that being said, a complaint I do have is CUSTOMER SERVICE, and that is not just with our local Walmart, we travel quite a bit and that is an issue I have found in serveral walmarts, infact couple times I have went to the manager on duty or even their main website.  Good thing I always got some kind of a response back concerning what ever issue it was about.

I also thing their selection has been changing over the past year or so, not near as much choices as there used to be.

I was told that a Walmart will come in my neighborhood soon.    We need the jobs.

I haven't been to a Wal-Mart in probably over a year.  It takes too long to get the few things I need.  The ones I have seen were clean, but some of the shoppers looked "interesting."

Okay, when I say yucky I mean like the workers are yucky and a lot of people that shop there seem to be yucky.

The one near me is good and clean, but it is also relatively new....the one 20 min. down the road is definitely like we just went into dirtyville!

Walmart in my area are always clean and they interrupt my shopping to keep it clean. However, I have visited others on the other side of town and even seen bugs in the loaf of bread......so for those I kindly leave and stay on my side. but tempted to call the Benton Arkansas corporate office to report that one.

no not really, but I do believe some of the prices are not as low as they claim them to be, especially the so called clearance isle, nothing is really on clearance there, they just trying to sell it faster.
