    Our Walmart is okay. I never experience long lines and most of the people working there are quite friendly. The prices are usually better than the competitors in my town, and it is definitely a one stop shop!

    Since the closest Wal-Mart turned into a superstore, we do most of our grocery shopping there.

    I do not like Walmart either. Mainly this is because it is always so dirty and not well-maintained. I definitely prefer Taget anyday, even if I have to pay more, but I don't really think I do.

    I'm not a huge fan of Walmart.. but I still shop there. It's convenient being able to pick up groceries there too.

    I am not a fan of Walmart simply because of the way they run their business and treat their employees. I truly believe Sam Walton would be turning in his grave if he could see it. The documentary, Walmart: The High Cost of Low Prices, is a huge eye opener, as was a special by Frontline...very sad.

    They just remodeled our Walmart so it is a Super Center. I finally looks clean enough in there. It has more registers open now too. Will shop there more often now that they are cleaner and have grocerys. Target has been my favorite up until this point because it was always clean and bright in there.

    Our Walmart is being updated, but in the past was not as clean as some of the other stores. In addition, their selection is often slim. I thought Walmart had better prices, but since switching to Publix, I have actually saved on my grocery bill. I also think Walmart is raising their prices, but since people assume it is a Walmart price, they also think it must be a good one....surprise, surprise, it's not.

    i live in a pretty small town,but we do have 2 grocery stores, unfortunately thier prices are way higher than walmarts, which is a 20 mile ride each way,walmart the other way is about 30 each way.only shop in town for bread and milk pretty much.there are no double coupons here and only walmart takes internet coupons, another reason i shop there and since i am there doing my grocery shopping i pick up the household supplies i need, i have 3 cats and my daughter who moved back in also has 3 cats, so i buy a lot of kitty litter at walmart!!! and simpler to just grab the kids clothes , diapers , shoes and whatnot while there.also there is no other stores , like target , shopko, kohls, near us have to drive about a hour and a half to get to one, and i cant ride far distances so out of necessity we shop at walmart for everything

    Our walmart often stops carrying the things i buy on a regualr basis on a whim. It is very frustrating to go to the store for a specific product and find out they don't carry it at all anymore. I do like that they are starting to carry more organic and natural products but I would be much happier if they followed suit of Kroger and Tom Thumb and added more of these to their great value line!

    I love Wal-Mart. But the staff at my location is less than desirable.
