Completely refuse to go there. Haven't been inside a walmart in two years. People that work there are trash and those who shop there are much worse. People purposely dress below there norm to go there. 500 lbs people shooting around on electric carts and assholes stealing and breaking shit everywhere.

Yep, get oil for the bike and other vehicles and other simple things. Actually hate going to walmart. If I go its a 6am when no one is really around.

For grocery shopping my wife loves Kroger.

I shop there only when I have to or when it makes more sense to (already there near it, etc.) I don't like it mostly because of the large crowds and the inordinate amount of trashy, inbred, rednecks that shop there (at least at our local store - the one near my office isn't that bad). You can call me a snob, I really don't care.

For a while, we were actually purchasing most of our dry good groceries there, as it was much cheaper, when we were going through a money crunch. We've since returned to doing all of our grocery shopping at Publix and the local market/deli/butcher.

This can be said about people anywhere. Not just Walmart. Been to your local mall lately? How about the grocery on the corner thats closest? *shudder*

I go when I need something, I try to make a long list before going tho, but I hate shopping in general so it doesnt really matter where I go. As long as I get my stuff and can get out with a minimal amount of interference from other people, I dont care. I do like to do my shopping late at night tho, less crowded and fascinating scenery...

Riiiiight. Like you haven't been to the mall hundreds of times since you passed 18...and down here they attach useful stores like Petsmart and Office Depot, so if you want stuff from there, you gotta go to the mall.

Walmart is for fat, old, poor, non caucasian, and ugly people. I wouldn't shop at that place even if the shit was free.

Yes, that's riiiiiight. Why is this so hard to believe? Because you do it?

I can probably count on two hands how many times I've been inside of a mall the past 15-20 years. I'm not counting going into a department store located on an end, through it's external doors and getting what I need there and leaving. I'm talking about walking around the interior perimeter and going store to store.
