Wal-mart is always a madhouse here. I went tonight and I know it's the holidays but geez. Evrytime I go it's so crowded and the store layout stinks.There's no room for you to wheel a cart through. I'm thinking I don't care for it much. Do you like going to Wal-marts?

I've to walmart last year when I visited Canada, I love it there. And if not limited by time, I could stay whole day there looking for something that I could not find in my country. Sadly, there are no walmart in country but we have superstore here. BR.b

I guess if you had never been to one or didn't have one available it would be nice. When I first went to one I thought it was great and would browse around.After a while and alot of people and clutter I lost interest. Thanks for sharing.

I like going to Walmarts because the of the savings , I dont like the understaffing and the wait to get checked out . I wont go in there on the weekends. I prefer to go at the less crowded times. I wish they trained their employees better and treated them better and hired more of them.

The savings is what keeps me going back when I have to. I agree with the understaffing. I would like it to be a little more spread out too. I want to drive my cart comfortably in the aisles. Thanks for the response.

Hi annjilena You can get really good deals there. The Walmart here is packed all year round. Right now it is a madhouse! Your right about there not being as many shoppers this year. I can't tell it from going there last night though. Thanks.

Me too j47lee..I don't mind the crowds as much as not being able to manuver around them lol. The lines don't bother me either but I always get in the one where the cashier wants to talk about everything the person in front of you bought.lol Thanks

Wal-mart is okay. Where I'm from there is not a lot of other places to go, unless you want to drive. So I've made myself get use to it. Of course it is always crowded no matter when you go and especially now because of the holiday! But I guess you do what you have to do. And even though I'm not a big fan I can do almost all my shopping there for groceries, clothes, household things, and get my meds...so sometimes it can't be all bad.

It's not all bad. I like the fact you can get everything all at once there too. There's not alot of places here either. Thanks for responding.

We have a super Walmart near us and I don't like going on the weekends during the day because it's too crowded but I don't mind going at night...especially late at night now that I'm not working. I like that I can shop for clothes and household stuff and then buy groceries all in one stop. When I was working it was very convenient since I could grab anything that I needed on the way home from work without making more than one stop.

I guess it wouldn't be bad at night.The one here is 24/7 too.When I worked third shift I did stop by there and it wasn't crowded ar all. It was just the stockers were blocking the aisles and I couldn't get around any better than before.lol Thanks for the response.

Man, i hate wally world. I am claustrophobic, and i tend to get very very grouchy and impatient in there. One time, it was so crowded i literally had people surrounding me in a total 360, i ran out of the store in tears. I felt like i couldn't breathe.

Wal Mart seems to be the hot spot in my area. You can find all of the pretty girls and all of the uh, not so pretty girls there. Everyone from the wood works seems to come out to my wal mart. As far as your question, I love wal mart. It's fun to mess with the employees and what not.

I don't mind going to Wal-mart. I was also there today and did not feel that the store was too crowded. I didn't have long lines at the checkout either. I think this can vary depending on the time of day, but atleast today was not bad. I also don't mind the layout of the wal-mart in my area. I find it to be fairly logical. I have been in other wal-marts with horrible layouts, so I understand your pain lol.

The Walmart I have close is horribly laid out.If I had room to move the cart it would be a plus.I'm glad you can enjoy it. Thanks
