Here, in our area, Boca Raton/Delray Beach, Florida, we have three Wal-Marts one being a super store. They are clean, well lit, name merchandise, helpful personnel. Parking lots spotlessly clean, patrolled with surveillance cameras in the parking lots. Those med prescriptions I do not have filled overseas are filled in their pharmacy. Much less expensive than any other pharmacy Sunny, A friend of mine who lives not far from you has said the same thing about Wal-Mart. She loves the store and does a lot of shopping there. The Wal-Marts I have been in here in New Jersey, are so bad and disgusting that I don't go there much. When I do have to go there, I feel like screaming "get me out of here". I avoid Mal-Mart if it is at all possible. sue |

I didn't care for the ones I had been into in NJ... I've been in a couple
here (NV) and some are better than others. This is an "upscale community" and the Super Wal-Mart is ALWAYS busy. OTOH, I don't think I've ever been in a K-Mart that I liked, and they're still in business (even if barely so!)! All three of the big "mart" stores (Target being the third) are relatively close to me, and there are times that I've gone to each, but K-Mart is the nearest and the one that I'm least likely to go to.

Just a thought. When we lived on Long Island, depending location of
stores. we found great discrepancies re same stores but different locations. Could this be what is happening with Wal-Mart and other brand name stores.? Location? Charles, what you encountered has not been seen by me in our Wal-Marts. One return desk, quite a few personnel there.waiting on customers. Every employee I have encountered and inquired as to where can I find this or that has given explicit instructions where it is located or walked us to the area. SUNNY S'nd I XXX (* _ *) |

The customers here wouldn't stand for a filthy store. Even Goodwill is clean and not smelling of diapers. I suppose it goes with what part of the country the store is located in. People in some places are more tolerant than others. I see nothing wrong with Wal Mart except for the pushy attitudes when they want to build a new store someplace where it's not welcome. They definitely give other stores a run for competition. I usually run in and run out since I don't shop a hell of a lot except in computer stores. |
