That's the reason Wal-Mart is successful. People choose to pay less instead of getting better service and supporting their locally-owned businesses. Wal-Mart doesn't firebomb places to put them out of business - the customers do that by taking their business to Wal-Mart.

My thoughts exactly.

Oh, and I WAS going to Price Chopper tonight to get some stuff, but just for this I'm going to Wal-Mart. Oh, and I love how they pwned those people in Canada that wanted to unionize too.

Workers: "Hey Wal-Mart, your practices of paying us wages that are determined by the market are unfair. We just wanted you to know that we're going to pay extra money to a union so that we can demand that you pay us an exorbitant amount of money we don't deserve."

Wal-Mart: "Hmmm... we support your idea and wish you the best of luck. On an unrelated note, we're closing the store due to labor costs that are too high. You all have no jobs."

Workers: "OMGWTFBBQWEGOTPWNED!!!!!!"

YARBT (Yet Another Retail Bashing Thread). I don't know what some of you guys would do without WalMart, Best Buy or McDonalds to bitch about.

I'll pass on going to Walmart anymore. Ignoring how they treat their employees and vendors...Ignoring their rude business practices...

Just walk into a Walmart. So many of them are dirty and messy. The prices are nothing special. Most things sold at Walmart can be had for the same price or a few cents more elsewhere.

As for food; their produce is not so great, it often looks less than pleasant, their deli selection is pretty limited, don't get attached to any products as a number of products don't stay very long, their grocery prices are no better than Hannaford.

I have 0 incentive to shop at Walmart and judging by the rising number of people who feel the same way I'd say Walmart's growth is going to become more and more difficult as time goes on.

my g/f's mother works at Wal-Mart. She seems to like it and certainly isn't exploited. She's also a US citizen, in case you were wondering. :p

My only complaint with Wal-Mart is the trashy customer base. Way too many fat ladies in spandex shorts. :puke;

So I shop at Sam's Club. :)

If we don't do something about them growing bigger all the time, everyone will become slaves very soon. Sam Walton is related to Hitler, they are cousin. That's why they are so mean and oppressive. They would push a person on wheel chair off so they will die soon and not receive any benefits. They even allow people with learning disability to work for them while the intelligent onces are brushed off because are afraid of what they might say to the public.

hahaha, this has to be the stupidist thing I have ever, ever read.

And the saddest part is that you would probably be the first person complaining if they never hired a learning disabled person.

If it's the most successful...

They hate it.

And don't try reasoning with them. They'll make up bullsh!t and believe the most absurd myths to justify their irrational hatred.

Can I adopt you as my brother?

Sorry, man, not a good idea to give money to family members. Only bad things come out of it. But, you know what, you can earn it! Want to babysit this weekend? Please bro, I need a sitter bad.

Sounds like you're bitter that they wouldn't hire you. Of course given the nonsensical rambling you're predisposed to as well as the indicators of dimensia you display they probably had damn good reason.

I agree. Wallmart suxx. They belong on the list with M$, Intel, Sony and Nintendo. Screw them all.
