Okay,I guess I should say that I don’t hate the company itself,but I do hate my LOCAL Wal-Mart. For the past few years,this store has been my go to place for groceries,clothers,and yarn. Now I can’t find a fucking thing! They’ve been remodeling the store for the past 2 months,and every day,they move things around again! Not even the people that work there know where shit is.
The yarn department is the real killer for me,being the addict that I am. They went from having a 35 foot section of yarn to only a 15 foot section. And then that only covers the basic colors of Red Heart. They do have 5 colors of Bernat baby Softee,but I don’t use that yarn at all. Now let’s move over to the clothing department.
Never mind…I can’t find it!
The music and movies have been moved to the back wall and have been seriously depleted. They’ve basically eliminated they’re selection of bargain DVD’s,which I regularly hit. Now they only carry new releases. The music is not much better,and mostly either rap shit or stuff in Spanish,which I don’t understand. Over t groceries.
I’m a strict vegetarian. I don’t find any pleasure or health in sticking a dead animal in my mouth. My local Wal-Mart is the place for me to find a wide variety of vegetarian foods. Well,they were. Now they carry only two kinds of veggie burgers. I asked a stocker what happened to the veggie selection and was told that they still carried produce. I was too tired and frustrated to inform this putz that being a vegetarian means a lot more than just eating salads!
I finally made to the register. After being there for close to an hour,trying to find some items that no one could help me with,I ended up buying a book,a can of spaghetti-o’s,and a box of Pockys. I asked the cashier,who was very understanding,when all the crap would be done. I was informed that it would be at least two more months. Meanwhile,I will be shopping elsewhere.

I had the same frustration when they remodeled the Wal-Mart on Harbison. Couldn’t find anything – what a mess!! It’s been done over a year now and I still don’t know where to find stuff. A lot of it makes no sense at all. I have noticed when they build the new Wal-Marts they are really downsizing their craft department having not much of any yarn at all. No fabrics, just a half of one side of an isle for crafts. What a bummer!!
