Nope.

quote:

(RNN) – Walmart shuttered Sam’s Club locations throughout the country Thursday.

There were reports of stores closing in more than 10 states, including Arizona, Illinois, Maryland, Alaska, Ohio, New York, Connecticut, Louisiana, Texas, Indiana, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee.

The company tweeted that the company reviewed their portfolio and closing clubs, which is what they call stores, to "better align our locations with our strategy. Closing clubs is never easy and we're committed to working with impacted members and associates through this transition."

It ain't going to be long now that's going to be a wasteland in Villa Del Rey's backyard. Really hope there's some kind of plan for development on those properties if not then just send in the demolition.

May as well turn it into the main CATS terminal.

They park all the goddamn busses there anyway.

You may, in fact, be the only person still going to Cortana.

Lol nah man I used to work north of Florida on Airline. The roads surrounding the Sams and Cortana is full of homeless and vagrants.
