The avg size is 105,000 ft^2 so that’s about 500 people



Did not read the link in the OP but what I just read was that the average super center is around 195,000sqft which allows up to 910 customers.

I can not imagine almost 1,000 people in one store.

and people waiting in line outside since this started.

That's been the one I go to.

It's preferable to just wait in the line and then the store be pleasantly empty than go into the crowded shite shows the other ones have become.

I have not seen over 200 in an entire store the past few weeks although I don’t go at rush hour times.

To be honest I haven’t seen 500 people in a Walmart I think ever.

I rotate between Wal-Mart / Kroger. Haven't needed to add a third. Yet.

I hope Walmart is going to have cops on duty. This could get out of hand. You know people of Walmart and all.

The ol' Wal Marks was packed yesterday. No way I'm going to wait in line to shop at this place.

I don’t hate Walmart. I hate the people who “work” at Walmart.

That’s sufficient incentive for me to go to other stores.

Costco in NOLA has been doing this for going on nearly two weeks now. It's not that bad. Actually pretty awesome once you get in (which took about 10 mins last time I went earlier this week).

Yea, it's amazing how many people will give up their rights in the name of "safety". People of this country are fricking idiots. You need no further evidence than when this stuff started to go down, toilet paper was the first thing idiots went out and bought in bulk. Not food, vitamins, supplements, etc., fricking toilet paper.

But yea, Americans are fricking retarded. The majority of people right now are trusting politicians, OF ALL PEOPLE, to set guidelines and "protect them". It's led to politicians trying to outdo one another and it's gotten out of hand. San Diego just announced measures that if certain businesses have employees that don't wear masks, people can call the police and report and they'll be subject to a fine or up to 6 months in jail.

America, the land of the free!

So they will have 100 or more people standing close together outisde in a line waiting to get in. Sounds like a great plan



It reminds me about how they back everyone up into a thousand person mass of people all next to each other at a sporting event so that they can check you for a gun

Congrats you dumbfricks, you just made the softest target in the world.
