Just like anything, it all depends on where you are at. My wal-mart is relatively decent. The neighborhood market on Hooper isn't.

Went to the one in Mena, Arkansas a couple years ago. I’ve never seen anything so pristine and well organized like it ever.

You should hit up the Piggly Wiggly in my home town.

The Walmart in Broussard may be the nicest, cleanest Walmart I’ve been to in Louisiana.

The Walmart on Pinhook in Lafayette isn’t terrible, but the clientele is hit or miss.

I try to only go to Wal-Mart right by the office after carpool drop off at 7:30am. It’s pretty quiet at that time- not too many beggars or crazies. When it first opened 16 years ago, it was the best, most organized and well run Wal-Mart I had ever been in. Now it’s full of beggars in the parking lot and other folks I prefer not to shop with.

Unfortunately, much of the nation is making a slide toward shithole country status.

I’m not saying it’s good or bad but there is definitely a different class of people that go to the wal marks that doesn’t go to Publix or Whole Foods.

I go to Walmart mainly for dog food and usually pick up a few other items. Unfortunately, my Winn Dixie near me is converting into an Aldi. It’s where I usually shop for almost everything.

Go before about 10 AM and they are not bad at all. I have not found cheaper prices anywhere


Sometimes I will go to the one on Chef near Ponchartrain Park after dropping my son off at school and it’s not a bad place at all, at 815 in the morning anyway. Quiet and the employees are pretty friendly. Usually just a bunch of old ladies getting their shopping done

Love how OT wal marks trips are just like the MSBer’s remote getting possessed by Walt Disney and accidentally flipping to ESPN “for the first time in years.”

Yep. I have no issue shopping there. It's cheaper for most things

I have an associated grocery store which is more expensive across the board on everything between me and this wm which is still a mile and change away. I take the Wal-Mart every time

I go to a Walmart by me (SOFLO)and it's not bad at all. I used to go to I think it was I-10 outside of 610-(Houston)-- new and loaded with white MILFs. Others in Houston are like being in El Salvador..... but it was nice being the tallest person there.

Exactly.

I live in a town in Oklahoma where Walmart is the only real choice for groceries and other stuff.

Time of day matters. Whenever I need to go, I go early in the morning. No crowds. Shelves are all fully stocked. Bathrooms are clean.

Get in, get out.
