Who loves Wal-Mart?

Question

I do.

The cookies are cheap. And yummy.

I live in England so our local store is full of hooligans with baggy trousers and ill-fitting clothes.


Oh my! I've gotta tell you this!! I saw this woman in Wal Mart last night, she looked minging! Sorry to be mean, but she gave me this evil stare, and I'm left thinking ''what a meanie''!!!


She had greasy purple hair plastered to her head. Not a good look!

Ps- i generally like americans.

Answer 1

screw the cookies! everything there is cheap!

Answer 2

While others may have a grudge against Wal Mart because they are successful, I am so grateful that our little town has a Wal Mart.

No other stores have come to our community. Wal Mart invested in our community and has made life easier and affordable.

People that work there are always happy, not sad, like they are portrayed. Wal Mart also hires the elderly when most other places will not.

Wal Mart is economical and efficient. Other stores, because of infringing labor unions, cannot hold a candle to Walmart.

Hey try their German Chocolate Cake and Carrot Cake too, Yum Yum.

Answer 3

A lot of Americans have stupidly convinced themselves that it is bad to be offered a wide variety of products at low prices with convenient shopping hours. Or that it's bad when wealthy corporations are squeezed of profits in order to directly benefit consumers. These people hate Wal Mart, but even they massively benefit from the productivity Wal Mart has created.

I'm from a small Southern town, and I concur that Wal-Mart has been a brilliant boon to small towns. Wal-Mart was so vastly superior to the crappy retail stores that had been in small towns -- which had low selection, high prices, closed at 5 pm so it was very difficult to shop at all if you had a job, located in cramped downtown areas with no parking that had evolved in days of far lower population. Consumers abandoned these places and drove them out of business once they had a decent alternative. (Again, somehow this is considered "bad".)

Now though, ironically the pattern is that a Wal-Mart supercenter is the anchor store in a new shopping complex with loads of new stores. In my hometown the new Wal-Mart location has created more retail stores (and retail jobs) surrounding it than previously existed in the entire history of the town.

Wal-Mart is especially of tremendous benefit to low income families. If you actually go to a Wal-Mart (which its critics would not do) you can see that its clientele includes the full range of ethnic minorities and blue collar workers, whereas many places beloved by Wal-Mart critics -- such as Whole Foods for example -- are pretty much "Whites Only" establishments (just without the signs).

Answer 4

Well, as a Yank...

I try to avoid Wal-Mart. They use sneaky tricks to pay their employees as little as possible.

They also buy, almost exclusively from China (5 cents an hour as an average wage) to keep the prices low. They hire illegal workers whenever they can to keep prices low.

They do keep prices low though, I will give them that.

By the way, to the answer above, friendly fire happens in every war. Best check the "accidents" that happened in the Falklands before you cast aspersions. Humans make mistakes, especially when their own bum is on the line.
In a war, people get killed. That is why we should avoid war whenever there is any other alternative.

Answer 5

I love Wal-Mart. I do all my Christmas shopping there. My town is the only city in my region of BC Canada that doesn't have one. The store wants to come here, but they came up with every reason to keep them out. You can't locate here, you can't locate there - they never told them instead WHERE they could locate. SO, once again I did all my Christmas shopping in the Wal-Mart and other stores nearby ALL in the next town.

This year I am moving to a new city. And they have a Wal-Mart.

Answer 6

I don't like Wal-mart because of how they are effecting the American ecomony. I'm not saying that I don't periodically shop there but I do tend to avoid it at all cost. Yes their cookies are cheap but those cheap cookies probably put a company out of business.

Answer 7

I like the store, just not the people there.

Answer 8

Answer 9
