RevJim 0 #1 September 6, 2004 Nice place to shop. I admit, I'm a cheapskate, but with a huge family and looming school bills, I need to be thrifty. I also needed a new laptop for school. Enter WalMart. Bash it all you want, but when I can walk in the store just down the street and walk out with this: Clicky I say, thank you Sam! Athlon XP-M 2800+ DVD+/-RW Wireless G + 10/100 Lan 512 Mb RAM 40 gig Hard disk 15" screen XP Home Ok, I would have preferred XP Pro and a Firewire port but damn, this thing was under a grand before tax!

Kris 0 #4 September 6, 2004 Try being in the same car with Zeemax when a WalMart is sighted. I though he was going to claw his way through the sheetmetal to get out and into the store. We had to hit Macca with a tranquilizer dart in order to get him to dinner without destroying my car.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
towerrat 0 #5 September 6, 2004 I love wal-mart, but most of the employees at my local store have major attitude problems. I have had run-ins there on three seperate occasions, one requiring police assistance. The parking lot guard decided that he didn't like the fact that my kids (14 and 11) wanted to stay in the car while I grabbed dinner. I came out and he started screaming at me, and then bashed me with a shopping cart. After I called the cops, they sent him home for the evening (isn't that leaving the scene of a crime?) and then Wal-mart conveniently lost the tape. I'll bet if I had robbed the place they'd have that damn tape. The man still works there.Play stupid games, win stupid prizes! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlyingJ 0 #10 September 6, 2004 I went diving with a friend from France down in the Florida Springs. In the same day he had his first Wal-Mart and first Applebees/Chili's/TGI (don't remember which) experience. He was so excited about the self checkout that he wanted to go back later that night just to use it again. Personally, I am a point-of-purchase marketer's wet dream. I did pretty well living in NY for the last few years where there were no convienent Wally World's or Targets, but damn if I'm not making up for lost time now.Killing threads since 2004.
