They offer discounts, in part, by reducing theft. So you destroyed their property because you liked the discount but didn't like how they achieved it, and then somehow blame the store for it? Goodness...patience is a virtue bud He didn't destroy any of their property. He cut the package off the hanger. I'm so dumb - I could've been doing this all along and saving so much time!

I'm not a huge fan, but we recently started shopping there again after not going there much at all for years. They're just cheaper on almost everything. We were Tom Thumb shoppers for years, but I feel like shopping there is leaving $$$ on the table when Wal Mart is a mile away.The one in Frisco at FM 423 and Stonebrook is pretty new and it's not bad at all - especially if you go a little earlier. Different customer demographic probably helps too.

Dan, I am not talking about older people or disabled. I'm talking about the 400 pound ones with a cart full of bad choice food and snacks.

The rich on here don’t care about us people of Walmart. They can afford to pay 20-30% more for groceries that are identical so they don’t have to see us and our uncultured food choices. I say eat your your lobster and arugula and stay away from Walmart!

He would have not liked any comments about carts... or Wal Mart at all... I think his Blazer is still in a Wal Mart parking lot with a dead battery....

Different customer demographic probably helps too. Same here. It is hard to pass up the convenience and prices. I can grab stuff for the house, truck, and groceries all in one trip. After Wal Mart I head to Kroger and cherry pick their sales on meat and seafood. I notice no real difference in produce and fresh vegetables between them most of the time. Bakery is another story. Kroger just flat out blows them away but then HEB blows Kroger away.

The Walmart at Crosstimbers and I-45 has nearly everything under lock and key in glass cabinets. You have to get someone to unlock a cabinet if you want to buy underarm deodorant! If you get it, you have to go with the Walmart associate directly to a check out counter and pay for it. If you just happen to be buying numerous items that are under glass, you will be swiping your card over and over. (You might say it's a bad area!) That’s just north of Gunspoint Mall in Aldine isn’t it? Nope. Greenspoint is so bad they don't even get a Walmart.

I don’t go often but did the other morning when it was 20 degrees. All the regulars there were wearing TWO pairs of pajamas! And I was lucky enough to witness a miracle too! A woman was riding one of the electric carts and the battery went dead. She got up and WALKED!

The best part about "The WalMart" is, I fill my shopping cart, go to self-checkout, buy one, steal one, buy one, steal one. If I get busted I simply tell them, my employer did not provide me with the proper training and by the way, I have yet to get paid for my services rendered...

I dropped by our Corsicana store to look for a fillet board. Asked the sports dept. associate and he said, " What's a fillet board?" DUH!!!!!

If you don't like Walmart don't shop there. I do and like it, glad to have it in Gun Barrel saves me money and time. I also order a lot from them on line.
