And yes, F wal mart. However, in my area it is significantly cheaper than any other grocery store. The amount of groceries I got for $75 bucks would have cost me well over $100 anywhere else, and being a "poor" college student, that twenty buck spot adds up over time.

It is super inconvenient to go there though, takes twice as long to shop.
i'd spend that extra $25 any day.

walmart is the worst store ever, i've been there maybe twice in the past two years and don't plan on going back.

i only get my groceries at one store, wegmans. probably costs a little more than other stores, but it's worth it.

Every morning I stop at a 7-11 which is a block away from my house for drink and smokes or etc. When I pull up you can clearly see the worker at the register. I walk in and go get a drink and by the time I get to the register (about 10 seconds) the worker is now away from the register. He will sit there a good two minutes reading various clipboards and shit before he rings my shit up. Annoying as fuck.

When I lived in Superior (halfway between Denver and Boulder) there was a really nice Wal-Mart in the Flatirons mall area. It was clean, had really nice produce, was never too busy, and the customers were several steps above the quality at your average Wally. I loved shopping there, as I would save a good 30% over the Safeway next door and could get everything I needed at the same time. But every other Wal-Mart I've tried to grocery shop at has been a pain in the ass. Crazy long lines, poor food selection, and customers that make me want to punch them.

I would go to a different cashier, sounds like their CC machine was busted.


:edit: and the last time I went to walmart for a jug of oil, I was in the express lane and spent 5 minutes behind a guy trying to buy a pack of twizzlers with a gift card.

When I open a door for someone, especially when their hands are full, and they dont acknowledge me in the least.

Or last week, I pass this little old lady in a motorized wheelchair in 7-11 as Im grabbing (2) 40's. As I head to the register with them in hand, she's literally at the front door trying to push the doors open to leave MEANWHILE FOUR GUYS STAND IN LINE LOOKING AT HER. I fucking flip out and go hold the door, with the 40s as my hands and she thanks me with a cute smile and says Im a sweet young man. The next thing you hear is the goddamn clerk telling me to not leave without paying for the alcohol...thats when I exploded. I told him "Shut the fuck up - if anyone would have opened the goddamn door for a handicapped elderly lady, I wouldnt have to be standing outside with these drinks in my hands" then lowbrow every single mother fucker in line. Trust me, the clerk was VERY uncomfortable ringing me up. I wouldnt break the fucking murder stare at him the entire time. Rudest thing I've seen in awhile.
