Fucking Walmart! Don't let them in if there's still time, I had no idea that there was any place that was without Walmart.

Wal-mart is evil!

DarlingSavage -> RE: Walmart hits Chicago (6/26/2010 10:29:11 AM)
They most certainly are!

Walmart is just a business. You either patron it, or you don't.

It isn't just a business, it's a blight on humanity.

And yet, in the monthly-ish runs for toilet paper, paper towels, cat litter,dog/cat/fish food, cleaning supplies, hygiene items, light bulbs and charcoal, you'll easily save $50 on a cartload. That's not counting the gas you'll save (think green!) by getting it all in one stop. Go after dark and you'll probably get some free entertainment, too.

Good news Domi - cheap mandals

The store has some use. Not a cure all. I really dont care for crowds. I seldom shop there as we have other budget stores here.

They also carry durable and very reasonably priced boots and work clothes.

And apparently you can even buy a baby at Wal-Mart.....sorry folks, couldn't resist.

Walmart is trucker friendly, and sells cheap ammunition. They're alright in my book.

Chitown67 -> RE: Walmart hits Chicago (6/26/2010 3:23:12 PM)
Screw Wal-Mart they suck always have always will. There is still time until june 30th when this goes before the city council. I personally plan to send the chicago city council information that will show that walmart is a shoddy company,and that they are no good,and that all they do is break state and federal laws. There are huge lawsuits by employees,and former employees against walmart as we speak. Does the Chicago City Council not see this. They must be stupid literally,and otherwise. Chitown67. And thats the way it is.

playfulotter -> RE: Walmart hits Chicago (6/26/2010 3:25:56 PM)
I despise Walmarts but like Costcos and will drive about 10 miles to go to one....The small city I live in has no room for any of these big stores (which I like and don't like and am on the fence about) The city council even turned down a Target store downtown a few years ago because of the extra traffic it would bring......Whew!

Chitown67 -> RE: Walmart hits Chicago (6/26/2010 3:35:31 PM)
Wal-Mart sucks they always have,and they always will. There is still time to stop this piece of crap company. this still has to go before the city council on the 30th. I'm personally going to send information to the city council that shows that walmart is the worst company in the world. They continue to break both state,and federal laws,and there are huge lawsuits by both employees,and former employees againt walmart,and their illegal tactics that they use against employees and others. Walmart is not friendly to anyone,and if you think that something must be wrong with you mentally. Chitown67. And thats the way it is.

Between how they treat their employees and things like forcing Rubbemaid out of business I will not shop there. I live alone so my savings would negligible anyway. If it costs me 50.00 or 100.00 a year I am good with that.

pahunkboy -> RE: Walmart hits Chicago (6/26/2010 3:39:42 PM)
