This would actually be a Wal-Mart location that deserves to stay off the Wal-Mart bashing websites if it werent for these things: 1.) There are NEVER enough cashiers or open registers on their busiest days and lines spill back into shopping areas, blocking shopper traffic and aggravating all the hurried and exhausted people trying to walk through with carts and children. 2.) I dont think Ive ever seen even an express lane cashier spend less than five minutes with each customer, whether they have one item or ten. Theyre all SOOO sloooooow. 3.) It. Is. IMPOSSIBLE to walk the track anywhere near the electronics department without being harassed by a Comcast representative. Regular shoppers know this, so, people have been avoiding that area like the plague, and as a result, the Comcast rep has expanded his territory - if youre shopping in the back half of the store, he will hunt you down and refuse to take no for an answer. If he catches you, the first thing he asks is who currently provides your cable service. Unless youre bored, lonely, or genuinely interested, just say Comcast, keep walking, and act like youre looking for a runaway kid. Its the only way youll escape alive. 4.) If youre unable to get through an aisle because an employee has rudely and improperly placed the huge rolling cart on which theyve stacked far too many wobbly boxes, simply abandon your mission for said item. You can ask them to move so you can get through, but theyll pretend they dont hear or understand what youre saying. And unless you plan to be there all night, there is no circling back to that aisle for your item. Theyll still be there. Just go to Target instead. 5.) Their price point strategies have become ridiculous; but Im sure this is a corporate effort. Why is a 12-case of Coke cans cheaper than an 8-pack of mini bottles on a plastic ring? I mean, sure, thats great for me, but when I need a halfway decent new floor lamp, its 75 bucks for a couple pieces of shoddy plastic attached to a bent metal frame thats made in China and guaranteed to begin smoldering in the socket the day after the return policy expires. So yeah, get that stuff somewhere else. 6.) Their parking lot is YUGE. Like, so YUGE that on busy days, if you havent consumed a cup of coffee, slammed a Red Bull, and come prepared with a jug of water and a sweat band, the doors will be locked and the weirdos will be lurking before you make it in to do any shopping. Just do yourself a YUGE favor and never go during the weekend, or you may wind up jaded and tinkering on Google at 5am writing a review like this one. Aside from all that, though.... I mean.... I do like their...well, no, wait a minute... Their prices on - wait, no, thats not right, either. You know what? I just realized something. Wal-Mart sucks.

I am showing some mercy giving this Walmart two stars. I usually dont post many reviews, because I dont feel the need too, unless it is going to help someone else. That being said, I can testify to being discriminated at this Walmart. I know that you cannot judge a Walmart with dozens of employees by one employees bigotry, but I might as well share my story. Although I have received decent customer service at this Walmart, the atmosphere in general, seems very depressing and the employees do not look happy in any way. A few months ago, my Dad and I went to Walmart to buy some groceries. As I went to pay, a caucasian young male, who was on register, who looked about 16 years old, was giving me attitude already. He was very condensing and I was actually being pleasant with him, asking how his day was going. He then proceeded to throw my change in my bag, and told me, "There are your pesos." I usually dont get offended, so I told him, "Its going to get better man." with a smile on my face. The only reason why he would say something that absurd and random is because I assumed he was probably hurt a lot by customers and/or a hispanic individual, making him bitter, but I was still appalled. I am half hispanic and half eastern european. Make sure you are choosing your employees right Walmart. Because if it were someone else, I dont know how they would of reacted.

So i was at Walmart in the electronic center, i was buying a new television&this was my first time going to this Walmart. I arrived there, and went to the electronic center right away and saw the television i was going to buy. However, there were none that i could take from the shelf so i needed assistance. I stood there for 5 minutes for a worker to realize i needed assistance. No one came, so i went and got there attention, they said they would be right with me and they never came. So then I ended up finding the television i wanted in a different section. I carried the box to check out, to my surprise no one was working at the cash register. I was shocked that no one would be there on such a busy day. After waiting for about 20 minutes max, an employee finally came up and told me he wouldnt be able to assist me after he told me he would be. He told me to go to the cash registers in the front. I went there and finally checked out. I had a complaint about this so i talked to the worker upfront and all she said was she was sorry. Like come on for real? i spent about 1 hour and 22 minutes there for that whole process and all i bought was that television, plus extra long lasting flavor gum(which only would take 1 minute.) I know i wont be going there again.

Needed a cast iron pan, online said it was at the store, asked 2 employees if they could help me one of them said its in home goods while walking away from me and the other said the same thing after I checked and it not being there, told them its not there she said well were remodeling so its a mess and itll be hard to find... Not my problem, went online and ordered for store pickup, now go find it. Employees really seem to hate it there, if thats the case, quit. Update to my review, I ordered the pickup at 5pm, the store says orders for pickup after 6:30pm will be available tomorrow, OK so I should be able to get it today great! I walked around for 10 minutes to see if I could find it myself, I checked the email to just check whats going on, says its processing. OK thats fine, I go-to jewel to pickup some other things to use with my new pan tonight, I spend another 45 minutes there, and check the status again, around 6:15 this time it says pickup will be tomorrow... Guess remodeling during store hours is not a smart move Wal-Mart, checked online at target to see if they had it, in stock 4 of them, walked in 5 minutes later I was on my way home with it and it was cheaper with my red card.

The worst experience in my life. I ordered a bookshelf online for the first time. I got an email saying the bookshelf already shipped to the store. Figured it was already there I went to the store to pick it up. I went to Pick Up section and this woman manager who looks like a dude was talking to other employees and let me stand there without even saying "Hi Ill be right with you in a minute or something..". And when she was done talking she looked at me and said "Whats up?". And she supposed to be a "manager"?. I wasnt there to make friends and I was already furious with her stupid attitude. I told her I need to pick up my order and I asked her what does she need for me to pick up my stuff...she scoffed and talked to me like I was an idiot..saying "I need your ID and your order number". She said its not available. Instead of telling me how the process of store pick up she just showed me what the computer shows her. I can do her job any day any time if that was so easy. She gave me 800 number for me to call instead of trying to figure out what was going on. She doesnt deserve the title. Especially with that attitude shes not going anywhere. Never again dealing with this stupid store.
