I think I scored anything worth a crap maybe once or twice in wal mart. In retrospect it was just stuff I was unaware of so I probably couldve scored it anywhere. Snow Troopers and a Endor Luke.
Target on the other hand is like church to me. I almost always find some cool toy unless distrubution is just way down in general. With the exception of Jabba The Hutt, waaaaaaaaaaay better exclusives! Always much cleaner, the grocery section has pretty much eliminated me going to a super market. Much better holiday and seasonal dept and no shortage of milfs. I can't comment about the hunting dept because I could give a rat's ass but when I've needed some light hardware I never had a problem with Target. Oh and their almond butter is like nutty crack. |

I shop at Wal Mart at 2AM......I find the best toys and the best deals that way. You run into the occasional drunk and shoplifter, but whatever.
Wal Mart has Peanut Butter Simply Cookies, Pocky, Cheap Blurays, and GI Joes. That's really all I ask for.

If it tasted any better I'd smear it on my face and wear it to work. Wherever this Archer Farms place is I want to live there. I dream of harvesting jars of almond butter in clean farm air....opening bags of potatoe chips, taking a handful and leaving the open bag on the shelf.....that is my dream. |

Archer farms has some snacks I like...Sunny Cranberry trail mix, they also have some great crackers and organic tortilla chips. They also make a mean buffalo blue cheese mac and cheese. Then there's also the mushroom risotto and 4 cheese Florentine.

Everyplace is like that, even the mom and pops to a degree. Everyone in business is in it to make money, plain and simple. With that said, I hate Wal-Mart because they have shitty products, politics and business practices. Since they came to Maine in the early '90s, Ive probably been in one no more than 20 times, and only 3 or 4 times in the last 10 years.

I shop local when I can, and when it makes sense. I hit a local deli/butcher shop for meats and cheeses often. there are local book stores I frequent.
Now I shop a lot at Amazon for music, books and video. I shop at Wal Mart and Target. All the local clothes stores are gone so i do the thrift thing, and where I find clearance stuff, or good sales. All companies are into profits-- local or otherwise. I find level of service, pleasantness and so forth have more to do with the area and the locals more than store policies or whatever.

Wal-Mart, support our sweat shops! Before any of you say it, I know our beloved Joes are made in sweat shops too! That's all they do in China and India, child labor and all. (I'm being broad by the way with my statement)
Listen, Wal-Mart doesn't suck, the majority of the customers do!! LOL If we got rid of WM, they'd all stink up Target and I don't want that!!! |

Of course I do shop there sometimes, but I avoid Walmart whenever I can. I'd rather give my money to someone else.
Any time I go there I'm immediately reminded of why I hate that place. Last night actually, I decided to stop in and check out the Transformers. Then I decided to be lazy and just get the cheese and hamburger buns I needed right there. So I get the stuff and walk to the front of the store. They only had about four lines open, and each line of people was about 30-40 feet long. I tossed my stuff onto a display and walked out. |
