Nope, but when I want inferior products, I surely know where to go.
so campbell's soup is a different campbells soup at walmart? How about gurbers baby food and pampers? Tide detergent and Dawn dishwashing liquid?
the list is endless... National brands are national brand products. The dont come from china either.

So much for defending small business. So it is just a republican talking point.Wow. Wal mart is the number one killer of small business in America no matter what anyone says. There is no way local small businsess can compete with Wal Marts low prices. We got Wal Mart and within a year main street was 50% vacant. Chineese products killing American small business in the womb. Yet they want us to think it's Obama care. They say that small business needs all the breaks they can get, and the way that the US government backs big business over small business I can agree. Large business, with their bought and paid for politicians, kill off their competition through over regulation every day. Talk about saving American small business than go shop at Wal Mart, it just doesn't sound right. Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, our choices our being taken away. No monopolies but how many cable tv options do you have? ever tried to change electric companies?
Do I shop at Wal Mart? yes.
Do I like it? no.
Do I have an economical alternative? no.
When the oportunity arises to shop else where do I take it? absolutely.
Of course small business can compete with a big box store. The small mom and pop junkshop sells exactly the same crap Wal Mart sells, they just charge double the price. That's why they go out of business. The answer isn't to deny the consumer the opportunity to pay a more fair price. Wal Mart like all major stores is an anchor. A dozen or more stores and shops will open next to a Wal Mart. Wal Mart doesn't kill small business, it advances it.

Can get any and all of that stuff at my local grocery store or even Kroger if I want to shop more upscale. I'm talking about crappy Wal-Mart brands like Mainstays and the like.
I only concern myself for getting the quality that I pay for, the rest is irrelevant. Based on what I've bought from Wal-Mart in the past, this has not been the case by and large.

How is a GE light bulb sold at Walmart inferior to a GE light bulb sold at Walgreen's?
How is a bottle of Ecco Domani wine sold at Walmart inferior to a bottle of Ecco Domani wine sold at your local liquor store?
How is a Sony TV sold at Walmart inferior to a Sony TV sold at any other electronics store?
Be specific.
WalMart in and of itself is not the problem.
It is what WalMart represents as the nations largest retailer times 5.
It is ironic that a nation that is so "aware" of its own history of slavery and how terrible it was - is the worlds largest consumer of products made by slavery.
Shopping at WalMart, or anywhere else for that matter, and buying products choosing price as the leading factor of why you buy what you buy - is the core reason slavery not only still exist - but there is more slavery now than perhaps ever before. Thanks to you choosing price over everything else.
Personally I have a problem benefiting off of someone else's misery. I actually care. When buying products I spend a little time choosing a product that I find to be made with the least amount of slave labor...even if it cost $.50 more.
Yup, and I don't feel bad about it either

I am proud to shop at Walmart. I generally shop early in the mornings when the store, with the exception of employees, is not busy and I feel I have the place to myself.
The employees at our beautiful store are happy, and laughing and grateful to have their jobs and don't want to go union. The Photo employee has worked there for 12 years, makes $20.00 an hour and loves her health benefits. Or she did as of three months ago. I don't what if anything has changed since.
I am proud of Walmart, for it offers great pricing as well as jobs to others who might be considered unemployable in other stores.
The store manager is good to the employees and that is reflected in the attitudes of the latter, at our local, clean and spiffy, Walmart.
I like to save money and be made to feel as an important customer. I like to support Walmart but I don't expect perfection; just great prices and friendly attitudes.
I agree.

Walmart does not just offer crappy walmart brands. I am not talking about that stuff
I make my comparisons with the exact same thing i get at lucky, safeway, wall greens, target ect. You cant beat walmart prices on national brand stuff.
I too purchase for quality... and can afford anything i want. And still shop at walmart. Why... becasue its the same thing at a better price.

I am sure all of the apple loving liberals agree with you.

I used to shop Walmart...they opened in my town and suddenly not only could women with no education get jobs, they could afford clothing and toys for their kids, and pay their rent.
Now I don't have one close enough so I shop at Fred Meyer's...there's not as much choice, it's more expensive, and most of the employees work 20 hours a week and live with their mothers.
\My wife's friend (who is an AF Dependent Wife and Japanese) worked at a WalMart for a year or so when her husband was stationed at nearby Andrews AFB. They promoted her real quick and wanted to put her into Management but she turned it down.
She said working for WalMart was ok it's just the workers there are just too lazy and stupid (Well, she used Polite Japanese to describe them but that's basically what she said) . She said that she was called upon to finish up what the workers couldn't do (which was often) and apparently was fast tracked for management because of that.
She was real happy to leave.
I try not to shop at WalMart so we go to Giant and Wegmans instead but we do occasionally stop in for one or two items on the way home from somewhere.
My impression of WalMart is that it's a filthy, Illegal Alien magnet. Whenever I'm in there I just wanna' get the f*ck out as soon as possible.
