  1. I recon we just need to learn no matter what some of us will never be satisfied on how stuff is ran. And places and people will always be compared to other places and people.

     

    I just know that no matter how rude some shoppers were, the employees at walmart were the most helpful I have ever seen this year. I was asked repeatedly can I help you find anything. Maybe I looked like a shoplifter, lol..

     

    LOL...I ran into someone having the opposite problem. Lady turned up early to guarantee her sewing machine (which they grossly over ordered at my store) and then argued with store reps about why she has to wait until start of sale time to pick up/check out.

     

    It never ceases to amaze me how stuff around these parts always turns into "this would never happen in" insert Cuba or whatever other country these people came from. Every time it takes everything in me to not respond "why don't you go back if it was so great". I guess the grass is always greener on the other side for some people?

     

    I'm 1st generation American and every BF for whatever reason (probably the abundance of deals) my mom recalls the story of her first trip to a 7-11 and it always brings tears to my eyes. Her uncle (who'd arrived a few months earlier since he served in the US army) took her+sisters to 7-11 and told them they could pick whatever they wanted. My youngest aunt took one candy bar and innocently asked him if when they came back the next day there would still be candy left for her to LOOK at and he broke down in tears.

  2. lots of people coming 5 minutes before 10 thinking they could score a $179 laptop. "well the sale doesnt start until 10". just wanted to say duh we havent bought them yet. Been lined up for 6 hours though should have came then you would have scored one.

     

    Plus several men complaining about all the people in a rude way, like we were all suppose to separate like the red sea for them. AARRRGGGG some men need to stay home.

     

    Lots of people complaining about sizes already being gone in the sheets, "well the ad said all sizes". Yep at one time there was all sizes. Well alot more queen than any other size but I seen them all. You just had to dig.

     

     

    For the record, this store did allow people to put stuff in carts way before 8 or 10. No one checked out with the stuff so technically sale didnt start until those times. Still had lines for tv, game systems and stuff like that. Signs on all stuff saying wont scan until 8 or 10.

     

     

    All stores should do it that way, no fights, no one hurt. Only people who walked in at 8 or 10 wanting stuff. But face it even if we couldnt get the stuff til those times, if you just walked in at 8 you wouldnt get it anyway.

     

     

    Hollister was a night mare. there were 5 teenish boys standing blocking the flow complaining about it being hot using some really really foul language. I first thought they were employees because they were all dressed in hollister but they were eventually ran off. Plus saw a person bring stuff to someone in line and a girl watching the line told her that wasnt allowed, WOO HOO. I loved that. OK normally I would think that is so smart but the line was wrapped all the way around store and if everyone else had to shop then get in line everyone should, right.

     

    Got almost everything I wanted except footloose. But sales arent over yet.

  3. DH is now on his and he says its nothing special. He is in no way a computer person, its the windows 8 that has him locked up.

     

    He will learn it and it will be just fine.

  4. I dont think its online, looks like it in store only. Might be wrong double check me

     

     

    plus midnight opening, see excluded stores list to make sure your is open at midnight.

  5. WOW I take DH with me too, he would rather spend more than to go. That would be ok if we were only going for 1 item. But I just tell him to suck it up its only once a year. Now I would just tell him you just do what I tell you and stay as close to me as possible or go where I direct you to go. LOL It works great for me. Plus him being with me is great for when I need him to stay with buggy, yes I do buggy when I am at walmart.

     

    You will be so glad he went with you. Its like having an assistant.

     

    1 bad thing I have to deal with is, are you done yet?

  6. 30% off ends tonight

     

    MERRYDAY

     

    I got jeans for 17.50, not quite $15 but now I dont have to worry about shopping online while out shopping too. I got free shipping also.

  7. I got a paula deen pan that bulged in the middle and heats more in the middle. I got it to cook bacon (square flat pan) and now only use it to make grilled cheese since the heat isnt even. Bacon was burnt in middle and raw on ends. This was a couple of years ago so maybe they are better now.

     

    Weird thing is the pan is a heavy pan, I am shocked the heat wasnt distributed evenly.

     

    doreen725 it seems the pans nowadays are heavy. I do know that cooks essentials on qvc has stainless that is non-stick inside and is very lightweight, has a solid metal piece on bottom to distribute heat. I got a couple pieces and love it. Non stick hasnt peeled and I use those almost every time I cook. Bad thing is they are kinda pricey to me.

  8. my map is so small, gonna have to go view it on the bigger screen desktop just to see what it says.

     

    i noticed where the video games will be, but it has no mention at all of some of the major things, like the nabi, the DS deal or the movies

    I got a pretty good size monitor and I cant read it. I guess I will just have to be surprised, thats ok

  9. Last year the manager came thru and told all the cashiers to let people get the later stuff and told them how to override it. That was so great. I had one thing and I was willing to leave without it, but didnt have too. I think he was wanting all the people out of the store, lol.
  10. Complete disappointed with Walmart. Almost none of the BF items I was planning on buying from them are available online. Kind of hard to come in the store when you live 5,000 miles away (picking up when coming back to the States). I guess that they really DON'T want my business!

    Curious, how do you know none of it is available?
