Not really. Although I very often can find things I need there, I don't like going. I dislike the bright lights and the noise and the crowds. I like to get in there, find what I need, and get out as quickly as possible.

We don't have Walmart so I've never been in one but I see lots of complaints and people making fun of those who shop or work there.
Is it really that bad?

I worked there for over two years & I'm glad I quit when I did. I don't care for shopping there but I don't really like being at any store thou.

Yeah. I usually have my iPod with me when I get my stuff from there.

We have Asda, which is owned by the Waltons and stocks a lot of the same stuff.

One opened near me almost three years ago and I like going there, mostly for the clothes and maybe to pick something up for lunch. I get a lot of my Umbro sportswear from there amongst other things.

Nope. Strange people go there wearing pajamas.

The one in my town is certainly better than others I've been to. The store is clean and the employees are friendly. Haven't come across any 'wal-mart shoppers' yet, obviously meaning the kind that give the store its reputation. But no complaints really.

It's ok to mediocre and prefer smaller shops since I'm more comfortable in smaller stores. Since I'm at least mildly agoraphobic a large store such as Super Walmart is not my favorite place.

Like with going to a lot of places, I wear my shades, earphones, have my hood pulled up and stay next to whoever I'm with, so I get through it okay.
