Good luck finding an employee to open it... Ray Walston must be spinning in his grave.

I used to go with my now-wife and pretend we were Leakey and Fossey... "notice the tribal bandanas..."

Course, I could go (instead of 2 towns east) 1 town west and visit a "normal" Wal-Mart - but I rather not be associated with "those" people!

BTW - the "Taxi Driver & guns to-go" post was the funniest thing!
This descriptions fits the WalMart my wife and I frequent. It wouldn't happen to be the one in Union City, California now would it? Of course for ours you need to add a bunch of rude employess who don't speak any English that give you that "your on my time" attitude when you try to pay for your merchandise, thus adding to their minimum wage pay check.

But of course, the BEST part about WalMart is their complete disregard for the street date theory.
I LOVE going in on Saturday's and catching the Tuesday releases sitting on the shelf without any prices on them.
THAT alone makes the visit well worth it.
