Do smiles and thank you cost extra?


I am fed up with Walmart.
We spend a lot of money there on a weekly basis. They are in the middle of remodeling our store so everything is rearranged and not in the place where it normally is which makes shopping, a chore I hate to begin with, even worse.
I picked up some wallpaper gunk to help soak the old wallpaper off the walls we are fixing up, and a box of foam crafts for me and Ian to decorate.
We go to check out and I said hi, but the cashier didn't say one word to me, or even looked at me. Do you think she could even hand me the bag when she was done? Nope.
Grrr.
I'm pretty certain it costs extra for these small things that make a big difference to me.
I can't wait until the new Fareway Foods is built so maybe we can start shopping there for our groceries more.
If it wasn't for Walmart's low prices, believe me, I'd shop elsewhere all the time. I do shop other places whenever possible.

Thanks for listening to my rant. Do you have similar story about Walmart, or any other store?

P.S. Pictured is some of the candy corn people we made from the craft kit we bought tonight. Everything was all cut out and you didn't even need glue. Just peel and stick. My kind of craft. :)

Those candy corn are adorable, I'll have to get some for the girls to do.

I think The Wal Mart that I live closest to is the worst one in the nation. Around here that one is known as Ghetto Walmart. There are actual town policemen stationed in it. I swear you have to have a scowl on your face to be employed there. The aisles are way to cluttered, there are never enough registers open. A lot of the times that I didn't drive to the "good" Walmart the store itself looks dirty. I have been in there when the lines were no lie at least 3/4 of the length of the store. One would think that they'd open more than 3 registers but no. I was so pissed I filed up my cart and left it there. (This is not even a Super Walmart mind you)
