ummm... it's Walmart. Are you expecting the entire membership of Mensa to be shopping there? As the saying goes, it takes all kinds. And the more "interesting" of those kinds tend to spend a lot of time at Walmart.

We used to have a cheer for walmart when I was in college...
Walmart! Walmart! That's our store!
We go there because we're POOR!
lol. I hate Walmart with a passion, but it's the only grocery store in this area that's open after 9. So there are times when I go. (Only to be grumbling the whole way through it.)
I'm loving the new Dollar General Market thing though. It's a DG with groceries. And it's very very cheap. I cut our grocery bill in half by going there, and then hitting Publix for the "name brand" things I need.
Spending too much for groceries pisses me off.
I live for finding bargains, lol.

honeychile, schwans have good food, but not cheap! 
People with more food items in cart at the express lane and then writing a check after they find out the total cost. Hell, you are in the line and in the store, you know the name. Write it down with date and sig first as is being rung up! 
Moving items from one place to another. Leave it alond so we can find it for crying out loud!
I hate mega stores! GRRRR!
What ever you are looking for is at the other end of the damn store.
20 minute trip turns into 1-2 hours!

I generally avoid Walmart like the plague; the one we went to in MA (Framingham/Natick area) was highly annoying, and the one around here isn't much better. If I need cheap, bulk grocery stuff, I'll just go to Target. It's quicker, and they have a Starbucks to feed my caffeine addiction.

Unless your only choices in town are Kroger and Walmart, then you see everyone in town at Walmart or drive a half hour to get to a real store. 
Sometimes I really miss Pittsburgh.

You live in MN and are shopping at Walmart instead of the beautiful pretty Targets on every other street corner?
Edit: My family used to use Schwan's a lot until we found out how heavily involved they are with a religion that doesn't like our kind. We'll still cave and get French Toast Sticks every once in a while but I always feel guilty eating them.

It's not like a shop at Walmart. I mean, I needed toothpaste and Walmart just happened to be there, so I went in. I don't shop at Target either. To me they're both places I would go only to buy small things like toothpaste, deodorant ect. Stuff like that. Plus, I think the people there look pretty trashy, so of course I wouldn't be around people like that very long. Hey, a girl has to keep her pearly whites white. Thanks Walmart.

You'd take Wallyworld over Target because the people at Target are trashy...then what are the people at Walmart, pray tell?
