We came here around 11pm one night to check out the merchandise and the crowd that shops in there at that time. It was very interesting. The place is open 24 hours!!! Talk about maximizing their profits. They sold guns here which was scary coming from the Bay Area where I don't think my local Target sells guns and rifles. Must be demographic marketing at it's best. I tried not to look at the others shopping there but some I couldn't take my eyes off of, I was so fascinated. There was the family with 2 kids under 5 shopping around, shouldn't these kids be sleeping by now? There was the couple in the check out line which had like 10 huge rolls of ground beef or the ones that had like a whole shopping cart full of random items like motor oil, shampoo, etc, it filled up like 20 Walmart bags, at least. There were the mullet men, I could go on but I will digress.
They kind of carry everything at a Walmart, which is scary. My friend says that if they don't have it at Walmart, you probably don't need it then. I could see how that was true since you could get stuff for your car, you could redecorate your living room including repainting it, set up an entertainment center, and even then go buy some meat, fresh produce and baked goods to make a dinner before you walk out of that place. They even had live fish in the pet center area, you could even shut up your kid who wants to leave before you make your way through the whole store by getting them a live little pet fish friend to hold OR for the girl, a Carol Burnett limited edition Barbie Doll which we saw in the clearance aisle, while you take your sweet time walking through the megastore.
The peaches were on sale for a $1 a pound, that is pretty freaking good no matter where you are buying fruit and the red seedless grapes we got were sweeter than the ones I get at Safeway back home now.
Maybe Walmart isn't as horrible as I once thought. But I'm probably more just a sellout and have just given in into the Man and am happy to take my $12 Danskin black workout pants with me out of the store and feel content with my bargain I just picked up. Sigh.
