DAMN IT! I didn't see the ****ing W.I.C. book!

Ewwww you shop at Wal-Mart. Probably a closet Taurus owner to.
the Walmart up here is almost unshoppable now. They made all the aisles narrower so they could fit the huge pickup center over by tire and auto. Two people can no longer pass on an aisle and the order pickers wander the store blocking everything. To make matters worse, they are now stocking in the day so the center aisles are full of pallets full of stuff and people with pallet jacks are all over the store mixed in with the order pickers, and the 6 of us are dumb enough to be in the store.

Then let us not forget the floor cleaner that is automated and drives itself around unmanned and for some reason, they think the middle of the day with everything going on is a better time for that thing to roam around beeping loud as hell rather than doing it at night when nobody is in the building.

I tried doing the pickup thing but half the stuff they brought me was wrong so that's not an option.

When I do wander in to get something, I make a point to run into as many order pickers and pallet jack operators as possible while in the store, bonus points for a random employee walking while looking at their phone. If that stupid floor cleaner makes the mistake of coming anywhere near me, I make a point to hit the emergency stop on it and leave it stranded wherever it is. No joke, I did it once on a Sunday by the milk, and when I went back Tuesday morning to get something, it was still sitting there.

and don't even get me started on the dumbass manager who told me I need to pay her sales tax on the item I brought into the store with me, with a receipt, that I owned, because I purchased it in Montana and they don't have sales tax.
 
WIC, EBT, and all government assistance should use pickup or delivery. I would prefer the programs go away or at least go back to a single location in each county where those who qualify could go pick up their food.

If we are going to pay for people to buy Doritos and Mountain Dew, the least they could do is have it brought out to them so I don't have to stand in line behind them and see the crap our tax dollars are being wasted on. It's not like they are getting produce anyway.
 
I've proudly avoided stepping foot in a Walmart for almost a year now. I just can't do it. Kroger is almost getting as bad around here in Macon. It's slowly becoming Walmart in that regard. I'll spend more to go to Publix to avoid the W.I.C. users for the most part. Damn right I'm elitist. I wish there was a Costco here....

Same here on avoiding walmart. Been almost 2 years I reckon since I set foot in one. Every time I step foot in a Kroger, I feel like I need a shower when I get home. Sorry, never been in one that wasn't ghetto as hell.
