It's ridiculous to think they they are just the innocent victim in all of this. They have created a place in which poorer (and not so poor) families could buy things that had been totally out of reach previously. By the time it was clear how they made things so affordable, no one, including me, was really willing to give up all that <i>ooh, look at that, and it's only $</i> stuff. Most of us have a love/hate relationship w/ the stores we regularly shop in. I generally find myself in a Wal-Nart 3-4 times a year, usually in the summer.

Just campers, or tents (backseat of car) as well? If true, my stayaction days might be over... Can one really camp/sleep (claim sanctuary) in a Wal-Mart parking lot?

Don't forget, you vote with your dollars. If they did shut down Wal-Mart, something else would just take it's place. <b>Don't blame the store blame the customers!!!</b> Everyone complains about Wal-Mart, yet everyone shops there.

Yup. Anyhow, Wal-Nart in Canada isn't that bad. Just indicative of the neighborhood its built in. So don't go on the wrong side of town,... my last dance off with the "Jets" went terribly wrong... I'll never stick that Arabesque... Wal-Nart… ha ha. Yup.

They've just built a 2nd one near me (about 7 miles away from another Walmart store)and though I expected it to be nicer because it's brand new, it's more than that. it was definitely built for a different level of customer. Even the prices were higher in the new store (for same items) and had different brands. The older one was built in the middle of the city (not the best neighborhood) and the new one is right smack in the middle of sub-divisions w/ 1/2 million+ dollar homes and I haven't seem one jammy-wearing morbidly obese mama w/ her 10 kids in tow at midnight on a Saturday night. ...and don't ask what I was doing at Walmart on a Saturday night...I don't have a life.
