Here ya go...things to do at good ol Wal Mart...the hell hole it is.

THINGS TO DO AT WALMART:

1. Get 24 boxes of tampons and put them in carts of guys when there not looking.

2. Set all the alarm clocks in House wares to go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. Make a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the ladies restroom.

4. Walk up to an employee and tell him/her in an official tone: 'Code 3 in House wares' . . and see what happens.

5. Go to the Service Desk and ask to put a bag of M&M's on lay-away.

6. Move a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.

7. Set-up a tent in the Camping Department -- and tell other shoppers you're sleeping over; invite them in, if they bring pillows from the Bedding Department.

8. When a clerk asks if they can help you, begin to cry and ask: "Why can't you people just leave me alone?"

9. Look right into the security camera, use it as a mirror and pick your nose.

10. While handling guns in the Hunting Department, ask the clerk if he knows where the anti-depressants are.

11. Dart around the store suspiciously, while loudly humming the theme from "Mission Impossible."

12. In the Auto Department, practice your "Madonna look" using different sized funnels.

13. Hide in a clothing rack . . . and when people browse through, say: "PICK ME!!! PICK ME!!!"

14. When an announcement comes over the loudspeaker, assume the fetal position and scream "NO!...It's those voices again!!!"

And last but not least:

15. Go into a fitting room, shut the door and wait a while, then yell loudly: "There's no toilet paper in here!"

shopping at walmart is like shooting your grand-pappy in the neck.

luckily, the devil-WalMart doesn't exist here in the Big Apple.

DON'T SHOOT!

We used to play the Baby Head Game, where you swipe a bunch of the baby doll heads from the craft section and plant them in funny places around the store--in the display blenders, in vacuum bags, among the little frozen chickens, etc.

yea Matt,

we also used to play "steal small stuff worth a large value and return it for store credit to buy beer."

... that was a good game. The Lump was so stupid, tho.

There is a show on CNBC called "The Age of Walmart" and it is the most frightening thing I have ever seen. Walmart can track every purchase you have ever made at any Walmart anywhere in the world within 14 minutes of a purchase. The GNP of Walmart would make it the 8th richest county in the world. Over 80% of all things sold at a Walmart are made outside of the US. This is just some of what I can remember. That show completely changed the way I look at things. Walmart is seriously trying to corner the market on everything. Once they do that then what? That is what scares me.

Well.. then you won't have to decide where to shop or work anymore. :D


Seriously, they must be stopped. It's time to implement the Final Solution to the Walmart question.

I am glad to say Evil Walmart is not in Miami.

Though I hear alot of people traveling to other places like Lauderdale to shop there.

I tell everyone how evil they are. But people are always seduced by the low low prices. And will travel a long way to go there. I have a co-worker that lives in Aventura. She is really excited about the SUPER WALMART opening across the street.


I would go crazy if everyday I looked out the window and a Walmart stared back at me. Crazy! Or just become horribly depressed.

largest private employer in the u.s., and not one of their employees is in a union.

i wish people understood simple economics and the concept of keeping your cash local.

You're right Slam.

You are also the one that turned me on to that great book :

When Corporations Rule the World

by David C. Korten.


This is an excellent book for all you serious minded folk out there. Give it a read. (I'm sure Slam will back me up on this one)

We used to put our friends or ourselves in shopping carts and race down the aisles late at night--of course on occasion knocking down many a display. Isn't it strange how the workers never seem to get upset but slavishly walk around expressionless and just clean things up? I have discussed the evils of walmart in econ classes...several times, and one thing in a documentary freaked me out--every morning they have an employee pep-rally of sorts. They have a competition of finding low prices and scream out slogans...it was awful!!!
First hand though, my boyfriend is from a 17 block town. They now have a Walmart that within two months eliminated every single store on the main street (I Know it has been heard before).
