Do people who shop at Walmart seem unusual to you?

we never go to walmart. don't like their treatment of their employees, business practices or their stores in general. this site was funny though!!!!!

No more than anywhere else. People who go to the zoo on free day, now there's a bunch of crazy looking people.

I never shop there. I've never been to one. There's not one close enough; I don't even know where the closest one is. What do you mean, "seem unusual?"

As opposed to K-Mart or the Dollar General shoppers?

Be more specific. Are you talking about people who have "at least once in their lifetime been inside of a Walmart" or people who only go there and nowhere else? Walmart is the #1 retailer in the US for a reason? If anything, I would argue that anyone who has never been inside of a Walmart (save for people who haven't spent anytime in the US) are a bit unusual.

Now, to the latter case. Well, if you're poor or cheap enough that you can't afford to shop anywhere else, then thats unusual in its own sense. But its not the actual Walmart shopping that makes you unusual, its the conditions surrounding you that make you go there.

No. I never shop there, but I know people who do, and they seem normal to me.

Wal-mart certainly brings out the flavor of the city.

Some do
Some do not
I like unusual people

I've never been in a Walmart.

No, I shop at walmart every time I go to the US and stock up on stuff, as funny as some of those pics are, I bet you could go into any large store in the summertime and see people like this

That would make me unusal too. Only thing is likely the proportion of people is more lower middle class. I find it's just ordinary people who are smart and know where the best prices are.

I find that a bullcrap excuse. Who cares about their employees? If they don't like it there they can find another job. Opponents use the same lame crap trying to block Walmart everywhere. There is going to be a huge super Walmart a few blocks from me open 24 hrs a day. I can't wait. Usual bozo's trying to block it, unsuccessfully of course.

I definitely wouldn't say they're necessarily smart.

Not really. I usually only tend to shop at Wal-Mart when we're at our house in Georgia. Going to Wal-Mart is kind of exciting when we're there because there are not many retail opportunities around way out in the boonies. Wal-Mart is a 45 drive away...yes, some of the people are odd but they are pretty representative of the local population. I am excited that our little town is getting its own Wal-Mart this fall. It will make life a lot easier.

Kind of. I've only been inside of a Wal-Mart a few times. I always feel kind of strange in places like that. Malls... that sort of thing...

How odd. I was going to click this survey to post this exact link

In some towns, it's the only place to find work.... because Wal-Mart came in and put everyone else out of business. In fact, when I worked at Wal-Mart in Dunn, NC about 10 years ago, they had a framed picture of the only competition left in town hanging in the back room..... It always reminded me of a hitlist.

Excellent!
It inspires me to take photos next time I go.

The grocery stores here in town on a Sunday late afternoon. It's legitimitly scary.

We do most of our weekly food shopping at the nearest large supermarket, which happens to be an Asda-Walmart store. The people who shop there don't look anywhere near as bad as in those photos.

Farmfoods on the other hand is a like a holding pen for The Jeremy Kyle show.

I go there occasionally, as well as Walgreens [I can walk there, but it isn't nearly as huge. Walmart has EVERYTHING.] KMart too, yeah. But if I go clothes shopping, that's at the mall. I might get some hair stuff or something at those places. I love dollar stores, but they're not as fun as when I was a kid. Good for candles and stuff.

Yes but only if you shop at the 24 hour stores and go about 3 in the morning. You get to see some VERY strange people then. Most in PJ's.

Oh get over yourself... I could care less about how the employees are treated, or their business practices as long as the prices are low.

Yes! It's starts at the front with the greeter.

whatever, you don't seem to care about anyone else................... i do and not everyone can "just find another job".

see reply above to cerealkiller, that's your opinion........... and i think your opinion about this is wrong!

Sometimes.

No they do not

Some do. Some don't.

I love people watching.
But no, never been to Walmart.

I was just there today....I looked....nothing weird

I have actually never been inside a Walmart - but I don't live in the U.S. I just saw the Southpark episode about Walmart - very funny.

OMG yes! especially in Jonesville Michigan. It's a little redneck town and there are quite a few rednecks!!!!! It's so funny, my mom and I make fun of people all the time in there.
