they do have cheap bell helmets though. and tubes. and junk food. i heard there coming out with their own wine though, for like 6 bucks a bottle.
"I cant believe its not vinegar." sounds like the most likely name.

F*CK yeah they did, godam, the CD case is so essential, yet its made out of meterial that is not up to the job, i think they make them brittle as hell and put those clear sticker on them so when u open them up they crack so they can seel more frigen CD cases.

and on top of "in on the kill taker" isnt that good of a album.

So you think CD's at Wal-Mart have different jewel cases than CD's at other places?

Go ahead and hate Wal-Mart, it's a great thing to do, but at least come up with an intelligent reason.

First you have the nerve to shop at wally mart. Then you have the nerve to buy a Fugazi cd from them. Then you actually have the nerve to diss Fugazi??? I will not tolerate any bad mouthing of one of my all time favorite bands!!!

Boy you are treading on thin ice :nope:

Hey, I thought you liked them ;)

You comin' down to A-town for the non-political ride next weekend???

GB with back trails, gotta love it.

I do, but they cut out curse words from a cd Julie gave me. Don't even remember which one. Might make the ride. I would like to.

If ice is the solid form of water, how do you tread on it??? Wouldn't you skate or walk on thin ice??? I don't know since we don't have much ice here.

buying fugazi from wal-mart is pretty stupid. save some $ and order direct from dischord.
That was my advice as well. But honestly I don't understand buying Fugazi from wal*mart in the first place...

Smoke comes out of my ears when I try to figure that one out :confused: :mumble:

Fugazi = :love: :heart: :love: :heart: :love: :heart:

wal*mart = :stosh: :devil: :oink: :rolleyes: :dead: :eviltongu :nope:

Shut up and Ride
I was so happy tht they opened a walmart super center 1 minute from my house (it was a regular walmart before) so my lazy ass doesnt have to drive 10 minutes to hanaford..........2 trips there, and I'm back to shopping at Hanaford.

1 time the dude put 2 iems in each bag, I'm talking small items too, I must have had over 15 bags..........next trip I bought about the same amount of groceries & the guy tried to put all my groceries in 2, maybe 3 bags :mumble:

Well you asked for it

1) Minimum time spent in line is 15 minutes reguardless of line lenght
2) The item you want either isn't on the shelf or is marked as something else
3) If you do have the fortune of finding something that is not mis-marked or missing altogether the package has been mutilated and likely pieces are broken or misssing.
4) They sell fish, what's up with that?
5) Even if you aren't a minority you'll feel like one as soon as you enter the parking lot
6) They let rednecks bring their dogs into the store
7) It's getting close to christmas so all the reasons I have to not shop at walmart will be twice as irritating.
8) None of the sales people know anything period
9) In Rock Springs Wyoming they opened a Wal Mart and interviewed 350 people, only 24 of them passed the drug test, so where did the other 120 people on their payroll come from?
10) Their prices aren't any better than what you can find online or at other similar stores like Target where you'll get better service.

You should take number 5 as an oppurtunity to go there one last time to buy a bullet and off yourself. :dead:

well that's being awefully tolerant now isn't it.

I didn't say there was anything wrong with being a minority, I just said that when you enter the parking lot it's tough to tell who's the majority. Where else can you go and find people speaking Hmong, Spanish, English, Tagalich, Portugeese, Hebrew and English under one roof? Does the blending of cultures contribute to the congestion at the registers, the disorganization of the stores and the uselessness of the employees, I'd say it does.

You seemed enough like a bigot without this last post. If you truly are not, I apologize. It is hard to tell on the Internet as you know.

read this: http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/77/walmart.html

and http://www.alternet.org/story/12962

walmart is the devil, lowering wage and working standards around the world to get you your low prices, and driving companies out of business by tempting them with their massive market share and then just destroying products by making prices so low.

man you read those fast....

I mean you should do your own research that is not reliant on any form of news media. You should speak to actual people. I do not love them, but realize that while some businesses are gone due to them, many people have jobs thanks to them. They have some nice packages for their employees. We did anyway. I understand that Wal-mart employees had the same luxury. They could have changed in 2 years though. I did hate their "team meeting" philosophies.

Anecdotal research is my favorite kind of research! Maybe I can find a person that works at Wal Mart and talk to them!
