I can’t wait for Walmart to open. Buying housewares, toys and electronics has me giggling a little. Cheers to hoping they don’t follow the same trend as most all businesses in PR: %500 markup.
They’re such a volume purchaser their 500% markup works out to a dollar less.
You need one with a bakery. I’m munching on $1.00 a box fresh crullers from the PG WalMart right now. Better than Timmies… mmmmm!
HOWEVER: the $16 black jeans that turned my hand black when I put my hands in my pockets (didn’t prewash them) got washed once all by themselves. Then washed again, and the bloody dryer sheets still came out black. Thank God that load was all black clothes, black gaunchies and black sox!
When is Buy Nothing Day?
When you buy nothing.
Duh!!!
I thought for sure that there would be pictures of all the people waiting in line outside Walmart by now snickers
Drove by the upper parking lot this morning…dont think I have ever seen it as full as it is…didn’t look like a spot was left so people were parked up and down the two adjacent streets…gonna be a busy weekend in that mall.

Went there after work today… I was surprised by how much grocery items, and it is very well laid out for a smaller store… I found the electronic section looked just like Zellers, but other areas of the store are nice… Nice to be able to get certain products in town now…
Took a stroll through Walmart this morning; the store is very well laid out. They are effectively using the limited space. The shelves are very tall. Went through the electronics section and noted a satisfactory selection of laptops, PCs (Acer, HP).
Went back this morning and see that electronics is pretty good… yesterday could not get close enough to see it properly…
I like how the tills are lined up in row near the back, and again the food selection is large…
It’s a nice store although I have to admit I really didn’t care about it coming here, one way or another, was OK with Zellers ! I don’t think they really needed a pharmacy as there is one downstairs and at each grocery store and heard some complaints from people about lack of kids/ladies clothing and true enough, not much there. Was more selection with Zellers. I like the food section, bought my Carnation Milk for $1.33, $2.60 and up everywhere else and catfood was a good price. I buy my frozen items at Shoppers as the prices there are the same. So, I guess, basically, nice store but other than the above mentioned stuff, no biggie! You could place any name to it and would all be the same ! IMO
Likewise, I could care less which name is above the store. Zellers, Walmart, Target… it’s all the same. The town needs a general store. I think the fact that we just got a completely rennovated and re-organized one is a good thing. Also, more places that have food sections keep the grocery store prices in check.
I went to Wal Mart yesterday. The staff were so friendly,and my god the store is so bright and clean. Time will tell. The tots clothing section isn’t that good but may improve in time. Soooooo different from Zellers.

Went into Wally World last night and saw visions of Zellers , a couple of guys trying to stick a shirt under their sweaters . Clothing all over the floors , very messy
stations . Parents who can not control their hormons and their little end products , who were running all over the place. I think these kinds of parents should
not be allowed in these stores , shoplifters photos should be made available . But I love George tee-shirts , good luck Wally.
No change rooms…really !
I never noticed that! Are there no change rooms in the store? Maybe because there aren’t that many clothes to bother? lol Was in there the other night and the store was a mess, clothing and shoes all over the floor etc. which surprised me as there weren’t that many in the store ! Oh well, still like a few items but nothing special !
Was in Terrace yesterday and never went to Walmart there, a first in many years for me. The Sports Chek reminds me of metrotown and Winners will be opening in Feb. Walmart here will get messy with all the traffic flowing in but this morning it seemed pretty tidy, I went and got milk and more cat food… I still say it’s a huge improvement over Zellers, but I do agree that is nothing special, but for pets it’s hugely good, far cheaper than Leanne’s and more selection than Zellers pet food wise…
Terrace is getting a Winners? Awesome, love their clothing!! I agree with you about Walmart, all I buy there is catfood and my beloved can milk !! I can get some good catfood deals at Dollarama also if they have it in stock !!
