Not A Fan

I am not a fan of Walmarts, I do my best not to shop there, and I encourage others not to. I don't encourage the employees to file frivolous law suits. If the employees of Walmarts wish to see effective changes made by their employer than they have to let the people's sympathy for their plight continue to work in their favor.
You can make a difference in Walmarts attitude, especially right now during the holidays, shop somewhere else. I realize that not everyone can afford to shop somewhere else, but, if you can avoid going to Walmarts even one time less a month it will make a difference. My wife and I do shop there, it is the only place we can find a particular dog food that our dog will eat, at $7.84 a bag, twice a month, that's were we buy it. We also shop at Walmarts for our prescription needs, they have $4.00 prescriptions that you can't beat price wise. Get your prescriptions filled at Walmarts. While this lasts.
I know this sounds like I went from don't shop to do shop, let me do the math for you. We spend approximately $50.00 a month there. That is a huge difference in what we used to spend there. We buy our groceries and gas at Kroger's and this month that was $300.00 so far. We have spent $300.00 on Christmas presents of which none were bought at Walmarts, and we spend another $200.00 to $400.00 a month on business, personal, and other necessities, all of which could be bought at Walmarts. Of the $950.00 we have spent this month, $50.00 and only $50.00 went to Walmarts. That is how you make a difference, spend your money else where. Buy your prescription drugs at Walmarts, you can't beat $4.00 for a months supply. Buy everything else, somewhere else. Let Walmarts know how you feel about the way they treat their employees and the long..............long...............lines, the rude managers, the blocked aisles, and the other hundreds of reasons by taking your money else where.
