Walmart Supercenter

"Automotive center review: I came in early, with no appointments scheduled until 9:00 (as told by the older male employee). There were literally no cars there, but he denied my service and said he couldn’t get to my car for another four hours. Bizarre. He was rude, sarcastic, and obviously preferred a certain race over others. He then told me I could set an appointment for an oil change online but proceeded to set one for me on his computer. I’ve come to this Walmart multiple times and have never had an issue or encounter like this one, nor have I ever had to set an appointment for an oil change. I will never return here for any service."

"This Walmart, I think, is a bit better than your run-of-the-mill Walmart. It's never over busy, and they do a good job of keeping things stocked (most of the time). My only major complaint is the checkout experience. I'm all for the self checkout as I can get things set out and then bagged the way I want. I work late afternoons/evenings, so I'm usually there between 8:30 and 10:30. Now they have, I believe, 5 of the regular sized self checkout aisles. The same size as the ones that have a cashier. All the cashiers are gone, of course, but they also shut down the big self checkout aisles as well. That leaves the tiny ones only. The ones that have room for maybe 8-10 items, depending on the size of said items. I do all the grocery shopping for the wife and I, so I may have 25-40 items on any given trip. So it's impossible to unload my cart before I start scanning things. So I have to pack that little shelf area with whatever I can get to balance there, and then rearrange the stuff in the cart to make room for the bagged groceries. Then repeat until complete. Of course it's not the end of the world, but it is a pain in the arse, and it pretty much doubles my checkout time. And since there are no aisles with cashiers available, there's no other choice. What's the reasoning behind this? Save money having to pay fewer employees? I don't think so, because at least half the time there are two, sometimes three employees standing right there, talking amongst themselves. I even tried going there one day around 2:00 pm, and still, the large self checkout aisles were all closed. If Walmart is going to force their customers to check themselves out, the very least they could do is to make as convenient as reasonably possible. There's an awesome Publix just down the road that I love to shop at. Problem is it will cost me ~ 30% more to do that. And on $200-$250, that adds up in a hurry! So, Walmart, please keep the large checkout aisles open for your customers. No matter who you are, time is money for us all."

"NEW CHECK OUT POLICY at this Walmart allows only four customers to check out at one time IF Walmart only has one employee present to overwatch us (because we all are stealing from them, right?) I was unaware of any changes and as I started into what I’ll call the “coral”,not only because Walmart makes us feel like cattle at times with how they treat us, but also because of its general shape and purpose, anyway as I entered into the area I heard the familiar yelling of a particular associate at this Walmart, a very loud middle aged woman who has been unfriendly in our past encounters. She is very un-pleasant to deal with in my opinion. She’s loud and abrasive and always KNOWS what she says is right. She actually told me once that she was the only person in that store that knew how to ring up a gift card I had received. Even when she couldn’t make it go through, she knew is was someone else’s fault. So she’s yelling something that I don’t quite understand as I’m looking for a register so I can once again ring up, and bag my own groceries. I don’t see her or understand what she’s saying. Like I said she’s always yelling something. The next thing I know she’s in my face screaming and my buggy is being forcibly pushed against me. Then backwards. You can’t go in there she yells. I looked up and the veins in her face and neck are about to pop. Only 4 customers at a time she yells. New Walmart corporate policy!!! Dazed I stepped back as she repeated her rant “New corporate policy!!! “Only four customers at a time when only one employee is present!! “ I considered walking out. But I knew I would only have to go right down the street to Publix( where they ring up and bag for you and all the associates are always nice. They can be a little more so most of the time I just come to Walmart to work my way around the Walmart employees loading things into those multi level monstrosities of carts that they use for home deliveries I sat back and waited as the Walmart associate actually pushed my cart back a little more to make her point. If Walmart wishes to have only one register in the whole dang store up and running, that’s up to them, but I can spend my money at any of the three grocery stores in our small town of Chelsea , Alabama and if I have many more encounters like that one, l will."

"I do grocery pickup often but lately every single time I’ve either had an item missing or they have given me expired food. They gave me already rotting hamburger meat that expired TWO WEEKS before I picked it up. This is absolutely unacceptable. Grocery’s are too expensive to just throw away. Do better."

"This Walmart has some of the nicest and helpful employees. Every time I shop there I find everything I came to shop for. The pharmacy is really good as well. I’ve also used the Auto services. The mechanics are very fast and always do a great job."
