All the registers are all together now. Quoting: Keilani They just remodeled our Walmart, and thought it was weird, as it's not that old, and so now they have the gates when you come in, and so you can't go back out unless you go through only one check out area, so creepy. If you try to go back through the gates an alarm goes off, so what say you GLP, whatever could we need to be choraled in one and not go back out. Honestly, I felt pretty trapped. There were 20 people in line, which I didn't expect, and didn't really need the stuff, so that's when I realized, you can no longer just walk out of Walmart, one way in, one way out, creepy. Gonna need pics havrnt seen this |

Serepta Ann User ID: 79656536 United States 11/25/2020 06:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Walmart is F'd up, I went in yesterday to send Christmas money to my kids, just as I have for every Christmas, Birthday or emergency for the last 7 years. Just so happens I needed to renew my drivers license and in MO they stamp void on your plastic and give you a paper version (with pic) until the state sends a new plastic. So I tell the lady I need to send money, cash in hand, she pulls it all up on the screen, all the info is there and then she says (as always) I need to see your license...then she informs me that I can't send money without the plastic version, no other form of ID will do, not even my passport. I can cash a check and they will give me money without a license, but they won't let me send cash (that's the new sign she showed me) I said are you serious? yep, now I have to find an alternate way to get money to the kids...I was SO ticked off. NOTHING Walmart does any more surprises me, can't wait until I live somewhere that I don't have to go in another one You have to train your mind to be stronger than your emotions or you will lose yourself every time |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79350849 United States 11/25/2020 06:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Couple weeks ago I scanned three items at the self checkout. Something must have a triggered an alert because an attendant came over to check it out. On the screen played a video of me from overhead scanning my items. I showed the lady what was in my bags. Totally creepy. |

I never feel 100% comfortable in this store. Your picture is taken as soon as you walk in. The place is full of Chinese schlock and the food especially the produce sucks. There are low price bargains that keep people coming in and although there are a few other options in my local small town it remains the most popular place. Probably because of everything being in one place. What really rubs me the wrong way is their political activism and the nerve to display the American flag from the ceiling all over the store when clearly they are a globalist corporation. I'm not sure anybody gets that but they own stores all over communist China. Irish eyes |

Yeah, I did an earlier thread a few weeks back when I started seeing aisles moved around and couldn't figure out what they were doing, now I see the end result. I mean the check-out area is all open now, before there were all separate lanes, but wow, now there's only one way in and one way out, not cool. |

Keilani (OP) User ID: 77232079 United States 11/25/2020 07:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This was one of those mini Walmart grocery stores, that's why it's so weird. A few years back, like five of them popped up in the area, no windows, except maybe upstairs, cement floors, just have a prison feel about them. I did notice one of our super centers the same thing, because I did manage to get in on the wrong end, but then the carts were way over on entrance on other end, but I could not get one, because they had those one way gates, and so I was stuck in store without cart. Last time I was there they had real cops guarding out front, yeah, getting pretty squirrely. |
