I go used to go to Wal-Mart during the summer, because it's open later than Target (which is my favorite store ever, but I wish it stayed open past 10).

I rarely bought anything there... I'd just look at the stuff.

(Aside from Sam's Cola, that is. Cheap soda, hooray.)

I don't know if it's done everywhere, but the one here sells fish. And I love fish, so I loved to go there and look at them. They'd even have upside-down catfish sometimes, and those are wonderful.
But I've never bought fish there, because they often looked to be sick, overcrowded, etc. Kinda sad.

Anyway, it's a shame that it's such a horrible chain, because it's provided me some amusement in the past.

Wal Mart = evil

Employees are often very unknowledgable and rude. Expected of employees who are underpaid and overworked, I seldom blame them. Attracting a large mass of people, Wally World also attracts the people I hate the most. Fat, rude welfare junkies who walk at 0.00001 km/h and block the entire lane.

Suffice to say, if I'm ever near Wal Mart, I'm there kicking and screaming against my will

You know those stores that you can just practically spend all day in just looking and wandering around, to me Target is that store. So much stuff there. So much to see. I was there today and looked at cell phone hand-free headsets for 15 minutes, then find another section of them and pick up one to purchase.

There's always the clearance eisle(spelling? Hmm, I should run a spell checker), with some good stuff sometimes. NBA Player Legos for $1.48, w00t! Gundam Wing model kits for $5!!!

Oh but today, Target was sold outta FFXI for PS2 and it was 1pm, all the kiddies were in school still. And they raised the price of NBA Street vol.2 from a greatest hits $20 to $39.99, WTFunk!?

Our Target rocks. I go to target for EVERYTHING, there are so many things on clearance, and a good majority of them are games.
Target's pretty cool in my experience. I say this basically because they were selling all PS2 Greatest Hits titles for $15. Got my Jak & Daxter and FFX from that deal. Very nice.
Target has a wider selection of stuff as well. Not only that, but you don't have to deal with all the crying kids that you see at Walmart.

Seriously? I mean, I have enough figures around my dorm, and I have some Gundam models at home to bring up... but dang, that's a nice deal.

Wal-Mart is also resposible for young children who have very bad neck problems due to setting video game demos very high above the ground. I used to beat kids up at killer instinct long ago.

It's also the reason why most of the controllers are jacked up, now they play only movies.

The biggest problem wal-mart, k-mart, target and the like have is that they'll hire anybody.

Good, cuz I need a job real bad. And when I go into game stores I usually know more than the retailers. I don't know if that is good or bad. They should hire my ass, NOW!
