I actually hate Walmart, but since they destroyed all the small Mom and Pop 
hardware, sporting goods and grocery stores there, sometimes, is no 
alternative. I am often reminding Jan that women "shop", meaning they forage 
and gather, looking at everything. Men "hunt" we seek a singular item (unless 
they are at Harbor Frieght or Northern Tool) locate it and kill it.Game over.

And it is the only place where your shopping list is: 

Motor oil
Shoe polish 
A shotgun
Jumpercables
Kotex
A watermelon
An electric popcorn popper
a GPS
Steel toed boots
Draperies
A swingset
And a Coleman stove

Besides, you can buy stuff, really expensive stuff, use it, and when you're 
done, return it. I can guarantee that even with all the stuff I have bought 
from Walmart they have not made any profit from me. I have used GPS, a sand 
blaster, software, spray painters, a notebook computer, all kinds of stuff that 
you can take back, even without the box. And since nobody there gives a damn, 
all you have to say is "It didn't work" and they give your money back.

  Yes it's definately like Disneyland for Denis. He seems to be ok anywhere 
just so he can locate the Walmart.
