3.) The screaming cranky kids.
4.) WIC/Food Stamp Day.
5.) stuff spilled in the floor of an aisle, its dried and sticky, and no one has bothered to clean it up.
6.) The nasty azzed bathrooms.
7.) Stocktime - boxes blocking the very aisle you need to be in.
8.) People leaving ICEE cups on store shelves. (To me this is irresponsible and gross)
9.) Not being able to buy Premium dog food at a Wal-Mart Price - Ol' Roy just dont cut it.
10.) Not finding the one pair of shoes you like in your size.

12.) Three words: day after Thanksgiving.
13.) The hoardes of kids parked near the office supply section during back-to-school week.
14.) the way they are rushing the **** holiday season - it is July and they already have their Christmas crap out.
15.) Not being able to locate a store employee when you need something just out of reach.
16.) they already have their winter stuff out and it is 100 degrees outside
17.) The unorganized movie bin. For gods sake at least put them in order and not just thrown in there, you cannot find anything that way!
18.) The way the store is laid out- why cant all the wal-mart stores have the same layout??
19.) Why cant two wal-marts carry the same products?
20.) Their carts are too small for all the stuff you have to buy in there!
21.) They need to sell more pet items.
23.) Their bag section is horridly organized.
24.) Their clothes suck - for a couple of years they had some good designs, but not anymore. Although I do like the screen print Tees.
25.) The express lane is always overcrowded as well as the self-checkout lanes and the tobacco lane is the one farthest from the door.
26.) The men standing in the magazine section blocking the aisle.
27.) The men congregated in the fishing department blocking the aisle - hey I like fishing too, but that dont mean you gotta block the **** aisle.
28.) Their butt-ugly bright green shoes - pray tell me nobody wears those. those should be banned!
29.) The long line in the pharmacy dept. usually old folks who are waiting on their medication and are getting screwed by the Medicaid RX plan.
30.) the fact that toothbrushes and condoms are on the same aisle is scary enough!
31.) The stuff you really need is AAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL the way in the back and you have to bypass the useless stuff to get to it.

35.) Or the lack of any employee to be seen when you are needing help.
36.) Refunds are useless - they dont give you cash, they give you store credit.
37.) All of their electronics are disfunctional. Most of the electronics are rebuilt and shipped to Wal-Mart for the great low-price.
38.) People standing in the TV aisle watching the HD TVs.
39.) Just people blocking aisles in general.
40.) The check-out clerk that is slamming your goods around and simply does not give a sh!t.
41.) the clueless boy in hunting supply when youre looking for shells.
42.) Their CD section is disorganized by kids who fail to put CDs theyve sampled back in the proper place.

69.) They have security cameras pointed in the dressing room stalls and lord knows what some perverted security guard is doing while monitoring that.
70.) only one shoe in shoeboxes.
71.) The fact that you cant find certain CDs in wal-mart because appearently they have the word shi!t in it.
72.) When you have a fever and have a stopped nose, you have to go through the hooba-hoo of finding the medicine aisle, finding your medicine, only finding they have cards for it and you have to go stand in line for the pharmacist for your cold medicine.

87.) People in the next aisle over talking loudly into their cell phones about their personal problems.
88.) Rude people who use their cart to shove you out out of their way.
89.) Standing behind someone with about 3 carts full of stuff and when the cashier announces their total they whip out their checkbook, write in the register then write the check and Im standing there thinking, couldnt you have started on that BEFORE and just wrote in the total for the check??
90.) The bathrooms have NO TP and no soap.
91.) customers leaving carts next to cars, or fill up a usable parking space with carts (not placing them in the cart corral)
92.) People coming in or going out the wrong doors. Walmart has these doors clearly marked and yet I still see people going in the Exit side and people exiting on the Entrance side.
93.) Shoppers in walmart driving their carts and yapping into a cellphone and dont watch where they are going, Ive been run into once by a gabbing woman.
94.) People making dumb comments while Im driving the buggy with one hand, and holding my DD in the other and someone just has to say "You got your hands full dont you?" NA DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.....
95.) People using the self-checkout machines that cannot figure them out.
96.) People walking slowly in thin skinny aisles and you cannot get around them.
97.) Parents who let their children eat candy right off the shelf opened before bought - isnt that another form of theft??

99.) People who discard candy wrappers on shelves at the cash register.
