Well, I'm retired and like to camp! lol I'd pitch a tent. I am already frustrated with Wally-World. Can't ever find the same product 2 trips in a row. It looks more and more like the name brands are disappearing and we are being forced into buying the Great Value brand. (sometimes it's NOT so Great). I feel like it under government control as we are being forced to use what Wally-World offers. Add all that to poor customer service blah, blah, blah and I am now willing to drive 40 miles to shop at different stores. Mr. "Wal-Mart" is rolling in his grave at what his heirs have done to his business.
Sorry, just had to vent a little. They should stick to selling what the customer wants, spending profits to help their employees and get back to the REAL customer service they had in the beginning and keep out of the political aspect and leave our fish and waters alone.
(grrrrrrrrrrrr)

| The rumor I heard was they can't have an oil/ lube or gas station due to being so close to the Oso (for environmental reasons). |

I just got back from my first visit to the fishing department. I was at Academy this morning and almost bought a new tackle box. I found it at Walmart for $20 less. It was the last one and the wife said I had to get it  |

I like it when my wife tells me to buy fishing stuff, or tools. Same thing.

Maybe after awhile the Manager will start buying some local stuff. We still have Roy's and Academy.
