11. So only criminals go to wal-mart?

Or are you giving us reasons that we should carry if shopping there?


Or are you giving us reasons to avoid Wal-Mart?


What point are you trying to make?


I saw a brand new (dealer tags on a test drive) Chrysler Pacifica catch on fire and burn right in our WM's parking lot once. Funniest thing you ever seen. After the FD showed up and put out the fire the lady doing the test drive pulled off the magnetic tags and called the dealer to tell them the great news. Needless to say I don't think she bought one.
