1. I have made very similar posts.
Just out of curiosity, how do you know these people are really employees? Maybe they are just paid actors. Or maybe those particular employees get paid some big money to do it.

3. If I had to guess, I'd say they are actors.
Just like the "customers" in the ads.

4. You could be right on.
I don't know. But you bring up a good point.

2. Unfortunately, everyone I know (college students) shops at Wal-Mart.
Which is a pretty useless thing to do, considering we're a pretty large city, and we have numerous other grocery and discount stores for people to buy stuff...

5. tell them to shop at Target
Target at least gives a living wage and decent health benefits too.

6. I know...
Have you seen the one where this hispanic family is talking about how they are living the AMerican Dream at Walmart? :puke: The Mom, the Son, and the Dad are all employed by walmart, and apparently, they love it more than life itself. Makes me cringe.
