I wish I could shop at Walmart less; there’s nothing near by that fits my budget. I truly believe this is a tactic for Walmart to recoup their money; pay their employees less, forcing their employees to shop at Walmart because they can’t afford anything else.
Then they start offering apartments nearby, owned by WalMart, so you can save on gas. Then they start paying you in WalBucks which can only be used at WalMart or to pay for your apartment.
Suddenly you can’t afford the things you need to live, but it’s ok! WalMart has it all and they’ll give you credit! It gets even easier though! They’ll just your purchases out of your pay! …which is never enough to cover the purchases.
Yeah I haven’t given Walmart a penny in the last decade or so but I also realize I’m incredibly privileged to be able to shop at the more expensive local stores.
Walmart is also directly responsible for the cost of sea freight though so they’re still affecting your life whether you want them to or not.
Well I can’t, personally, shop at Walmart less (then zero), but I hope others will consider it now.
It was already past due to support Walmart’s competitors, anyway, if we want any choices in our communities. Bullshit like this just confirms it.

I totally get that, and hope you never feel bad about that.
I will keep voting with my money, when I can, for alternative options that may someday make your situation better.
Hang in there however you can.
Aaaaawwwww! Thank you so much for your kind words and compassion. It truly means a great deal.

Now you’re a slave to WalMart.
How long until Walmart starts paying in scrip? I mean you could argue they already sort of do with how many of their staff are on food stamps.

Shoplifting?
Other stores exist in my area, thankfully.
