I like Walmart and I shop there even in defiance of our companies founder, Who can afford to shop elsewhere. I can not!
Walmart's policy of not counting you arrived at the gate is equivalent of ordering a pizza with a guaranteed 30 mins or free and then giving the delivery guy the run-around when he buzzes to get into an apartment building and tying up the elevators so they can not possibly get to your floor and then calling them late because they were not at your apartment door within the 30 mins so you can get a free pizza.
Impeding access at the gate to the check in is a Walmart problem not a delivery problem.

I get some things there but I can't say I *shop* there per se. I mean I haven't been there in months. I don't go on buying sprees and it's too big to just scoot in and out for individual items. Which are usually in automotive. Which is at the rear of the store.
Tractor Supply gets a lot of my business. Small store, in and out, done.

When you get fuel, do you say you got tanked up?

Yes. Of course.When you get fuel, do you say you got tanked up?
And when I get loaded I say I'm loaded.
And when I'm checking out and they ask if I'm loaded I ask "you mean me, or my trailer?" Or I'll say "I wish!"

In the winter time, I'd wear a tank top. If anyone questioned it I'd say I'm exercising my right to bare arms.

I threw a 9 volt and Morton's at someone once. I was arrested for a salt and battery.

I used to be an HVAC technician. I would hire really big dumb brawny guys as assistants.
I called them my duct ape.

About the only thing we ever take to Walmart is Post CERIAL outta Salt Lake City..
Last time was the DC near Yakima Wa about 6months ago..
Back at Dejnos I've taken Woodchips and Stove Pellets to Tomah and Beaver Dam Wi...
Once years ago I went to a Walmart DC near Gary India..
Yup I can just about count on 1 hand how many Walmart loads I ever hauled
Infact I have probably parked at the Kwik-Trip in Menomonie which is down the road from a Walmart more times than I've actually delivered to one
