“The young lady that helped me was very helpful and attentive. I believe her name was Amber. She actually showed me a few pair of boots until we found the right one. Even after all that she brought me multiple sizes to make sure I got the right fit.”
“I went in for dog food and ended up asking about training treats as well. The staff gave practical suggestions instead of pushing expensive brands, which I liked. At the counter, there was a slight pricing confusion for one item, but they corrected it quickly when I pointed it out. One shelf looked a bit disorganized during my visit, probably due to customer handling, but overall stock was decent. The experience felt simple and straightforward.”
“=UPDATE= I don't mind self checkout at all. I end up with 5 or 6 bags vs. 20+ going thru regular checkout, which are rarely even open at the times I shop. I don't even mind having to show my receipt EVERY time at the door. (and the register asks if you want it emailed LoL) But why take away our conveyor belt?? I'd like to see the 'professional' Walmart checkout associates process a whole cart full of items at a 8' x 4' space with no belt and basically a night stand to put things on before scanning. Do people steal more things when you give them a conveyor belt? I'd like to hear the reasoning. And the new grand opening doesn't bother me. But pick a new location for items and stick with it! Seems like stuff moves to new locations every week now. I used to find everything I needed - now, I start my Amazon shopping list while still at Walmart. Hand soap? Guess they don't sell that any more. I'll only deduct one star for now, but it's getting pretty irritating. =Original= *Was* a Nice average Walmart in Belton. Contrary to what Paris Hilton says, Walmart sells a lot more than just wall stuff. They sell errything! (if you can find it now)”
“I ordered a custom vintage heart cake for my daughter yesterday and picked it up today. The ordering was super easy and they were quick and friendly too. Let me say this cake came out so beautiful and my daughter absolutely loved it! 10/10 will be doing this again!”
