Walmart Supercenter

Now this Walmart we gave a three because honestly we love the layout of it which we’ll talk about later. But as for why it didn’t get five, in the gaming center when you enter the store, it’s really just a bunch of cheap claw machines. Now you’re probably wondering, «But those are in every Wal-​Mart.» And yes you’re right but for example it doesn’t have Stacker which is a game we look forward to playing in every Wal-​Mart. Another gaming related problem. Do you know the in the gaming section in the back of the store where all the video games are? Yes, well most of those have video games you can test play. This one had one, but the problem is, it didn’t turn on or work. However, the layout is perfect. When you walk in, you pretty much instantly know where to go, produce to the right, make up and hygiene products to the left. Clothes straight ahead and electronics to the back. It’s just exactly where you’d expect it all.
This was written by three friends who have dedicated their lives to visiting every Wal-​Mart in Michigan. I know, it’s a weird hobby but when you set your mind to something, nothing can stop you.
—The Wal-​Mart Whackos!

Walmart is a store I avoid on principle, notably because associates make horribly low hourly wages while the corporation makes more money than Crassus. However, sometimes life intervenes and leaves little choice.
Cue a sudden automotive problem while on vacation, hours from home. The only place in town to get an oil change is, in fact, Walmart. I rolled up on a Saturday afternoon while the rain poured down to match my bleak, aggravated mood. An underpaid and highly charming employee gave me directions to the oil change centre while I prayed my car wouldn’t implode spontaneously and I still carry memory of his friendly smile on that wretched holiday to hell. I pulled up to the service centre and had 20 minutes to burn in this Super Walmart while they replaced my air filter (s), oil filter, and oil.
I credit this Walmart for being cleaner than any other Walmart I’ve seen, including one on opening day. The place really is spotless with few of the marring features I attribute to the «Walmart Malaise.» No clothes lie on the ground, no disorderly racks confound the mind, and the whole place was spic and span. Count me impressed. Through the aisles, everything was stocked and where it should be. Was this the Twilight Zone?
The grocery section deserves credit for an appealing display of food and tidiness, too. I ended up picking up a few staples and breezed through the self-​checkouts. The attendant was good humoured and friendly. Was this the panacea for my horrible vacation? Alas, it was the only day I spent in Petoskey because I cut my losses and returned home the very day I arrived, sick baby, sick car, and tired family in tow. But I’ll say this: the walmart experience was actually enjoyable thanks to a sparkling clean store.

this is one of the largest WM stores I’ve seen anywhere. Beautiful store with everything a superstore should have. Really nice produce section, one of the nicest I’ve been in.
