Walmart Supercenter

This Walmart is kind of filthy. The elevator smells like piss. They need to sanitize that area. They also don’t have enough stock of certain items that we need. Also, it’s not open 24 hours. Why doesn’t Sacramento have a 24 hr Walmart when we have one in Elk Grove?!

This location will make you question your own very existence in life and if it’s worth completely losing your cool and going to jail over checking someone for their ratchet actions toward you.
Despite the two-​story layout (this location was previously a Montgomery Ward’s) which IS cool, everything else is including the fellow customers are questionable — given the neighborhood.
There are 50+ registers TOTAL, only 3 – 5 will be open during a RUSH. Produce is sometimes bad, employees lack direction. I went there to have ONE HOUSE KEY duplicated and it took an HOUR. Now I know the employee s are there for a check to finance their well-​being, but it’s apparent that this location suffers from poor management.

Shopping for grocerys & cleaning day, but don’t come to Walmart on ElCamino. This store is in total disarray and good luck finding anything. Why am I here you ask? I came in for a few items, but never again!
The only good thing here was my cashier Christina was awesome on isle 19.
Great customer service and bagger.

Best Walmart. All of the employees are awesome and they just do everything you need them to do they like help you out when we need help everybody is helping you out like they help you whenever you need help and I just want more just just got everything you need is got everything I want to more.

This is my closest Walmart, I’m sad to say. Trust me – follow the advice of several other reviewers and only come here when they first open at 6:00 AM so that you can park close to the front doors. You’ll still have to brave the tweekers in the parking lot hitting you up for money but fewer of them, at least. And the store is fairly quiet inside at that hour, too.
I’ve made the mistake of coming here on a Saturday afternoon a few times but only out of dire necessity. Talk about your unwashed masses… jeez. It’s the ultimate thrill ride for people watching, I’ll admit. People come here dressed so inappropriately that you’d almost think it was Halloween. What I find most offensive is the way these people talk, especially in front of their kids and strangers. I am constantly mortified at what I see and hear there. I’m no snob but I guess I was just raised in a completely different society where kindness, manners and propriety prevail.
As for the store itself, I do like the prices and, in spite of what some reviewers have said, I usually find the shelves well stocked and I have no trouble finding what I need. Maybe those complaining that shelves are poorly stocked are those who come just after the busiest times? I even bought my last big-​screen TV here (Vizio) and was thrilled at the price. It’s a great TV.
I have to agree with a lot of other reviewers about the employees, though. The ones working there at 6:00 AM don’t seem to care about how they represent the Walmart brand. Their engagement level also seems so low. You don’t have to make a million dollars to enjoy what you do but that depends so much on your employer. Management could make work fun and motivating for the employees if they really wanted. Doesn’t appear to be the case at all in this store, however, which is sad. If I had to guess, I suspect the employees here are managed through fear tactics rather than praise and motivation.
So many discussions between employees that I’ve overheard are highly inappropriate. If it isn’t the foul language, it’s how they talk about their co-​workers. Do they not even care that customers are listening? I don’t like judging others and I feel it’s wrong to consider oneself superior to others but those employees sure make not doing so difficult! Seriously, Walmart should have supervisors walking the floor just listening — and then coaching accordingly. That is, unless those I’ve overheard ARE the supervisors…

I now and forever will not buy produce for meat from EL CAMINO Walmart! both our pumpkins Erin and Jesse Leboutheller carved went moldy in just two days ! It’s not the first problem we’ve had this happen several steaks, pork chops, avocados, bananas, apples , oranges, potatoes ! The list goes on and on ! It’s not good it taste like crap and don’t get me started on their deli meats 2 – 3 days tops before it slims up ! Walmart has the worst customer service I’ve ever seen too especially the one on El Camino and don’t bother calling them for anything cause they hang up on you and give you wrong info all the time ! Yes Walmart sucks !

i wish i could just give negative review. I went to go grab some mailing stamps, so i go up to the register and ask cashier for it, he goes «go to the customer service it will be quick and easy because we dont have it in the counter» so i go to the customer service area, i was helped right away but the lady says, «we dont keep them here, they should be in the register» and i tell her, they sent me here. then she goes, i will call them and they will get it for you. she called them but it took them fucking 25 minute to get me that stamps. like really, their workers are not trained well, they dont know what they are doing, they had me running back and forth. plus i had very little time, this walmart is always inconvenient.

Honestly amazed how low a rating this place gets. I’ve seen far worse from other walmarts but to each their own. I was able to find all I need, its close by, fast and efficient each time I’ve been in there. Also stands out for it two story store. Always room for improvements but again not the worse I’ve seen. 3 star location.

Definitely the worst Walmart I’ve ever been to in my life, and I’ve been to a lot of Walmarts. They never have anything stocked, all of the food is old and almost expired (if it’s even stocked). The entire store is terribly organized compared to other Walmarts– very hard to find what you need. It’s a really scary area as well and I see some creepy ass people in here. Hookers, methheads, ect. Literally any other Walmart is better

Man this Walmart is a trip! Hahahaha i honestly don’t care for Walmart’s but this one here was actually fun. Not to mention that the shelves were completely empty mostly thru out the store and workers were in the middle of the isles with new product blocking the isles trying to re stock.
Only reason i gave this Walmart as many stars at i did was because the customers were just something else lol man there was hella weirdos! I had to take pictures so u guys could see what i was talking bout. I couldnt stop laughing and thinking to my self, What goes thru their heads leaving the house like that.
Oh the return line was pretty short but the employees behind the register were super slow man they were at a real slow pace. I was pretty impressed how they take the carts up and down the stairs tho that was pretty cool to see, i wish i could of been on the cart while doing that, it looked pretty fun lol. This place was busy unless I’m out in the area and i have to return stuff then i wont mind coming out here and have a good laugh other than that i have no business returning back there. You guys should go and see the funny characters u could see my pictures and see what im talking bout lol.

Worst customer service ever! Do not buy anything off
and expect to return it because it will cause you to be in their store for an hour plus just standing here twiddling your thumbs with no one able to help you.

This Walmart is always crowded and chaotic. The lines are long, but the prices are low. So I guess that’s the trade off.

Two different floors for what?! Very disorganized. Do you really think on a Friday after work during rush hour that I want to take one floor for milk and bread than another for baby food or soap?! I reluctantantly walked into this cess pool of typical Wal-​Mart low-​standard filth yesterday after a meeting. This is the kind of place I double– and triple-​checked to make sure my car alarm was on. I was there primarily for snacks and basic foods like almond milk, bread and cereal. When I got up to the registers in the back (no lines) I was happy to see «organic» bananas put out. Well, in the picture below you can see what I got for my money. I actually felt angry for a moment when opening up these black bananas, because it was all so typical of a Wal-​Mart, but especially this location. Right when I think to myself, «oh, I survived that», I come home to gross produce. Of course!

They do have most of the things I need, so I can’t complain. Besides, the good prices has to come from somewhere. They have to save their cost in some way. In this case, they’ve probably saved on the number of cashiers because the lines could get a bit long, and usually there is a bit of a wait, especially if you go out from the El Camino side of the street. If you leave from the opposite side, there is usually a very short line, so what I’ve learned is to checkout from the other end of the store, and then go the longer route to my car.
I appreciate the good prices. I wish they have even more grocery products. I wish the candies are more up scale, but on the whole it is like any other Walmart. It is okay.

They are understaffed, it appears, I have had to wait in really long lines as they don’t have every cashier station filled and i have spent minutes looking for help in certain departments. Also some of their staff have bad manners– I have caught them bickering with one another in front of customers. To be fair, some at check out have been very nice and try to do their best to be friendly and welcoming. Others, just bland and bored and going through the motions.
It is marginally clean. Not disgusting but not bright either. Looks run down.
As Walmarts go their goods seem to be fine. But I have never bought food there. For me it only works if I know where the item is and go at 7 am and get in and get out quickly. And only when I want that place to buy that opens at 6am and is close to my work and the office supplies are hella cheap compared to Office Depot etc. Otherwise… skip it.

The Walmart Supercenter on Watt and El Camino is the worst Walmart in the entire Sacramento region. There is little to like about this place. Access is a challenge with only right turns allowed into the center, and the parking lot seems designed to encourage traffic and pedestrian collisions. At least the outside is newly painted.
Once you enter, you notice how the interior is old and rundown. Selection seems less than other supercenters with a pitiful grocery section. Even the staff seem to hate the store and working here. I do not think anyone chooses to come here; it is just the best worst option.
The only cool thing about this store is the two-​levels with a unique cart escalator that brings your cart to the second level. I think it is a relic of a previous store and one of the few you will find anywhere. That said, come here only in an emergency. There are many other Walmarts that are much better.

The hell with this place. the employees are ghetto as hell. Very poor customer service. Store is not clean at all l. Expired food on shelves, homeless in restrooms wiping cleaning them selves in the bathrooms… I thought I was in the bay area Walmart for a split second but then quickly realized I want. I’ll be forwarding to corporate.
DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME. GO ELSE WERE

This store is ok. It’s a bit disorganized and the layout is a bit confusing. This makes you have to walk around around bit and since it’s a two story it can be frustrating. If you know what you want and just want yo walk in, find your item, pay and walk out then it’s not that bad.

I am not really sure where to begin here. This place is like a really bad car wreck, in the essence that I STILL shop here, but with stipulations, that 1. I am here when they open and, yea… you know what, that is my only stipulation.
Nothing surprises me anymore coming into this store, between the shirtless men, the women in ill fitting (too small) of clothing, barefeet, people smelling of weed, meth, armpit funk, badussy and trying to cover it up with some cheap ass body spray that is overpoweringly sweet, so all you have is the stench of «sweet stank with marijuana undertones» ugh! Kill me now.
I have had the very unfortunate mistake of coming here during daylight hours (afternoon). It is like you have walked into an entirely different world. Every lowlife and dope feen is perusing the aisle stanking up the place.
When I HAVE to come here, I usually get there at about 530am, shop and then when the store actually opens at 6 I check out, this way, I avoid the riff raff, thuggin and buggin hoodlums & derelicts of Sacramento County.
I am not sure why Walmart is synonymous with an over abundance of trashy people and ignorance, but the main reason I come here, is that they have great prices on my kids school snacks and not to mention the walmart brand fruit snacks are their favorite fruit snacks.
I remember a few weeks back, I had gotten there later than usual (about 10am) and there was this man was standing behind me, and he tapped me on the shoulder and said, I think we are the only normal people in here right now, and I looked around… and I swear we were.
Our clothes weren’t mismatched, our hair was combed. we were bathed.
This store gets worse and worse and worse!
And yet, I still continue to shop there, why? They have good prices and as long as I can get there early, I am okay. But the days I lollygag and don’t get there when they open are the days I want to just kill myself.
So from this day forward, I vow to only go to walmart when they first open their doors!
To be quite honest, I have always had great service from the employees, they seem to do a good job, its really the customers, I think that if they ENFORCED a SHIRT/​SHOE policy it might be a little bit better.
And the cleanliness of the store needs to be attended to, throughout the day.
I mean when they first open, everything is clean, and for the most part organized, but if you come mid day or evening, GOOD LUCK with that!

Even considering there is no open store this late in Sacramento (that I know of) I will never be visiting this location again when it is not daylight.
First of all the employees are extremely unprofessional, like do you all realize that you have a job?! On multiple accounts I experienced a horrible attitude from the staff here. Everyone that I can in contact with was unwilling to help or find the answer to my questions.
The parking lot is scary. There aren people asking for your money everywhere. I wish they had a legit security there.
The place is a mess and it doesn’t seem like anyone is willing to take the time to doc it up.
My whole transaction here was horrible form start to finish. No helpful employees, messy store and dangerous feeling parking lot.
Two stars for prices…
But I will NEVER return to this location.
