Truly. The new Walmart Super Store opened up here on Wednesday, it's huge,
the paper said it was the second largest of their 5100 stores, and has just
about anything I would want. I was there very early this morning and not
many people there at all, also around a mile and a half from me and open 24
hours. First I went to Safeway, same thing, nobody much around, so I prefer
it. If I have any complaints about the giant stores, it's the walking
distance to different departments, but again, not many people blocking
aisles etc.
