Walmart Supercenter

This Walmart, as far as Walmarts go, is simply OK.
To start, Chambersburg Walmart is much larger than nearby locations in Shippensburg, Waynesboro, and Gettysburg, so that’s something positive. Their grocery section is OK, but many items are consistently out of stock (this Walmart is ALWAYS busy). Their baked goods taste like they’re made out of rubber, so I try and avoid them as much as possible. Walmart grocery prices are OK on most items, but a lot of the staples can be found at Aldi for a lower price. A lot of people buy their staples at Aldi and drive across the parking lot to Walmart for specialty items, so I must not be alone in assessing their prices. The electronics department is OK for your basic needs. Their health & beauty products are usually competitively priced, but they’re usually the same price at Target (I’d rather go to Target). I like buying their plants during the summer, which is something Target does not carry. I’ve noticed that they’re better about staffing the registers, so I give them credit for that. The lines used to be horribly long, but they’re working to remedy that.
For the necessities, Walmart is a decent place to shop, but don’t expect too much atmosphere.

We were shopping for a computer at another Walmart. The only one they had in stock of the model we wanted was opened box and re-​taped. We asked if the associate could check another store for us and he called the Chambersburg store. The phone rang and rang and he had to be patched back to electronics over and over again and still got no answer.
When we got to the Chambersburg Walmart, there were 6 associates hanging out in the electronics department (so nobody could answer the phone?). Same issue with this computer, the box was open (but the original tape was still somewhat in tact). My husband went to ask an associate if they had more in stock as we really didn’t want the open box.
The first associate threw her hands in the air claiming to not know computers and pointed to three other associates for him to try. One of those she pointed to was counting money with her manager and he didn’t want to interrupt. The other associate was chatting with what seemed to be a friend of his. The final associate he saw was the dept manager. My husband walked up to him and he was talking to his assistant manager about inventory and «getting dinged» for improper handling of an iPad sale. They continued to talk shop while he stood there and waited and waited and waited…
Finally, another associate came over, took the spider wrap off the PC and let us look to ensure the contents were still wrapped and untouched. This associate was the saving grace of our trip. As soon as she approached my husband suddenly EVERYBODY wanted to help us.
So, two stars for the fact that we did eventually get to buy what we came for and the one associate who happened to remember customers spend money and when you help them they spend more.

Well, Yesterday I went to Walmart and I printed out some photos and when i was paying for them. they were charging me 6 extra pictures and i told the cashier she was charging me 6 pictures extra. She just laughed at me and said «Its just a dollar and a couple cents more» and she didnt want to give me them. So i went to Customer Service and got my money back and spoke with the Manager. He seemed like he didnt care either. Oh and plus the restrooms are DISGUSTING!

Sadly you just can’t beat their prices. However whenever I can avoid going here I do. Checking out is painful. Self check area crowded with some kiosks not working usually and few regular registers open with long lines. Their return policy is great. But the pharmacy staff often seems tired, stressed and rude. When I have money in my pocket, I head to Target instead… I may pay a few more bucks but I have a more pleasing shopping trip overall at Target or Lowe’s.

I really dislike Walmarts in general. Yes, you can get good prices, but if you’re a savvy shopper these days, you can do fine elsewhere.
The Chambersburg Walmart is usually very busy. The parking lot is a hazard to walk or drive through. I always park in the back of the lot and walk.
Store employees are hit or miss. Some are very helpful and nice, while others are obviously there just for the paycheck.
I find that this store runs of of things often. That irritates me to no end! When I actually go to Walmart, I go for specific items and I stock up. If they’re out, I’m ticked.
Visit the restroom at your own risk, it could be a disaster. There’s just such a volume of people, it’s hard to keep it spic and span.
Staff in the electronics department are often useless. A little training in the department would go a long way. We’ve had a couple of good people helping us from time to time, but as a whole, it could be a lot better. Don’t go there and expect good advice or knowledge, do your own research first.
All in all, this is a Walmart. You get what you get.

I’ll keep this brief… A Walmart is a Walmart. At least that has been my experience so far. Anybody find anything different? I used to do all my Walmart shopping here prior to the opening of the supercenter in Waynesboro (see my review on this). It’s a good store. I don’t like the styling of this store as much as the Waynesboro store – but it’s definitely acceptable. I don’t like the parking lot either.
I know my son would give an eye-​tooth to have a Wal-​mart near him. He recently moved to the bay area and says Wal-​marts there are like hen’s teeth (there aren’t any!).
