Walmart Supercenter

I am not happy with our Wal*Mart at all… so so many times I have gone in there NO prices on anything have to walk half around the store to find a person or one of those devices on a pole and half the time they do not work!!!
You go to a department and need some help or asst. and no one is in that department and then when you do find someone «OH I AM SORRY WE DO NOT WORK IN THAT DEPARTMENT» I mean how hard is it to Cross Train!!! And the ones that do not work in that department just up and walk away instead of trying to get you any help!
There is a very few that will actually help but 70% will just walk away from you…

This is neither the best, nor the worst Walmart. It, like so many others, is just there.
After my recent visit to the home territory of Walmart, I have a new found appreciation for them. In northwest Arkansas, they have to compete with each other. The Target store in Fort Smith looked rather pathetic in comparison to a Walmart location I was told was the worst in the area.
This store in New Castle isn’t nearly as nice as that store, but people are friendly and there isn’t much else. The good thing for customers in New Castle is that Muncie isn’t that far away, and they have more choices.
Still, if you’re not leaving town, you can survive on Kroger, Speedway, Rural King, TSC, Dollar General and others without setting foot in Walmart. It is nice to be able to find most anything in one location, so that during winter or thunderstorms, you only have to worry about getting from and to the car.

I’m not sure if they deserve 3 stars. I will give it to them though because they have some nice employees there. Some not so much but others are pretty nice. They have a nice vision center. I love their prices and their designer frames. They have a great doctor there and great employees.
The store section is not that great. Their selection blows. The one upside is the fabric, crafts, and art department. Their toy selection is to be desired. They have a PC game selection. Better than most I’ve seen.
The portrait studio went out recently and they replaced it with a poor excuse for an arcade, seriously? They should have a service in there like the other walmarts. Something like Nail Design ect., I don’t know just something else. Or may let a snack place come in there. That’s not my grief with them though. I’m trying to give them a fair shake. Here’s my main problem with them.
Their automotive center. They don’t give you an accurate time. They take people in after you even after you got there first. I was told once that it was based on DEMAND… WTF is that suppose to mean. So I got held hostage at Walmart for 3hrs while they had my car in the bay but was working on cars that came in after me. That is completely unacceptable and they need to get their stuff together. I know I’m done with them. I’m going to meijers to get groceries, hobby lobby for fabric, and anywhere else but there to get things done to my car. And if there is an emergency then and only then will I step in there. Such as its midnight and I need something so desperately from there I cant go anywhere else. They are now on the bottom of my list choice when they use to be my first.

I give Wal-​mart five stars for their masterful ability to single-​handedly destroy the town of New Castle in my opinion. Shame on you Wal-​mart, how do your owners sleep at night knowing that many people believe they are destroying rural America? When I visited New Castle years ago, before there was a Wal-​Mart, the downtown area was full of cool little shops and departments stores. When I visited recently I see that it’s all gone. If you ever get a chance to watch «WAL-​MART: The High Cost of Low Price» on Netflix or from a video store, you will get a different perspective from the filmmakers than the one Wal-​mart puts out there to the public. I stopped shopping there after I saw the movie and if everyone else did the same they would not make money off of you, would close down and then the mom and pop shops would open to serve the community; you know, like how it used to be.
