Walmart Supercenter

Frak! Every and I mean every disabled parking space taken! Is there a freakin’ handicapped convention here? Good selection of merchandise but more disabled spaces needed! Jeeze!

It’s Walmart: All the same stuff (from China) and in all the same places. With that constant, some Walmarts do differ… usually by how clean they are; how well the stock is neatly arranged (and maintained); and how helpful the staff is… especially at checkout. Face it… most Walmarts take you longer to check out than the entire you spent shopping (my biggest gripe and obstacle to shopping at Walmart). This location is an exception.
On all three of those criteria… this location fares very well. It’s clean, clean, clean. The shelves and floors are well kept… no stray items. Best of all, this Walmart location actually seems to staff the checkout line well… perhaps even ahead of crowd surge.

The people who work here are nice folks, but there are times when I have looked in every isle in the food dept. and not found a single employee to help; at 4:00 p.m.
Late at night the store is full of customers, but the checkout lines are 10 carts deep, and they never add more open registers.
Produce is rotten, cans goods have expired dates, or frightfully as I have noticed lately, there are NO expiration dates on some canned goods, or on frozen products.
The less the customer knows, the better, eh Wal-​Mart?

This Walmart is a sad place. Lack of customer service because frankly no one cares. In my last visit, only one register was open but she was making change for the manager. My quick purchase added an extra ten minutes. Everyone in this store moves like a snail.
I will not return. The prices seem just as low at Meijer or costco. I will just go there.

I thought this was an okay Walmart, and the employees were friendly enough. Drove from Ann Arbor after spending an afternoon driving between Krogers, Meijers, Targets, Busch’s, etc. looking for limited edition Oreos to no avail. At home I called this location (first time, let it ring for a whole minute and no one picked up). Eventually someone in grocery was able to confirm that the flavors I was looking for were in stock.
When I got there, the first kind of Oreos I wanted weren’t on the shelves, but the price tag was. :(Eventually found the other flavor on display in the produce section. I went to customer service to ask if they could check if the first flavor was still in stock, but the employee said something about it being up to the vendor and that I should check back Monday. I probably won’t because this store is so far out of the way… but at least I didn’t leave empty-​handed.

This Walmart Saline store is better than the one in Ypsilanti on Ellsworth Rd.
We buy our general merchandise such as cleaning detergents, paper goods and some underwear. Store employees are nice and the store is clean.

Typical Super Wally… I found a few Christmas gifts here on Christmas Eve… it wasn’t that busy and checking out was easy and quick. A very good experience.

First, let’s be real. It’s a Wal-​Mart. It should be judged against other Wal-Mart’s, not Whole Foods. That said, sometimes I love going to Wal-​Mart (when I need to get something for the lowest possible price) and sometimes I hate going to Wal-​Mart (when I need to grab one quick item).
Pros: Lots of parking. Low prices. Big store, so lots of stuff.
Cons: Long lines to cash out (or you have to check yourself out). Poor produce quality/​selection most of the time. And, face it… Wal-​Mart somehow manages to attract some crazy people. The last time I was there, there were two guys standing outside the store (in street clothes) loudly selling packs of M&M’s. No signage to verify who they were. They weren’t happy to take «no» for an answer. I saw them walk after a woman who ignored them. Yikes.
I go once in a while. I tend to regret it. As my 4-​year old mumbled the last time I told him we were stopping there, «I hate Wal-​Mart».

This is more about the pharmacy part. Having just moved to the states and the dry humidity my baby son’s skin broke down badly. I went to a young girl and asked her if she had the bath lotion and ointment he’d been prescribed in the UK. I gave her the brand and generiric name of the product and that it was for baby dry skin conditions. She just said she didn’t know and went to ask the male pharmacist. He just looked me up and down and said no loud enough for me to hear it. She came back and said they didn’t have it, no alternatives were offered etc but she said I could try some medical apparatus shop in saline !!! I left the counter and went to the side of it where all the on– prescription and normal stock was on the shelves and low and behold there was a whole shelf of the products I wanted !!! every size, preparation, even a choice of fragrances which we didn’t have in the UK !!!
So it’s like e staff literally do not come out of their little booth and have no idea what Walmart actually sell in the pharmacy, normally I would expect staff to come out and help me find an alternate product etc but not at this store.
I wouldn’t go back there in a hurry unless I was passing and desperate

Come on, people. It’s a WALMART. You don’t walk into the lowest low of retail and expect professional service. As others have noted, this particular store is clean and organized in a way that makes it easy to find what you’re looking for. They lose one star in my book for the location (including confusing road layout) and another for the poor selection of produce, even though it’s a supercenter.

As far as Walmarts go, this one is big and clean. I echo another commentor’s quote about Walmart being like Tequila — best in moderation.
This particular Walmart is clean, but the staff (as usual) are nowhere to be found if you have a question. I’ve generally used this store for the «Site-​to-​Store» pickup. You purchase items online and they ship them to the store for free. It’s been nice to just run in and grab my box, especially when you’re buying big, but inexpensive, furniture.

I have a healthy dislike of Wal-​Mart. Part of it is morally and the other part are the patron. Wal-​mart seems to draw in the worst of the worst in its area. Dirty, disease ridden children, rude and inconsiderate people.
On this visit and every visit before — my opinion is re-​enforced. A child with pink-​eye (again) being dragged along by his mother in the store, was enough to make me turn around and go sit in the truck to wait for my husband to find what he needed so we could leave.
Why people WHY do you go there!!!

I was not happy to learn that Walmart was coming to Saline. I assume it was to take advantage of all that MIS traffic. The parking lot at Farmer Jack’s used to fill with RVs when there was a race.
Anyway, I was avoiding the place like the plague. Then we decided we needed to find another pharmacy. We’re through with CVS, and our neighbor said he uses the pharmacy at Walmart.
So we ventured in on a Saturday morning, hoping to find a squeeze ball to rehab my hubby’s injured hand. We did not find it, but we did find a dark, unappealing space … space … space … space…
Sorry, that was the echo. The floors were very clean, but somehow all I remember is the dim lighting. Is the floor gray in there, or is my memory playing tricks?
I simply do not want to go back there.

This isn’t based on Walmart, seeing as they have good service; but there is a subway inside as you enter, and this review is based on that subway. The worker just assumed that we wanted our subs toasted and we had to repeatedly tell him that we wanted just the meat microwaved. As we waited, he was very rude towards us and he didn’t even seem to care about what he was doing. When it came time to finish the sandwiches, he didn’t even bother to close the toppings inside the sandwich and just proceeded to shove them in the wrapper and the bag. When we opened the sandwiches all of the toppings came out of the sandwich and you pretty much had to eat it with a fork…
I have had way better experiences at other subways and I don’t plan on coming back to this one any time soon…

$$$, nice clean store, and good prices. Wide variety of items.

If I have to describe what Wal-​Mart sells, you should probably be on Wikipedia, not Unilocal.Since you’ll need a description of this particular Wal-​Mart to differentiate it from the others, this place is gigantic and very clean, which makes it about four times better than the haunted post-​apocalyptic Wal-​Mart on the far West side of Ypsilanti.
To be more specific, a clean and large Wal-​Mart is nice to have in our area because most other communities seem to have these giant Wal-​Marts, it’s about time Washtenaw County caught up. We already have several Targets, Meijers, Home Depots, and K-​Marts, I doubt an extra Wal-​Mart is going to suddenly destroy the area.
That being said, I treat Wal-​Mart a lot like tequila. Every so often it’s pretty great, but you make it a habit and it’s going to be bad for your overall mojo. I don’t have any kind of ethical issues with the corporate side of Wal-​Mart, and I’m not politically motivated to dislike Wal-​Mart. I just think it’s a surprisingly limited store considering how gigantic it is, and it can leads to intense frustration at times.
I like a little bit of variety in my grocery stores and a little bit of selection when it comes to specific products like auto parts and computer stuff, and I just don’t find that at Wal-​Mart. I came here one day because I needed some groceries, a birthday present for a friend, and an air filter for my car. Wal-​Mart seemed like the only place in town that could have all of those things, and while I found a few groceries and a good DVD sale, I still had to go to Autozone and Hillers to get everything I needed, and Hillers was selling the yogurt I bought at Wal-​Mart for less money.
Don’t get me wrong, Wal-​Mart prices a lot of their goods at garage sale prices, and if you are buying either movies or video games this place can be outrageously cheap. As an owner of a Blu Ray player, I’m very thankful that there’s at least one place in town that sells discs at a reasonable price. I also find toys and clothes to be pretty cheap here, although I have witnessed one of my coworkers tear their Wal-​Mart pants like a Kleenex, so maybe cheap clothes isn’t always a plus…
I guess what I’m saying is Wal-​Mart is fine for going to a place to see what they have on sale, but it’s a tough place to go to get specific things. As a side note, they also have a Subway in the front of the building, and it always smells like yummy Subway sandwiches in this store, which was worth an extra star in my review.

Walmart, known for cheap and low prices set up a shop here in Saline after years of battle with local residents. A friend of mine was heading there so I followed to check it out.
The building is huge, as big as Meijer, if not bigger! It’s a supercenter, meaning they have grocery in addition to all the other things Walmart carries at their store. This night, this place was dead… maybe 50 cars or so at the parking lot, only 3 check out centers open… it felt more like ghost town…
I went and checked out the prices on the grocery side of the store. The prices on the meat, etc. were similar to that of Meijer. There were few items that were cheaper… for instance, their chicken drumsticks and thighs were like $ 5 per large pack… I know at Meijer, it would be like double the price when not on sale… The produce at Walmart were little cheaper as well.
Walmart I think has competitors beat on the price of alcohol’s. I would say they were anywhere from 50 cents to $ 2 cheaper then Meijer, Busch’s or Kroger. The price of a wine that I like was $ 4.50 cheaper then Busch’s and $ 4 cheaper then Meijer.
For a consumer watching their wallet, I would recommend Walmart. Even though this was my first time there, I think I’ll go back, now I know that the wine prices are cheaper :)
One thing I did not like about this store… the lighting… it was too dark inside! It felt like a gray cloud moved in… more lights please!!!
