    I was surprised at how large the store was compared to the outside appearance. The service was…read moregreat, it was very clean and the selection was fine. This is a small town.

    This little grocery has been around since God was knee high to a frog. Yep, that's a long time…read more Unfortunately, the place looks it. I spent my high school years in this town and other than an expansion, this store has not changed one iota. That's a shame. A little spruce up would definitely help the shopping experience. But, I could forgive the ambiance if the selection was top notch, but it is not. Now, this is out in the sticks and I know that the tastes around here are not sophisticated, but that does not excuse brown and dried up produce. NOTHING excuses that. On a recent trip I found dried up and half slimy green beans out for sale along with eggplants that were turning brown. YECH! The selection of produce is pretty darned paltry too. As far as meats, there are the down home cuts, like jowls, that are harder to find in more city-fied establishments. The meat section is the one nice part of the store. As far as canned and dry goods, again, not much selection. If you don't like the choice of one large national brand or Food Club, buddy you are S.O.L. Lastly, they do have a hot food and bakery section that I have not tried, although folks here speak rather well of it. Sadly, the folks in this town do not have a lot of choices for shopping. Brookshires could make a decision to make a fine shopping destination, but I guess they'd rather let themselves be overshadowed by WallyWorld and go belly up in the fish bowl of life.

    This Walmart is a great store. For sure many people are used to many other stores to shop in if…read moretraveling through or whatever, and it is hard work to work in any retail environment, I know, but I think this store does an excellent job. I get very tired of some people saying negative things about stores that are really quite good. It is true that all employees should take pride in their work and spend less time being involved in things that are not work oriented, and that happens everywhere, but I have never had any issues at this store. It's a small town and offers other services, and this store tries. I'd like to know if those who are so quick to judge, so to speak, have ever worked retail? Complaining is easy when you can't see the bigger picture and yes, it would be nice to see a few other stores open, for the mental health of all people, instead of seeing businesses leave because they can. People need to work and big business needs to do its best to provide that instead of being unfair to communities who have served them well, and likely for a long time. You want more probably, but make do with what is available and stop complaining, they have a great selection, and their selection is up to corporate, and they seem to do a pretty good job as far as I'm concerned and the people who work there do what they are told, and sometimes that's like mission impossible, since some of us know how that works. The key is to stay focused as a worker and a consumer, so stop complaining and do your best it could be far worse so take your blinders off. This store has what you need more times than often, and the people I have seen working hard are doing their best! They are polite and always helpful. People are spoiled...they want this and that, or impose their superficial take on things, and well, most of us are there to shop, not show off and I find food, and the basics, and yes, they have auto service, so no, don't complain. This store is clean, and does its best, and that is that! Imagine what it is like to have to work hard for any company and restock shelves, lifting, pushing, tagging, etc, etc... and all the other things you as a consumer do not know about, so get over yourself, because this store does try, and I appreciate it and so should you. Grow your own apples if you think you can do better, go for it. Be grateful for things, and yes, we need a few more businesses here because the residents deserve that, not another coffee shop, and granola bars that cost $5.00, we need more than that, I can make my own coffee and do! We also need more smaller stores too, but this is a farming area, and big stores like Walmart who provide to this community are really great too, because farmers are very busy people and so is everyone else. The little man, he is the one who built this country, don't forget him or her and deserves a chance too, so see things for what they are, and remember, this store is a nice place to shop so respect it. Thank you.

    As a poster-child of completely mediocre business models, it's hard to imagine a Wal-Mart location…read morewhere any aspect of the experience (products offered, service rendered, fellow shoppers encountered) is noteworthy. Other than the fact that there are very few alternatives in town, meaning it's likely you will see friends or neighbors, this iteration is no different. All the typical stereotypes and tropes apply, including having an absurdly limited number of open registers and a knack for discontinuing items as soon as you grow accustomed to purchasing them. That said, if you want quality organic produce when the local farmers' market isn't in season, this is just about the only place to get it. That alone saves it from one or two star oblivion - if only barely - but doesn't change the fact that shopping here feels more like a chore than anything remotely enjoyable.
