Let's be real: parking lot is azzz because it's always congested, littered, not in the most wholesome area of Prov and you have to be alert to not get hit by a car walking in/out: not get hit by other drivers driving in/out because no one gives a fuhhh: then not run someone over because they don't give a fuhhh about their lives. Employees are not the happiest here and most of the shoppers too. It's a weird alternate reality of low vibrational energy when I step foot in here, so I try not to unless needed. The good: they keep it well stocked and organized. It's Walmart so they have everything, I don't have a hard time finding what I need. What I want to give kudos for is the in app pickup team: they are quick, efficient and I haven't had to wait long for my pickup orders. Other locations like N.Smithfield SUCK for app pickup timing. This Walmart location doesn't keep you waiting. It's almost worth the weaving about you have to do thru the parking lot w/the lunatic drivers lol. read more

This review is not about the store it's about the Providence Walmart's website. The website is injected with a malicious link that displays an error message "your card is not valid", however a charge will appear on your credit card right away. If your card doesn't monitor for malicious links the fraud will be hard to dismiss or may occur without notice. This link has been active for years and apparently Walmart's IT security team fails to scan their for malicious links. read more

For an Introduction to Tufting class, I needed to bring two (2) skeins of medium weight (4) yarn per color fed from the center. The instructor recommended purchasing acrylic Red Heart Super Saver yarn from Walmart. Fortunately, the yarn was on sale for $3.77 each and I was able to get it at this price. The original price was $4.99, which is still cheaper compared to Michael's and other arts and crafts stores. I had a positive shopping experience at Walmart. There is plenty of parking. The aisles were clearly marked with signs and I was able to find the items I needed effectively. The store was fully stocked and items were organized and neat. read more

This Walmart location is one location I go to if absolutely necessary. No one is pleasant. I went to check out and the young man in the self check out said not one word to be put put his finger up to tell me which self check out register I could go to when I get to the register it was out of service. Another pleasant young man named Kymani directed me to another register and apologizes for being directed to a non working one. I will say the store is clean and organized with plenty of parking for both in store and pick up. The only pleasant experience today came from the association at the check out. Great job Kymani read more

The only reason I came here was because I was in a time crunch and had to pick up a pair of nylons from my son's psychology project. This location is awful. I hate everything about it. It's messy and the other shoppers are rude. Employees are less than helpful. You have to show your receipt on the way out. I had one item with the receipt right on top of it and he stopped me to check it , like I'm going to steal a five dollar pair of cheap nylons. The parking lot is a complete shit show. I'm sure half the people driving through. It are unlicensed. It's a giant dumpster fire and there's a reason why I never come here. read more

The cashier was very hostile and rude. I asked if something my child added to the cart could be put back and she rung it up anyway and bagged it like she didn't hear me at all. Then I asked if I could pay with cash and she said ok, I put my money on the thing hoping she would take it and I counted it before I put it up. She then said I was $30 short I told her I was not and she insisted I was until I had her give me my money back and counted it myself in front of her out loud until she finally rung me out. I will never return here. read more

I started sneezing recently and I decided to stop at Walmart to get a box of Emergen-C. This store is the closest Walmart to our Providence condo, but it's not a Super Walmart. It's a smaller store, mostly clothing and health care. The food section is limited and they don't have a large produce nor frozen food section. Still, for over the counter items, they usually have the basic items and I was able to get what I needed. The parking lot is very large and the cashiers are helpful. read more

Creepier than a haunted house in Salem on Halloween this place absolutely gave me an uncomfortable ick that took a few days to shake. Cops standing guard at the entrance and scattered throughout the store, grimy floors and dusty shelves, all barely illuminated by dark, yellowish lighting. I felt like I had just stumbled into Sam Walton's very own trap house. They did have two of the three items I was looking for and that's what earned the single star review, but that wasn't enough to ever justify my return to this location. I'll drive the extra 10 miles to any other Walmart or pay the extra money at a local Targét before walk through those doors again. Even if I wanted to I doubt the old white man arguing with a cop as I left would make it very easy. No other thoughts or opinions to write about besides a warning of "AVOID at ALL costs". read more

Walmart has a reputation as a low end store, but one with much of what you need in these times of high prices, including affordable groceries. Regrettably, this location is not a Walmart superstore, so even those cheaper groceries are in limited supply here. I can't find many fresh vegetables or the variety of dairy products I can get just a few miles up the road in North Attleboro, but that makes sense since there are only a few refrigerators aisles down the middle of the grocery area. Strangely though, it's also hard to find shelf stable things like whole bean coffee here too (even Aldi stocks 2-4 varieties in a store that's even smaller). While I can understand having a more limited store of food items in a smaller store, what I can't understand is why this store is as rundown and dirty as it is. Given the diverse clientele shopping here (including higher income east side residents, Brown grad students, and workers at the many nearby medical offices, as well as the likely lower income residents living in the store neighborhood), I'm saddened and disappointed that the Walmart corporation seems to have forgotten this outpost prominently bearing their name. Years ago, the North Attleboro store got a makeover; this branch still has awful lighting and awkward aisle setups, and a vaguely unclean unwelcoming vibe. I come here only if I'm at the main Providence post office. Otherwise, the 5 miles further drive north offers a substantially less unpleasant Walmart experience. Too bad! read more

I go to this Walmart in a pinch, but for it's not my top choice of Walmart's in the area. I like to be able to make my trips to Walmart a one-stop shopping trip and this location falls short in the grocery department. The ice cream section is abysmal and that's a huge disappointment, but even basics like milk are inconsistent if you want options other than dairy-based milk. The frozen items are so-so and you can find things like wings, burgers, and tv dinners, but since this is not considered a Super Walmart there is only half of an aisle dedicated to frozen and half of an aisle for refrigerated goods like yogurt, cheese, and hotdogs, etc. There is an open deep freezer, but it is usually half-empty or only featuring 2-3 items. The dry goods sections are somewhat decent and I can usually find what I need when it comes to potato chips, rice, seasonings, etc. The clothing section at this store does get a bit of an honorable mention...they do stock some pretty nice women's clothes. The health and household sections tend to have a good variety as well as the cosmetics section. Self-checkout is usually quick which is a plus. read more

This Walmart is ALWAYS packed- or at least the parking lot is. I came here to pick up a gift for my friends daughter's birthday party. Not only is this store really disorganized but the layout - is also very bizarre. I couldn't find the makeup/beauty/health section for a good 10 minutes. However I have to say; at least today the employees were really helpful. They helped me to find what I needed and I didn't even have to ask. He just overheard me- saying I couldn't find the cosmetics section and helped me find it. I have to come back here within the next few days to get my son's 5th birthday present- which is a 12V ride on tank. The prices here are also not as bad as other Walmart's surprisingly. The tank that I was discussing is $400 everywhere else and here's it's only $300. It's even $400 online! I'll be back to pick it up soon! Checkout was confusing; as lines were everywhere and LONG. There was 20 cash registers, & 10 self check-outs which were ALL being used. Luckily, the self checkout lines went pretty quickly. 3.5 stars- with room for improvement. read more

I go to this Walmart only out of convenience because it is local. Everything is self checkout now and out of all the Walmarts in the state they have the thinnest paper bags. You basically get any condensation on them and they fall apart. If your going to raise prices so high atleast get paper bags like all your neighboring stores. Also almost everything is locked up in the store but no one ever has keys. read more

I went in on July 3rd to buy a small safe and a pitcher. I was asking the young lady to price a couple pitchers for me. This kid, or should I say young man approached me in front of her and tells me to stop putting stuff down that I'm not gonna purchase. Mind you I am wearing a booty on my left foot because I have a broken ankle. I had no cart, so I put my items down next to me on the shelf while the girl with checking the prices for me. I explain to this person that those are the items I intend to purchase but I can't carry them because they're heavy. Instead of offering me a cart like a decent human being Would've, he walked away. He proceeds to return a couple of moments later and try to grab my stuff off the shelf, but again I told him I was purchasing them, and couldn't carry them cause the box was heavy. I actually had to take it from him because he was walking away with my stuff. After the girl is done pricing, I make my choice of pitcher I want, grab my stuff and proceed to walk away and as I do so, I told him as you can see these things were not left for you to put away. I am actually purchasing them. He starts following me and arguing with me. It was all caught on video. He proceeds to wish me a nice day. of course, instead of walking away, he continues to verbally harassed me, so I gave him back some of what he gave me and he comes toward me to challenge me. I told him that I'm a customer, and he should treat customers with better professionalism and he comes charging toward me again, and all the while he kept saying "no matter what happens here, I will always have my job" He repeated this multiple times. In the meantime, customers are gathering around to watch the circus clown repeatedly argue with me. Every time I would answer him back because he was being really rude and I'm not want to put up with that, he would come toward me in a very aggressive manner. A couple of the customers noticed, and said some thing. one of them even approached me and said she witnessed the whole thing and said "You did nothing wrong, for him to treat you that way" and she gave me her telephone number. It was the first and the worst experience I've ever had in Walmart and I have been shopping at Walmart for almost 20 yrs. Thankfully not this particular one. In all honesty, the place is a shit show. The customer service sucks and the people are rude. No one seems to want to help. The manager came over and it looked like I was bothering her. She never offered me an apology. She never asked for my name and telephone number, and when I asked her which Walmart, this was, she told me "you should know this already, you're in Providence" i'm embarrassed to call this my neighborhood Walmart!!! I have tried to call several times no one ever picks up. The kid, (whose name begins with an H) had absolutely no regard or respect for customers. I don't know, maybe he was pissed off that he had to work that day?? Or, he may have little man syndrome?? Who knows? But his appearance was completely unprofessional, with grown out dreads and pants hanging low. Walmart needs to dramatically improve their efforts as to who they employ to represent them. To charge toward a woman with that much aggression and still have a job, is unbeknownst to me. If I had been with my husband, he would've never pulled that on me. I was a woman, I could barely walk, which I'm sure is on the video and I have no Cart. Instead of being a jerk to me, he could've offered me help. But it was obvious he hasn't been trained. I give this particular Walmart less than one star. Signed, One unhappy Latina read more

This place was ok. Pretty much like any other Walmart! It was a bit disorganized (things were in weird sections of the store) and it was hardly labeled anywhere. At least it felt like it. They did have a wide variety of snacks, though, and their Christmas section is AMAZING! So nicely decorated and lots of different things available to purchase. My roommates and I bought a white Christmas tree there yesterday. There is so much to pick from. I wish they had more wall clocks (we were looking for one and there wasn't a very large selection) and bowls/plates. We were going shopping for our new home and it was difficult to find cute things for hosting people! read more

Parked at Walmart in providence RI on their property under their surveillance. I went into the store for one item and came out moments later to men chopping apart my exhaust system to steal my catalytic converters.. Walmart has failed to provide me a safe and pleasant shopping experience, the opposite of what the recording says when you call their number and I am disgusted in there response to help or fix the negligence of their security and efforts to protect their customers from vandalism, and malicious damaging theft. The 3rd party security guard that responded was rude and no help and very unwelcoming. read more

Really? 15 minutes wait for someone to scan an item and tell me the price? Starting with the fact that there was no price on it to begin with. And then the long wait and then the person comes, scan and turn his back and walk away. I needed to chase him and ask him to do me a solid and answer a question. Well thank you so much for doing your job. I don't review a place based on experience with one employee. But to wait 15 minutes for basic help, and then not to get it. That is little too much. read more

This store has good sales and prices cheaper than a supermarket. I just wish this was a super Walmart because the fridge and freezer area are small. Customer service is good unless you get someone who isn't willing to help you find something. The parking lot is a bit scary because people walk behind cars trying to pull out. They could use more people on the registers to get the lines moving a little faster. read more

The Worst Walmart and that isn't saying much. I know stores that are in rough neighborhoods sometimes are mismanaged, but this store might be the worst ever. Dirty aisles, frozen food on shelves, horrible employees, just a complete dump. I know people go to Walmart because it has cheap prices, but look at what your buying cheap crap. THE QUESTION OF THE DAY: WHY ARE THERE 15 CHECKOUT LANES AND ONLY 3 CASHIERS????? Walmart is awful to begin with but this one maybe the worst!!! Thanks read more

I went to Walmart today to get some things and came out and my jacket, my jacket got yellow paint from a pole people were painting without no sign saying "yellow paint" and the two men's were giving me and my friend attitude.I went to customer service and luckily got a 35 dollar gift card for the jacket that was stained of yellow paint. read more

#1 they are never stocked. ALWAYS out of everything including food and when they finally stock it you take it home and its stale. #2. ALWAYS slowest cashiers and only 1 or 2 cashiers even during the xmas shopping season while all the other employees are standing around talking or walking back and forth not stocking or cashiering. ugh #3 and MOST IMPORTANT. I will be filing a complaint with ADA.gov because it is ALWAYS IN VIOLATION OF ADA. the mobile sitting carts are never in working order. My mother got one that was supposedly 100% and didnt get past one isle and it was dead. the other one not charged. This was 10am those carts should be charged and lasting charge of 12 hours for provision with those who are disabled. I am reporting this. read more

If I could give ZERO stars I would.... besides hating this place I have to leave the east side & interact with all types of non desirables!!! Ugh! Never enough staff.

STAY AWAY! Forgive the cliche but if Yelp had negative stars, this Wal-Mart would get a few of them. One of the dirtiest Wal-Marts I have ever been in. The lighting itself should scare anyone away, there are no lights! The skylights provide "lighting" during the day so it looks like a run down abandoned warehouse. This is one of the worst retail experiences I have had just walking around. If I ever come here (which is close to never) I go to what I need to get and walk right out. This is the complete opposite of say a Target where I am walking around the entire store. If Target decided to open up in Providence, it would completely put this store out of business. You can see people walking in who just don't want to be there. My GF pointed out that the Home Depot right next door does not suffer from this debauchery, it is almost night and day from Wal-Mart. I am honestly confused how someone put more than one star for this store. read more

Yup this is by far the scariest Walmart I have ever seen. I didn't think this part of town was all that bad... maybe it is! I don't know about the rest of you but I found this place to be completely disorganized. I didn't know what was what and what was where. The baby section is, for example, split into two different places at opposite ends of the store. This store really needs to get its act together or I might actually consider shopping at Target. read more

First of all, I never shop at Wally World. I came in for an online pickup. Literally, this place is a COMPLETE shit show. Walla who is the manager at the online/in-store pickup center is horribly rude and has absolute zero regard for friendly customer service. She has the emotions of a robot and doesn't budge. How she became a manager is beyond me. Maybe she stuck around for more than 6 months and got a promotion. Horrible. -My experience- My gf ordered a couch online and added me as a secondary pickup but it did not show in the computer as I was trying to pickup the couch at the pickup counter. I had the order number, the date of purchase, the primary contact's (my gf) every single detail of information (phone number, DOB, address, etc). I was able to provide cellphone pictures, emails, date of purchase, date of delivery to store.... everything you'd need to pickup your purchase. However, I was not "in the system" as a secondary pickup person, which is total crap on Walmart's part. Walla wouldn't budge. I tried to get her to speak with the primary purchaser (my gf) on the phone to confirm my ability to pick up the couch. Her response- "Sir, I'm Not Walmart.com". WHAT? NO KIDDING! Where's the customer service? A complete waste of time. I have a pickup truck to get the couch, my gf has a commuter car. Ummm hello!? Do you think me, a bearded 32 year old man would be there to try and steal a $200 pink couch? What a joke. This place sucks. The employees suck. The shoppers suck. It's a cheap ass store. It's the new Kmart. They're going under. Target and amazon is taking them out and I'm so glad because Walmart is a joke. You get what you pay for. That includes quality of the item, the customer service, the environment of the store and overall shopping experience. Disgusting. I'll stick with target who actually tries to please their customers and takes care of their employees and stores. ZERO STARS AND WALLA THE ONLINE PICKUP MANAGER CAN SUCK A BIG FAT DINGUS. This is the last time I step foot in a piss scented Wally World ever again. PEACE! read more

I have a hard time supporting Wal-Mart in general, but let's face it... we've all been in a Wal-Mart once or twice in our lives. This Silver Spring location is the most trashy, most ghetto, most disgusting Wal-Mart I've ever been in. It seems the handful of times I have been in there they are out of stock on EVERYTHING. The employees are rude, miserable and ignorant and let's face it, 95% of their cliental are the exact same way. It's dirty, it's dingy and it smells. The isles and shelves are trashed. Items are tossed in the wrong places. There is no pride in this store. The only time you'll ever want to head to this particular location is if you're looking to raise your blood pressure, get into a fight or possibly get stabbed. read more

"Woe be unto those who have the audacity to bother a WALMART employee, for they shall know scurrilous behavior, and their belly shall weep at the temple of the ulcer" I've wondered if this particular Walmart specifically goes out of it's way to hire ignorant, lazy, and rude people as their floor staff. Attempting to get competent, and courteous help from some of their "associates", tends to make one feel like the victim of a cruel prank. The general cleanliness of the store could be vastly improved. Possibly by interrupting the floor staff from their personal cell phone conversations, or discussions about the Kardashians, or from just hanging out waiting for their shift to end. Mind you, not all the employees are shiftless, and discourteous. I've actually witnessed a small percentage who do their best. However, they appear to be in the minority, and that is a shame. Overall, I'd suggest that folks search for their inexpensive odds, and ends at TARGET.There is enough aggravation in the world, without having to deal with people who just plain don't give a flying frick. read more

#1 - Staff are genuinely nice. However, the morning pep rallies they are forced to take part in make me cringe. Is it really necessary to humiliate your staff by forcing them to be cheerleaders? #2 - The same ad has been looping on the TVs in your electronics dept for 47 years. Please, I'm begging you, change it. I hear that stupid theme music in my sleep. #3 - The Cox pimps are annoying when I'm trying to shop for craft supplies. #4 - Ok, your clothing is decent, I'll give you that much. #5 - I don't have a number five, I just don't like even numbers. I mean, I'd complain about the customers - loud, trashy, ignorant meat tanks - but hey, it's Walmart. I'm sure you hate them too. read more

Oh, Walmart. Every time I visit you, I get this nagging sense of self loathing. But sometimes, it's 4:45 on Halloween. You need candy and rubber snakes. You think, where can I possibly go and get both things in one place? Aw, crap....fine. And while you're there, you could really use some shampoo, too. Why the hell not? One star for convenience, one star for 10 items-or-less get-me-out-of here-ASAP check out lines. read more

Good stuff- always well stocked. cheap prices. Bad stuff- never, ever, not even one time that I have gone (day, night, week, weekend) have there every been any $#@&*$# shipping carts!!! There's always a small group of people standing, waiting, stalking the person who brings the carts in from outside. And the employees? Well today, I heard numerous pages for people to return to where they were supposed to be stationed, and pages for phone calls to be answered. At one point, a group of employees walked past me, and when one of them asked if another had heard the page to answer a phone call, the response was "Line 2 can suck it". Really? So yea, the bad outweighs the good, but once more, convenience trumps my annoyance! read more

So lets start with the good, great selection of products for the home, clothing, shoes, personal products, food, and just about everything for a great price. Now to the bad, if they had any sort of idea what customer service I would be able to give this place 5 stars. However, finding someone to help you in this store is like finding a needle in a haystack, good luck with that. I once end up carrying a 75lb table out of the store myself and didn't get asked if I wanted help till I was about to leave the store. The verdict, some here for a vast selection of everything for a great price, and if you don't happen need help you'll be set. read more

I wanted to ask a quick question to see if they had an electronic. so i called and asked for the electronic department. i was on hold for 10 minuets (i was just chilling at home with it on speaker, so it was fine) and they picked up and transferred me back and forth to 3 different departments and then i said...In my most super friendly bakery check out girl voice, i exclaimed: "hey wait! don't transfer me, i already talked to that department and they transferred me to you" then..THEY GOT SO SASSY! the woman said "we ....are ....busy" so i metaphorically crapped myself. This Walmart is always over staffed but none of them clean or answer phones. read more

Truly a dump. I would guess Wal-Mart spent about $1.00 building this place but I think that would be an overestimation by about 99 cents. This place looks and smells terrible. (Note to Wal-Mart: if you're going to sell fast food, maybe you should invest in an exhaust system). This place is so worn out and beat down that on repeated visits I was (blissfully) spared the "Welcome to Walmart" greeting. ("Welcome to your worst retail nightmare" would be more like it. I get the feeling that the only people who shop here have been sentenced to the place by some retail judicial tribunal. Terrible, non existent customer service. Just a terrible place to shop. There are better Wal-Mart experiences to be had in almost any other of their stores. This kind of awful experience gives even Wal-Mart a bad name. Skip it. read more

Average walmart here with the usual things. This walmart look more like a storage unit than the usual walmarts. I feel like this one is a bit smaller with small aisles.

I'd come back for more since this is the closest one. read more

Despite its size and close proximity to my humble living abode, the complete chaotic arrangement of the store contents, the understaffed registers, and the unkempt aisles make this one of the worst Walmart, in this yelper's humble opinion. I called this store over 7 times to cancel a pickup item and had the phone hang up on me every time. I ended up driving there, only to be completely lost in the maze that is Walmart. Unless there is a crazy deal, I will just drive all the way to Seekonk instead. read more

I cannot rely on this store, given my experience. I ordered an item online for store pickup. I ordered it on a Sunday, an automated email said I could pick it Monday. I tried repeatedly to determine if it was ready and it was not. If I would call, I would be on hold for 10 minutes at a time, and sometimes they would just hang up on me. I called corporate, they said it would be ready the next day. It was NOT ready as they had promised. It's now 4 business days later, and I, nor Walmart, have an idea where my purchase is located. I will not shop this store again or rely on Walmart.com store pick up. This experience was a waste of my time. read more
