Store merchandise which are going downhill in quality fast since renovations!
Very unprofessional mechanics and Manager!
Products (varied — from water bottles, desk chairs, vaccuums etc.): Very very cheap, hollow, engineering issues, and fall apart or break easily made that every week I’m returning an item which means time lost in line-​ups, finding parking, gas used, and my patience.
Mechanics incompetant and illiterate: Took only 4 yrs old brand new car to get a simple oil change that I have gotten over 15 years with the the other car — except as of a few years ago things have gone downhill. I was given attitude for requesting certain oil that works with my car, and then the wrong oil was put in the car (right on the engine — look, see me!!!) and tires pumped to higher than normal even for the season, with some other numerous mistakes. During the past 15 years the majority of the time they check things off on the form but haven’t actually done it. My windshield wiper was broken and they would tick it off as ok.
They don’t fill out the forms ie. tire air etc. They don’t remind you to rotate your tires or any other things to look for until they are worn out etc. being a new owner and having read the manual I forgot since its been a few years. I went in to complain and before I got there, the manager pounced on me, didn’t help me and just wanted to open a claim, and I asked for a refund which happened although with my signature and initials so I don’t sue them that I personally asked for a certain oil and the guy put in what he wanted which was completely wrong.
Three other guys show up (they were vultures and seemed to be highly aware of me even before I could introduce myself… weird…scarey…odd much? and they never gave me my records and receipt — one could not read the form to fill it out so I filled it out. One guy who had been there for 15 years and a new guy fought over who was not going to do the oil change in front of me. I waited and watched. They did not fill up the other liquids as a courtesy and did put a higher quality oil in that I did not ask for… basically you take a new car and damage the engine but hey, let’s save $ on the liquids. The car has not been the same and I wish karma on that section of walmart. The employees are badly trained and not reprimanded. The Manager won’t initial my document but made me initial it.tricky.
Very upsetting and disturbing experience. I choose to go to my dealer and spend the extra $ 20 knowing the car is handled professionally.

I went into this Walmart last week.
On one of their shelves were several PS4’s with a price tag in front of them that read $ 219.83.
When I asked about it, the cashier told me I was wrong and that I should have known that the price was incorrect when it rang up at $ 449.99. He tore the tag in half and said that it was MY fault for not reading the number correctly. (How do you read a price incorrectly? It was the only price on the shelf!)
We asked to speak with a manager. The manager who came told both the cashier and myself that Walmart would honour the incorrect price, and that I could purchase it for $ 219.
When the cashier rang up the item he needed an override, and the manager who came for that told me that they would not be honouring the incorrect price. That it was my fault for not reading it properly, and that I could have $ 10 off instead as that was policy (DESPITE another manager just telling me that the policy would be to match the price).
When I asked about what the first manager had promised, she told me that «He didn’t know what he was talking about», and that $ 10 was the only thing she could do for me.
Walmart apparently has no idea what their policy is if I’m being told multiple things, and badmouths the other managers and blames the customer if they don’t like what the other one gave as an answer.

I had some time to kill before my business meeting that wasn’t too far from the mall, therefore, killed some time by browsing. This was one of the stores that I visited the mall. I came here just to check to see if they had some cheap b-​grade movie DVD’s for sale which they did. Bad picked over titles but I managed to pick up for $ 2 a DVD of a really bad Lindsey Lohan movie where she pretends to be pregnant. Looks like my weekend is set with the bad weather.

The blandest of them all… granted, located in the Capilano Mall doesn’t help either, kinda laid back, that’s the way North Van should be lol.
Located on the south side, going to side streets best way to avoid the traffic/​bottleneck.
Strange, looking for the Epson e-​printer, said it was available online but sadly sold out.

Went in today to pick up something quick. Saw a stock «BOY» tagging items. I say Boy not due to age, because although this person appeared to be an adult sized male, he was mentally as socially incompetent as a young boy! Went over, to very politely I might add, ask him where the item may be found. I said «Excuse me, do you know where or if you even have…» I had barely said 4 words when I noticed he was moving his hand in a circular fashion implying I need to hurry up and ask my question without much fluff!!!
Well that was plain and simple rude. I have one thing to say to you little man, you may have misinterpreted your job title. Although you deal with stock, we are speaking of Walmart inventory not the New York Stock Exchange so I’m sure you didn’t have such urgent matters to attend to that a minute of your time would have caused you such grief!
To Wal-​Mart Management– if you read this, teach your team members some courtesy!

Cons:
Small Parking Lot
Dis-​organized store (Hard to find things) and layout
Less selection than for example the Walmart in Lougheed Mall
Run-​down McDonald’s
Overall I am not a big fan of this Walmart. I used to shop at the one in Lougheed Mall which is superior to this one in terms of organization, layout and selection. I really miss it in fact! McDonald’s should be located by the Walmart entrance NOT at the back of the store… For the love of God, fix the layout in this store. Everything is all over the place.

A+ for the staff here!
They are always on top of the cashiers so that people don’t have to wait long in line. One time there was only one person ahead of me yet a lady came up to me and said she would help me on her till.
The customer service here is way better than the one on Grandview Hwy.

This is more or less a general opinion about walmart not this specific location.
Since im on a budget I find walmart always has something I need at a cheaper price compared to some other stores.
I sometimes find myself using the price scanner to double check prices of sale items. I had a incident once where I bought a item that was displayed with a sale price. But when the cashier scanned it, it was entered in as the original price. The cashier said she couldn’t do anything about it and I’d have to go to customer service. so I customer service I had to show them the sale price displayed and vs my receipt and then go through the return/​refund process.
Staff in general is ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ in regards to friendliness, and helpfulness.
Stock varies, most of the time shelves are full but on the odd day where you see an empty shelf, there is no one restocking or no attempt to restock anyway.
Like any big brand/​box store, it’s what you’d expect.
I’ll give it ³⁄₅ based on the fast they always have something you need at low prices

The Wal Mart in Capilano Mall is a handy stopping place when I’m on a bike ride or after my Weight Watchers meeting. My thinner husband loves candy and there is no place cheaper to pick up 4 packs of his fave sweet snax than good old Wally World. Their selection is also second to no one. Yes I know they’re supposed to be so evil and all, so go ahead and call me evil for shopping there, I’m not going to stop.
Last time I was in the store a couple of weeks ago they were just on the cusp of some major renovations, to expand the grocery section I think, not to «supercenter» size but to make it more competitive I guess. So this spring and summer beware, it will be even more jumbled than it usually is.
I have always received great service, which translates to friendly and attentive cashiers. I don’t think any floor staff have ever spoken to me, not that I see many of them.
I do have one minor quibble, when I enter the store from the mall I have to hunt for the blue shopping baskets. Is it too much to have a stack of them by the mall entrance in addition to the entrance from the car park?

Most of the stuffs they have their just doesn’t interest me because I’m usually not a huge shopper and I don’t have much of a interest on buying a whole lot of things.
I’m usually there to buy whatever’s left on my grocery list like milk, juices, and maybe a few frozen goods if I’m in the mood. If I usually buy frozened foods, I usually go for the chicken wings but they often don’t have the flavors I’m interested in stock though.
Also their place is usually pretty clean except for the occasional spills or pukes though.
Lastly, their employees are usually pretty friendly.

Guilty. I have never been to a Wal-​Mart until I moved here. This place is pretty handy when you’re looking for anything on a budget.
I have found a few nice pieces of clothing hiding among the ridiculously mass-​produced heaps of ugly clothes. I’m here ONLY when I’m in North Vancouver to check on my stuff in storage at a nearby warehouse. So far, I seem to always find something to buy there. They do have awesome low prices on everyday products in everyday brands. That is no lie! I pick up the same Maybelline mascara there for $ 7.00 and at Shopper’s for $ 10.00.
I won’t comment on the customer service, although the change room ladies have been quite pleasant the few times I’ve used it. Unless you’re going in there with a shopping list and/​or you’re looking for something specific, there isn’t usually a need for floor staff. Everything’s labelled in aisles, like every other department store.

I NEVER leave this store empty handed. I dropped by today (New Years eve 2010) and found 3 huge 1000g/​35oz balls of yarn in the most fab color for only $ 12 each. The other forest green in-​progress crochet blanket I’ve got on the go is being built with single 350g large balls of yarn (for comparison). Thank you Walmart!

The one Walmart I actually like to come to, and the one where I actually find things I actually buy. Out at Capilano Mall, I never mind coming here, maybe it is where it is located, or maybe the lack of normal ‘Walmart’ traffic.
You don’t deal with the mad rush and waves of people you have at the one near me (the Supercentre), and I guess due to this, you find the things that are actually advertised here and in stock. Sometimes they leave things in the main walkways on their unpealed containers coming in as new stock. Maybe they don’t have enough people working here. But they are good when this place does get busy, and have most of the checkout tills running.
They also have a McDonald’s in the back, if your hungry, and open till after the mall is closed.

I have bought SO much at this North Vancouver Wal-​Mart since I moved to Vancouver two months ago. Right now, my keyboard is resting on the nice computer desk I bought there. Today, we bought a kitchen table and chairs, coffee table, end tables and a bookcase. The prices were just as advertised: low. It is taking my husband hours to put together the kitchen chairs, as there are tons of screws. But we got this beautiful table set and four chairs for $ 299. That’s a real steal. We also do our grocery shopping there. There’s no fresh produce or meat/​poultry. But there’s a good selection of non-​perishables, refrigerated items such as milk, juice and yogurt, and frozen foods.
