Walmart

One of most people’s dirty secrets is to people watch and have a laugh. This place is a gold mine! Decent prices and average help but one thing can be said… you always have a funny story after going there and you can 90% time find what you need, that’s better the most!

Do store managers read Unilocal reviews? If so, I have one piece of feedback:
RESTOCK THE HAND BASKETS
This store has inexplicably been out of hand baskets since September 2015, according to an associate I spoke to. Another several months back told me that the hand baskets had been stolen, which frankly, I don’t believe. The entrance/​exit to the stores are monitored ²⁴⁄₇. Actually, what I found out today is that the store was down to «a few.» How is this even possible? So now my shopping experience is this: I need to go in for a few items, more than I can comfortably carry in my arms, and way less than what a shopping cart warrants. And now you expect me to wander the narrow store aisles with this cart as I load it up with seven items. As of this afternoon (4:00 p.m.) this store had a sign up about a number of job openings. Surely if this store can hire a bunch of new employees, it can invest in more hand baskets. Or call corporate and have them send a bunch. Something. TAKE SOME ACTION.

I visited Walmart at happy valley. Bought a bike, very happy. Recommend to everyone. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Big variety of produce, reasonable prices. Store very clean and organized.

Would give Walmart a zero if I could. They’re customer service sucks! I called looking for an item and stayed on hold for 10 min before I decided to hang up. So I called back to speak to a manager and the clerk asked why. If your not the manager then just transfer me, I don’t feel like explaining things twice. She them transfers to to the so called manager which takes additional 6 mins on hold to get. This is ridiculous! Shouldn’t have to be on hold that long for a manager let alone 16 min total to roll to someone, probably longer If I hadn’t hung up after 10min of waiting!

I’ve been to this Walmart about 3 times now, and it gets a 3-​star, smack dab average. Nothing exceptional. I’ve had some helpful associates, others not so helpful. The most recent gal wasn’t the most friendly, and it seemed that there weren’t a lot of registers working properly. Oh well, that happens… at Wamarts

Super frustrating! Ordered an item online and was told item would be in Dec 23 (in time for Xmas) and then got a notice it wouldn’t be available till Dec 24^th, and so came in and the online pick up was closed. I asked for a manager and they said there was nothing they could do I would have to come back after Christmas when it was open again. I said I didn’t live here and the clerk said «well you can always cancel your order». Um-okay…way to offer great customer service. (Not!) I don’t expect a lot from Walmart –they pay their employee’s shit wages but I thought at least they would want my money.

We found everything we were looking for-​and more! With Walmart you know what to expect with great prices, and if you’re looking to get a head start on your Christmas shopping or home décor they’ve got you covered. The only improvement is the ladies bathroom could use a little help.

I shop Walmart because they are usually cheaper than other stores and I like saving money. That said, I don’t like this Walmart. They don’t have a great selection of inventory, the shelves are a mess, and is usually very difficult to get any assistance. The only reason I gave it a 3 star instead of a 2 star is I did have a manager, one time, who went out of his way to help me and was very kind.

I used to be a huge Walmart fan but over the years I feel like they have all gone downhill. I came into this location to grab a few things one of which being a star wars space ship from the toy department. We got to the cashier where my four year old son repeated him self 4 – 5 times saying hi! None of which the cashier even acknowledged. That pissed me off! We are trying to create a world of polite people but being in a store where I should expect the employees to actually care about their customers and acknowledge them they don’t. She proceeded to ring up this spaceship that my son chose as part of his birthday present, we had bought 3 others earlier in the week and it rings up and says they can’t sell it. I speak with a front end manager where she says we can’t sell this to you. And I said seriously? I have bought a fee of them just this week. I said if you can’t sell them then you need to go take down the whole display that is back there, she said I understand your concern. Really? If you did you would go take them down. Then I said well I guess I will continue my shopping at target since I bought one earlier in the day there just fine. She said if that is what you choose. Really?! You do NOTHING to keep your customers?! Insane! Then to add to all of that, last week I bought a transformer for my son for his bday. Get it home, he opens it and at that point we notice it had previously been opened then taped back shut. Took it out and it was broken! What the hell is the problem with walmart?! I have bought a few things where I get it home and it has been used or broken and returned! Completely insane! If you get something returned don’t freaking set it back on the shelf! Especially when it’s a dirty coffee pot, or a broken toy that a child is excited about getting for their birthday! So sick of the lack of service that Walmart gives. Me shopping there pays for peoples wages and I expect that me making purchases at your business I be treated at least like a valuable customer!

I’d give 0 stars if I could. I’ve never liked Walmart and the experience at this location today was horrific. We’ll skip over the customer service, or more appropriately the lack there of, no one goes to ANY Walmart expecting customer service, and like everyone else, I went today because I was looking for something specific and wanted it cheap. After waiting for over 20 mins for the second sales associate to locate a key to unlock the case my item was in she tells me the lock is broken and has been for a long time and the management refuses to replace it. Finally the item was able to be retrieved through the glass case next to it. However I wasn’t allowed to carry the item up front myself though it was huge and no way someone was going to run out of the store with it. After paying and trying to leave the store the item set off the door sensors because the woman at the check out didn’t remove the sensor.
So now I’m going to Fred Myers and will be returning the item to Walmart since I don’t even want this corporate focused corporation to have any of my money.

Needed a few things so we stopped at Walmart. I don’t shop here to often but I don’t mind this place to much. I can still find things made in america so that makes me feel a little better about here. It was pretty clean for a Walmart which is why I gave it a 4 but only 2 registers open an all of the self serve were open with a huge line. Most important part of the shopping is when it comes time to pay. Staff more people and the ones that work won’t be so pissed off

Yikes. The weirdest vibe inside. I will never go back. The lighting creates this erie other world energy I can’t explain! You guys are literally repelling people w it.
I felt like I needed a shower after I left… Creepy.
Invest in some Feng Shui. (That’s why we shop at Whole Foods, ya know???)

This Walmart is the lesser of two evils in the Portland area. The only reason being, is it’s usually much less crowded than the Eastport Walmart. The only downside is a much smaller grocery selection.

Bought a microwave here, took it home and opened it. The box had obviously been dropped hard — the microwave’s casing was warped and the glass tray shattered. Took it back for a refund and had to wait 10 minutes in line before dealing with an apathetic teenager in need of a bath. I will not be going back — would rather pay a few $ more for decent customer service elsewhere.

This place is just creepy. I’ve been to many walmarts in my life and this one I do not feel safe at. It’s also not the cleanest one I’ve been too. Granted the guy in electronics knew what he was talking about.

I want to review the pharmacy…
In my experience, it’s the best I the area. Yes, it’s walmart type service but they answer their phones a lot, they rarely mess things up and they don’t hassle me like Freddie’s and walgreens.
As far as the whole store, it’s walmart folks! We know how these places are, and it’s cool I guess. I just wonder how they get their employees to treat me so nicely when they get such disrespect from the executives.
It’s a mystery. What an ethical dilemma shopping here… Maybe they don’t get treated well, but I like to shop where I get treated better, and they treat me better here then at winco and Freddie’s…

This store is beyond the pale when it comes to unclean and almost inhospitable environments. The floors are dirty and the shelves are filled with half eaten food and drink containers from shoplifters.
Above all is the worst checkout possible. The managers are NEVER around to assist their clerks.

I came here to return printer ink because the packet had already been opened and used and was sealed from the bottom. I didn’t realize it until I got home. I called the manager promptly and let her know my situation and she assured me that I could bring it back with no issues. Ok, Done.
I take it in a week later with the reciept and the associate in the electronics department accuses me of using the ink and goes on to tell me that there was no way the ink would have been opened. Well, it was and I was furious with by his accusations! I asked for a manager (older Asian Man) who came over and «allowed» me to return the used ink, his attitude could have been better, he generally seemed uninterested.
I’ll never EVER shop here again, and I will stick to Best Buy for all my electronic needs.

His us a pretty well ran Walmart store. The aisles are usually well stocked and for the most part the staff is pretty helpful. I did see two male staffers arguing outside in front if the store on break about not giving one of them a ride and such, then later in the store back by the camping hear they were still arguing and swearing like a couple on the outs.
Other than that experience the staff here has been pretty top notch.

JUST SAY NO to evil Walmart! Seriously, bad corporation that brings ZERO economy to our country other than the breadcrumbs it pays it’s employees, only because it HAS TO by law. Some say the money they make sits in our banks. Nope, only until the end of the day, where it’s transferred out of the country. Yes, feel guilty about buying things and wearing clothes made by sweatshop kids who are 8 years old and have 3 jobs… JUST SAY NO MAN. It’s so UN-​PORTLAND.
Google «evil walmart» not all of this can be lies. Watch the documentary: WAL-​MART: The High Cost of Low Price. They can’t all be lies, and most is common knowledge. They shut down local businesses by moving close, don’t let our country become USA-​MART don’t do it!
Shop at Winco, where employees own stock, and are paid better, and the prices are equal, or lower to Walmart in most cases, and less are made in outher countries. Or at target, who was just deemed to cost less than Walmart. Half the things I have bought there in the past have broken down quick. I know some people have no choice, but then I see government workers shopping there. If you have a choice, go elsewhere for your deals, rather than feed the evil that is swallowing America whole. I’ll leave the people who I’ve seen in there out of this review, the ones with 2 carts, who evil-​eye you for trying to squeeze through with no basket, etc. No laughter should be had over this matter.
