Walmart Supercenter

I always love to checkout Walmart’s whenever I’m in a new city. This particular Walmart is poorly layed out. Many of the aisles were too narrow and I was quite frustrated by this.

I relish the fact that somehow, I managed to have a nice shopping experience here despite their clearly bad track record (according to you other rockstar Unilocalers).
I came in for non slip work shoes, scrubs, t shirts and some hair dye for my fiancé. And all of the employees were friendly, helpful and busy yet no to keep that zoo organized.
Their clearances are nice, and for a wal mart it’s surprisingly clean. Although I have worked freight and it did seem a bit scattered, it looked like the doing of customers.
Checkout didn’t seem well staffed, my only option was u scan. I prefer that though. Syoy

A bunch of dip shits work here! I ask 3 employees who were standing around (doing nothing but chatting) for help finding an item. The short one walks up to me and the first words out his mouth were «WE DON’T HAVE IT. «There was a long awkward pause and he FINALLY said it was a joke. I said never mind and he apologized saying he was trying to lighten the mood. MF do your job and quit wasting my time! I’ll give an extra star for the old guy who helped after, but didn’t have what I want (even though the website said they had it!)

If you want to test your patience, come on in! I asked a lady for help and she said she needs to watch this cart. A cart? This cart? Lots of workers but they might not be trained to assist customers.

I was on a mission to buy a Nintendo 2DS from this Walmart on the night of 08÷02÷15. Never in my life did I think it would take so long. I went straight for the electronics department only to be confronted by a family trying to buy a laptop while me and 4 people people just waited. After 10 minutes I asked him if there would be a second person coming here to help since I needed to get going. He said that the second person has left and he is the only one. I felt bad for the guy, he had a lot of stress trying to help so many people. Anyway, he quickly hurried up helping the family to find the right laptop and opened the locked gate so I could retrieve the 2DS I was after. He brought the item up to the clothing area lady (electronics guy had to go back and help the rest of the people there), who held on to it for 3 minutes before calling another lady to give it to a guy at register #10 at the front of the store. Now this was supposedly the only checkout line is is allowed to ring up expensive type items, like my 2DS. I had to wait in line a total of 15 minutes (I started timing it on my watch). The person in front of me had these 3 strange checks/​vouchers and the guy at the register had to verify each item she was buying and the checks, it literally took 15 minutes! and the line was enormous behind me. Have you ever timed yourself in line? Well I did on my watch, try it yourself and you will see that 15 minutes standing in line feels like a lot longer. There must of been only 5 employees in the entire store. (Store #5899)
Next time I feel it would be better if I just go to BestBuy and price match the price of any electronics items I see at Walmart, so i won’t have to wait a long time. The solution is simple, hire more workers for this particular store.

Oh dear, Walmart, where do I start? I have tried several times to have a good shopping experience here but whenever I come you are out of the item (s) I need and the store is a mess. Theres no reason why I should have to pick up items off the floor to manœuvre my cart around an isle. There seems to be enough staff but most of them I have questions for seem to not know the answer or act bothered that I have a question to ask. Can’t you train them properly? Maybe a video they can watch on customer service skills? Maybe have a supervisor look around the store to see if merchandise needs picked up off the floor? I can understand bad days but this location has been a hot mess since its opening! Please take this much needed advice as well as all the other «not so great reviews» and tighten up your store! I dont like giving a bad review but its been long enough and nothings been done.

RUDE, STUPID, UNHELPFUL EMPLOYEES!
A lot of prices are higher than other stores. Done shopping here!

I was getting tired of grocery shopping by my house in north Portland (Freddy’s).
I love Winco, but it’s too far away.
So, I was excited to learn they opened a Walmart just a mile and a half away from me!
I went grocery shopping there and found their normal prices were cheaper then Freddy’s sale prices. And I love the variety.
On my way out I always take a long route looking to see what kind of deals they have. I’ve been there twice (about to go there today also) and both times I’ve also bought clothing items for cheap. Shirts 5 to 7 dollars.
I think a lot of the bad reviews are due to the store being newly open at the time. I mean com’ on it’s Walmart it’s not Macy’s.

I’m very frustrated. Had to do a money gram transfer and so I called last evening and specifically asked what time their money center opens and the person I talked to said 6 am. I walked a mile to the store and found out that they open at 7. The staff were indifferent when i told them what happened. They barely even looked at me. Really bad customer skills. Too bad they couldn’t take care of me early. That would be good customer service.

It’s the classic Walmart everyone loves to hate. That being said I think I have matured enough to realize that I do like these stores. Sure the customer service is terrible, but one can not argue with the prices or convenience of being able to buy everything from one place.

This is the most ghetto Walmart I’ve ever been to, with possibly one exception. Seriously, bring your camera and you’ll surely have photos to post on #PeopleOfWalmart…
The customer service counter is a joke. At first, you might think it’s under-​staffed. Then you realize the untrained CSR needs a manager, at least once, for almost every transaction.
The store feels cluttered and cramped. If you are claustrophobic, I suggest you avoid this location. There is a lot of inventory on the wrong shelf, in the wrong department, or just laying on the floor.
*I have noticed a large amount of clearance inventory here; If you are a bargain-​hunter, and don’t mind braving this location, you could come away with some pretty good deals.

Update: Since my original review, they have added self-​checkout lanes (4). This is SO much better than dealing with the super slow cashiers at this store!

This Walmart is very small compared to other Walmart stores I’ve been to. As usual, you’ll find great prices for most items. Produce was mediocre, but not terrible. Otherwise, your typical run of the mill Walmart.
Bonus: download the Walmart price search app and scan your receipt. The app will search local and national chain store prices in the area for everything you’ve purchased and credit you the difference if it’s cheaper somewhere else. Very handy!

What a joke. This is one of the worst organized/​run stores that I have ever been to. When asking a supervisor for help, his name was Stanley, he rolled his eyes at me and said «whatever». Those are the kinds of people you have as supervisors here? Really?

Although labeled and advertised as a ‘SuperCenter’, it is NOT a SuperCenter. It’s a joke. And their policy regarding returns contrasts with that of the rest of Walmart. I was extremely peeved that I had to drive to Wood Village (I don’t do the ghetto marts on 82^nd) in order to make my exchange simply because it was over $ 25. And like another reviewer noted, the placement of the carts upon entry was done by a half-​wit. Some re-​design in that area is needed. Alas, after giving this location a shot a few times, I can’t find myself willing to continue. If I HAVE to go to a Walmart, it’ll be Wood Village from now on.

This is our second visit to this Walmart. We live in Vancouver. The first time was the «grand opening» to just see it. This time we needed a small coffee maker to take on a trip. This particular Walmart had what we wanted at a very reasonable price. We had called ahead. So, we meandered the streets trying to find the store without a navigation system. It took forever. Once there, we decided to buy some groceries for our son who will be house-​sitting for us. It was 3:00 p.m. when we entered the store. First stop was the deli. We immediately noticed the lights were off in the case, and no one was working behind the counter. We stood there rather dumbfounded, thinking someone might walk toward us from the back room. Nope. Then I notice a worker directly behind us scanning produce codes. I asked her if the deli was closed. «Oh, the woman who works there is at lunch.» What the hell? You mean to tell me the manager only has one person working the deli, and the deli is closed down when she goes to lunch? What store does that? Well, obviously this one does. My wife’s family owned and worked in the grocery business for over 30 years. Never was the meat counter or any department without workers to service customers. What kind of idiot manages this store? We then moved to the prepackaged lunch meat section looking for some sandwich turkey. Most of the shelving was empty. Pathetic! As we began hunting down other items on our grocery list, we found once again empty spots on the shelves or very small selections from which to choose. We hit the coffee aisle, found what we wanted, then knowing we were going to have to have small filters for our new machine (5 cup Mr. Coffee), we hunted for them near the coffee displays – logical deduction, we thought, since that is where WinCo has their filters. Nope, none were to be found. Then I had revelation: Maybe they put them with the coffee makers. Well, I was right. We had to sojourn to another area of the big box store to find the filters. Not everyone needs a new coffee maker, so why not put the filters by the coffee? Is that too logical for Walmart managers and store planners? Maybe so. We finally finished our shopping and did find the one thing we actually came in to buy, the new mini coffee maker. Then it was time to head to the checkout counter. There are 10 of them in this store, plus a few self-​checkout centers. We chose to have a cashier assist us. Only two of the 10 were staffed with cashiers. The lines trailing from both of them were growing fast. The man who pulled up his cart behind us, voiced his disgust that with all the people out of work in this town, why weren’t there more employees hired to man the registers? Guess that would cut into the profits too much, huh, Walton family! He had a valid point. No one was called to accommodate the customers lining up into the aisles with purchases. We vowed we’d never frequent this store again. It actually looks as if it were going through a closeout sale. Pitiful! Either that, or the manager is way over his head. Again, you close the deli so your one employee can take her lunch break? Oh, come on!

It’s Walmart. Nothing particular about it stands out. Service is average, store quality is average, but prices are low. It does the job when you need some cheap basics. We grabbed some junk food and a bottle of wine to relax after our 6 hour drive into the city from Vancouver, BC.

It took the returns/​exchange line a ludicrous amount of time to get through one return. Three people trying to return one item and everyone else stood in line for 15 minutes.
On top of that I go ti purchase an item that Walmart has online for less, and I’m told that the online price cannot be matched in stores.
What? You don’t price match yourself? As if I needed further convincing to be done with Walmart. What an awful company.

This is gonna be complex… I went in here wanting to hate it. I also went in wanting to not pre-​judge just because it’s Walmart. Otherwise all Walmarts would get 1 star on principal. But once every two years (in my case), a situation arises that demands a trip to Walmart. My down pillow died — feathers a flying! I LOVE my pillow and bought it used at a church sale. Everyone online says DONT buy a used pillow… Ok, ok, I get it, It’s gross. These things cost up to and over $ 100!!! So I saw online that Walmart had quite a few cheap options
I think this must be a newer Walmart since my navigation system kept trying to lead me away. Parking was plentiful, but the lot fairly busy on this cold day. The nice man welcomed me as I entered the store. First up, the food section is on the left. So I persused meats, cheeses and the like while listening to Christmas music. It was a bit chilly (but only in this part of the store). I was actually kind of digging it for a while. I sang along, there was room to move, and there are some serious bargains here (although I prefer to buy my food elsewhere). Not too far away was the pillow section. NOT ONE DOWN PILLOW in the store! In an entire ailse of crap pillows.
Well — I’m here now, I might as well buy some shit. Cat pee odor remover $ 3.88 (haven’t tried it yet), a 4 pack of cat food cheap, a 6-​pack of hanes underwear for less than $ 10. There were carts, unattended, just blocking the aisles. Clothes — which are crap for quality– are a mix — some stuff is cheap (got a cotton tank top for $ 5) and some is way overpriced for the crap it is.
Last stop on the Walmart train — crafts. There did seem to be walmart workers everywhere. They don’t ignore you, and will respond to questions, but they don’t seek you out to help you either. So I asked someone where the craft section was. She explained she worked solely for the card company — fair enough. Then I notice a young girl standing right behind me folding clothes… close enough I could have spit on her — yet she completely ignored the entire interaction… Don’t bother to help me when I have distincly asked fo help or anything!
The craft seciton is pretty cool — and cheap. A lot of stuff is cheaper than Michaels for sure, and that’s cheap. Of course far less options (for jewlerymaking and such) — but that’s to be expected. I am always on the lookout for supercheap craft crap for the volunteer class I teach — I just may have to come back for that reason alone.
So — between crafts, a warm welcome and some peppy christmas music that lifted my spirits (until they fell hard 3 mnutes later), I give this Walmart 2 stars.

I stopped by again to return some items that I didn’t end up loving. On my way out I wanted to get a money order. I scanned my card and the cashier had told me the system was down and that she’s sorry. Okay fine so I left and took my business else where. The next day I check my online banking I was down $ 160 bucks by walmart! Wait what I thought the system was down? So I come back and explain to them that the system wasn’t down because it took my money. Well I was there for ad least an hour for them to refund my money. And I feel bad for all the other people that wanted a money order and got money taken out of there account and not even noticing.
