I live in Chicago and frequently shop at one of the Walmart Expresses that's closing on Sunday. Obviously it doesn't have the selection of a suburban supermarket many times its size, but I've never had a problem buying normal things there. And with the possible exception of Aldi, it has the best prices in the city.
I'm sure it has something to do with being in a big city.
- rconti 11y agoAldi owns Trader Joe's, where I shop frequently. I LOVE shopping somewhere with only 4 or 5 aisles; so much more convenient than our local Safeway with 15 or 20 aisles that takes ages to walk back and forth as you keep remembering where items are. I can't imagine shopping regularly at a full-size WalMart.

- goodcanadian 11y agoWell, to be fair, I have never really seen a Walmart express let alone shopped at one, but that is part of my point. Near my uncle-in-law's place (greater London area), there are no less than three competing high street grocery stores each with good selection and good prices.
