This ain't no Walmart Super-center, but its pretty damn good. It has a large parking lot, the store isn't over crowded with goods. The staff are friendly and try to be as helpful as they can. That being said, it's Walmart. Nothing fancy but reasonable prices and selection!

Ok, I know it's a wal-mart, I know it's evil, but I also know how much my tuition costs. Get that lowered and then we'll talk about what a horrible person I am for shopping at satan's department store.
You could go in here and buy some obscure name brand bread for two dollars, or some shoddy pants that are guaranteed to rip in the crotchial area after the first couple wearings. In my opinion, the fabric/craft section is the only area that's sort-of worth visiting. They've got an ok selection, but their 'low price' policy doesn't transfer to this section for some reason. They do have some ok craft paints at low prices, and a few cheap notions.
I heard a rumor that Wal-mart is phasing out all of its craft/fabric sections for some reason. So... enjoy it while it lasts? -

This is my fave Walmart location in all of HFax- not is it conveniently located pretty near to me, but it's also quite big, open later than some other stores, and it's one of the few places I know of that stocks everything from groceries to electronics, sporting goods to hardware n' automotive. Lotsa stuff to behold!
This store is my #1 source for household cleaners and laundry products- the "rollbacks" are usually unbeatable.
I realize it's not the most ethical place in the world, but the reality is, when you're in a bind and desperate for dishwasher tabs and cheap 2ply toilet paper- Walmart reigns supreme as the go-to store.
Service here is generally good, with fast and friendly service. Weekends (namely Saturdays), have a tendency to get chaotic, so if you're squeamish around crowds and lineups at the cash, you'd be best to head over to Walmart during weeknight hours. -

I have no idea why I like this Wal-Mart over others!
I honestly don't know why this is. But I do love this Wal-Mart over others. The staff aren't that incredible but the store layout is nicely done and, like all other Wal-Mart's it has a section for whatever you need.
Let me state for the record that I understand Wal-Mart is not a local business and is an amazing giant in the corporate world. But I am not against it. I will join activist groups to help make it more conscious of its environmental and business practices. But I think there is a place in the world for big corporations alongside locally owned stores.
There. My rant is done. Now on to this Wal-Mart. The section that I believe needs the most improvement is their childrens section. They have the basic needs for parents with babies but I just wish they had a wider, cheaper selection of good quality products. They could also lower their prices a bit in the electronic section but I always tend to find a deal on computer accessories.
One thing many might forget about Wal-Mart that I feel is a nice, big bonus, is their parking lot. Its not just a large parking lot but it is placed right near the Metro Transit Mumford Terminal. Which means you can park your car for the day and take the bus to work which saves you money in gas and downtown parking. A big plus when you are on a budget.
Wal-Mart is Wal-Mart. I can't imagine it going away any time soon and personally I am happy for that. This particular Wal-Mart just seems to be better than others. I have tried to find out why I think so but cannot find a real reason. The layout is one of the reasons why I enjoy this store over other Wal-Mart's. When you walk inside, you are in the middle of the store. So it is roughly the same distance to any section you want to go. Other Wal-Mart's are built in a way that you have to walk from one end of the store to another to get to what you want. So that's one reason.
If you need to park your car for the day, buy cheap but pretty good quality clothes, get some inexpensive DVDs or do your Halloween or Christmas shopping, this is a good choice. -

This particular Wal-Mart is by far my favourite. Each time I go in there, I end up leaving with everything I went in for. When I hit up other stores, I usually forget something because I find I'm confused by the lay-outs.
I am a big fan of their photolab. I have gotten the best help from this particular location. I find them to be helpful and always give me great selections or ideas if I'm looking for a photo gift for someone.
The staff are awesome here and It's always neat and tidy.
