The clientele at 68th/Mem are different from 111th and so on.  If you are TRULY encountering those types of people well then congratulations, those are your neighbors.  The fact that you live among a bunch of mouth breathers is of no surprise to me.

Hardly anyone who shops at 68th and memorial lives within 2 miles of it.

oh wow, I didn't know you worked in the demographics division of Wal-mart.  please tell us some other tidbits about the store, since you are obviously have access to all the data.

I am going to have to go with one of you people into Reasors. I've been there at least fifty times and everytime the store was dirty, selection mediocre, prices outrageous, lines long, and customer service lousy. That's not to mention my perishable food spoiling usually within 48hrs. (and yes I refrigerated)

I will go with you so you can point out all the things you say are wrong with Reasor's.  I will meet you at the one at 21st and Yale, 41st and Yale, or 15th and Lewis.  You pick the day.

Great idea. Say yes Sgrizzle.

Oh, and can you pick me up a couple of items while you are there?

I lived at 77th and Mingo in Estancia (the one where the standoff was the other day) and would shop at that walmart on occasion.  The clientele is night and day between 68th and Memorial and 111th and Memorial.  The store at 111th seems cleaner IMO.  I shop mainly at walmart to save some bucks because for the stuff I need they are much much cheaper then target or food pyramid.  My fiancee is from California where Walmart isn't very popular and Target's are.  I had her compare prices on the basic stuff that we buy (toothpaste, shampoo, meats, bread, vegetables) and Walmart was cheaper by almost 10 dollars.  That money adds up.  Not to mention the supertarget is a pain in the butt to get in and out of because of the congestion.

I give reasors Kudos for 1 being local..and 2 for actually have paper instead of the crap plastic...also for having nice people and actually employing more than 2 people to check out on a saturday morning..they had 10 lines open last time..took 5 mins to get out...also bought some of their fresh baked bread instead of the national brands..still warm and smelled fresh baked....mmmm bread....have not been to a walmart(well I had to buy a battery for my truck) but don't do my groc. shopping there and most likly wont...ill support the local store before the national chain..keep the money in Oklahoma.

I think it is funny how Walmart isn't local but was started by an Oklahoman and is headquartered 25 miles outside of Oklahoma.

We should just annex Northwest Arkansas.  Yeehaw!

Careful there.  Northwest Arkansas just might annex us first.

But Walmart is not local.  I do not see them investing in our community to make it a more liveable and desirable place like I see over in Rogers and Bentonville. In fact, they are building so much retail over there that people who used to come here to shop from there don't have to do that any more further decreasing our retail sales base. They even have a Williams-Sonoma store. All I see them doing here is opening more retail outlets so they can send our money over the state line to Arkansas.  If you haven't been to Rogers in a couple of years, perhaps you should take a little drive Sunday after church.

Uh, Rogers and Bentonville are not by anybody's definition livable and desirable. Have you seen the traffic? It makes Tulsa look good. Of course, I hate sprawling McMansions going up on what used to be pleasant farmland.

The only place that might qualify as having quality development is a small area in Fayetteville around Dickson street. Even that is questionable due to the lack of a grocery store without crossing College Ave. Plenty of bars and restaurants, though!

Back when Ozark Natural Foods was in the area, you could find most anything you needed regularly within walking distance and without having to cross any major arterials. Razorback transit could take you to the hardware store or what have you to get whatever wasn't available nearby.
