I really don't understand this hate on Wal-mart.
What bad customer service did you get?
You taking back that ten dollar vegetable steamer you grandma bought you and you had to wait in line for 20 minutes?
Its a fricken grocery store for pete's sake.

Well that's the problem.
The OP gave no alternative and since he called Wal-mart "maggots" I can only assume he would prefer them to go away.
If I am wrong please correct me.

I find myself in a wal-mart less than 5 times a year. I willingly pay more for yarn as well rather than go there. It's just a disgusting cess-pit.

The OP mentioned not shopping at WM. I think the alternative was "not shopping at WM." Some movements that start small tend to grow.
By extension, if enough people (theoretically) stopped shopping at WM, it's influence would wan, it's growth would stunt, and it would dwindle as a mega-corporation.
You do realize that companies *have* in fact gone the way of the dinosaurs?
Of course, I don't see WM going anywhere any time soon. It's far too convenient to far too many people. :/
