C0untZer0 Posted January 1, 2018 at 02:06 AM Share Posted January 1, 2018 at 02:06 AM I started shopping online at Walmart because for a while, it was better than Amazon. I could find almost anything at Walmart that I could find on Amazon and get free ship to store. I'd just pick it up next time I ran errands and save myself the shipping costs. But something has happened, the amount of stuff they have online has shrunk or something and now most times I can't get it shipped to my local Walmart. What is worse, is that somehow Walmart manages to fool search engines so that no matter what I search for - Walmart pops up in the search results but when I click on the link, Walmart doesn't actually have the item I'm looking for. Walmart is just wasting my time. I'm starting to ignore Walmart in my online searches. Walmart's own internal search engine is a mess, their website crawls, trying to lookup a store and make it your home store is a mess - quite a few times I've clicked around shopping (not hitting the back button), and all of a sudden my home store is no longer set. I think they're a mess right now. Its like they regressed. A lot of retail stores are now getting into this game. They're basically transforming their website into a pass-through for other online sellers somewhere. Even Home Depot is doing this. I was looking for cookware and it came up on Home Depot's site. Of course they don't sell it in stores, I mean, its not hardware. They take a 6 or 7 dollar mark-up on the sale but basically I'm buying from some other seller out there on the Internet.

C0untZer0 Posted January 1, 2018 at 02:21 AM Share Posted January 1, 2018 at 02:21 AM Target does it too. I searched for a Lodge 7.5 quart dutch oven and Target shows up in the search results, but for 3 months now - the item is actually unavailable. Target hasn't had it and I'm beginning to think that Target never had the item and never will have the item. i think they're just gaming the search engines.

C0untZer0 Posted January 1, 2018 at 04:04 AM Share Posted January 1, 2018 at 04:04 AM I think you meant to say "May be" instead of "maybe" I'm just telling you this because the other people here at IllinoisCarry.com hold posters to a very high standard of grammar when they're creating posts in the Walmart thread.

brianj - now in Kansas Posted January 2, 2018 at 04:58 AM Share Posted January 2, 2018 at 04:58 AM Man. I leave teh inter webs for 3 days and look what happens. The Walmart thread will be here with the cockroaches as the last surviving remnant of humanity, and I’ll be proud to be a part of it. And I did a Wallywalk tonight. The local Walmart Supercenter is the only one stop shop in the area. Ruger 1911 and 2 spare mags. And a metric buttload of static cling on my cover shirt due to the cold. At some point, I need to go back and do a super ultra mega Wally Walk. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I volunteer for the tough job of looking after your firearms while you are there - since you likely cannot take them. Tough job I know... but I’ll persevere... Congrats!

Congrats! haha thanks I am going to probably sell the common stuff and keep a few of my favorite guns in my fathers gun safe for a few years until I come back.Unless this new company moves its US offices (always possible) I will be relocating to South Carolina or Arizona when I return. On the plus side getting a license to at least shoot rim-fire in New South Wales while I am over there is not that impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
