Walmart Supercenter

This review is in regards to the Automotive Department at this location. I bought a set of tires online through
, they were delivered to the store 1 day before the expected date given upon ordering (great on that part). I figured I would try out the auto department to put them on since I was there anyways.
The lady at the Automotive front desk was extremely nice and friendly and quickly got the «Technician» started on replacing the tires. About an hour later, my truck had the new tires on it. I signed the paperwork and went to the my truck and that’s where i noticed the problem. 3 out of the 4 wheels were incorrectly balanced. There were 2 weights on each of those 3 seperated by 70 – 80 of angle (when looking at them). Having worked at a few tire shops in my day, I knew this was incorrect because adding more weights around the rim does not balance the tire/​rim correctly, but rebalances the rim/​tire with added weight to it… robbing Peter to pay Paul kinda thing
I brought this up to the lady at the front desk and she had me follow her and explain the issue to the «Technician» who performed the work. I explained the issue and he proceeded to tell me that he had been doing this for years and has always done it this way. I also proceeded to tell him that he has been doing it wrong for years and it shows laziness when all that had to be done to correct the issue was a simple repositioning of the weight towards the area requiring more weight after verifying for it to be balanced. After this he walked away and I asked him if this was his answer that «this is the way it was done», he confirmed and I told him that he would be hearing about this again. As I started to walk out, another older Technician asked if I wanted them to be rebalanced. I confirmed that is what needed to be done and he said he would do that, but then also went on to state that this was an acceptable way of balancing tires and maybe the programming in the machine had been changed ove rthe years to allow this… Really? How stupid do you think your customers are to believe that from a simple tire balancer? I went home to drop off groceries that I had bought while waiting and brought the truck back about 30 minutes later.
My second trip went much more smoothly. A different Technician approached me and asked that I show him what I was talking about earlier (he was working in another area at the time of the initial confrontation and apparently overheard the issue). He walked out to the truck with me and I showed him, he agreed that it wasn’t done properly. He brought the truck in and all 4 tires were rebalanced properly, I even stood at the garage entrance to verify since you can see the balance machine from the gated area.
Ordering online = Great
Order arriving on time = Great
Service at teh Auto Customer Service desk = Great
Dealing with grumpy old men pretending to be Tire Technicians = HORRIBLE
Dealing with the young man who took care of business = Great
Makes me wonder about the quality of work that these ‘Technicians’ have been yielding for so many years…

3 stars = A-​OK.
I don’t often shop at Wal-​Mart, but when I do, I am in a hurry and need to find items quickly. During this visit, I had many items I needed to purchase for a camping trip. I had verified online that a specific air mattress I wanted was in-​store, but I was having trouble locating it due to the way the store is configured (various camping gear appears in random sections/​aisles, and they are not necessarily close. Unfortunately, the employee responsible for the camping section wasn’t present, so another employee did his best with the confusing layout. It ended up taking far longer than I had time for to locate a tarp and air mattress, although shopping for food items was straightforward. I was also unimpressed by their vodka selection, although I understand that being Wal-​Mart, they only stock the most sold items.
However, I was pleased that they do carry Four Hands beer, as this made up for the lack of vodka selection.
This is a mid-​sized wal-​mart, so the selection may not be as extensive as larger stores.

I love this Walmart. I can find whatever I need. They are fully stock… I love the bakery. They bake their bread fresh daily.

Today’s visit was about the pharmacy. Since January, I’ve gotten my prescriptions here. Insurance. Nuff said.
One of my prescriptions was overpriced (not what I’ve usually been charged), so I asked about that. Matt checked it out, and found that this prescription was actually less than it had been in the past. SCORE for Matt.
Another of my prescriptions had been changed by my cardiologist. Unbeknownst to me, which irritated me to no end. Prior knowledge is important. I was pissed.
But the pharmacist wanted to talk with me about this «new» medication. It’s one I’ve taken for many years, but my cardiologist changed the «version» of the medication and the dosage.
The incredible pharmacist (wearing an SLUE lab coat, and I didn’t get his name) suggested a most efficacious way to take this medication, now that the dosage was changed.
He was so generous, informational, friendly and approachable.
I’m following his recommendation.

Walmart is Walmart; nothing more nothing less.
If you’e experienced one you’ve experienced them all lol… yep 20 possible lanes but only 3 have the «open» light on because they refuse to staff enough employees to cover the typical Walmart crowds. Therefore the wait is excessive, the aisles are less than tidy and the produce is scarce.
That sums up 90% of all Walmarts. But I still go and likely, so will you

Very clean and not busy at all on a Saturday afternoon. Staff was friendly and guided me in the right direction. Got couple of things I needed and was out in about 10 to 12 mins. Probably the cleanest Wal-​Mart I’ve been too.
Got couple of camping chairs which were on sale for just $ 5 each. If you park by Outdoor Living there usually aren’t very many cars parked and the cashier is never busy. So not matter what you’re buying you can checkout here and save yourself from those dragging long lines.
Hope this helps when checking out. :)

This is one of the nicer locations. They consistently carry my go to products for my various day to day needs. They have a good selection of items that some of the chain stores do not carry. One of my favorite items here is the Great Value brand bacon, egg and cheese croissant. Now the lines here are hit and miss. All around it’s a pretty good one stop shop.

I went to the electronics center and was greeted by a gentlemen named Zach who was very helpful in telling me the differences between the several different gamer chairs that they have is stock. I’m buying one for my boyfriend for Christmas and have no idea about them! Anyway, after I made my decision Zach and another gentlemen named Esan helped me bring the very large box to my car and were more then happy to do so. Their customer service really made my experience that this store very enjoyable.

Almost ALWAYS a great experience… minus a few that were just terrible… I would say it is overall a good supercenter!

I would give this Walmart two stars but good customer service when you’re actually IN the store makes it better than most other Walmarts which I would give two stars or even just one.
This has the usual issues where if you call I wish you good luck in getting anyone to answer the phone, and if they do most of the time they aren’t helpful. I’ve called to see if something is in stock, been told it isn’t, and seen it on a different visit when I looked. The opposite has happened where over the phone I’m assured something is in stock, but once there, nada.
Still, when I’m actually at the store and ask for help, employees usually eagerly help me find what I’m looking for, be it a movie or vacuum filter.
Other than that, it’s Walmart, a place for cheap stuff but which generally has terrible parking and fellow customers who won’t hesitate to shove you out of the way if you both want the last of something – someone almost smacked me over a 5 dollar movie once!
I myself have always preferred Kmart and Target, but that’s me. Anyways, you could do worse than this Walmart.

I grew up in a fairly rural area of Texas. We didn’t have luxurious grocery stores with organic, gluten-​free, or «whole life» sections, and the store bakery didn’t offer fancy «European» desserts. We didn’t have Whole Foods. We didn’t have Target. We did not even have Starbucks, and that’s kind of amazing because those are everywhere.
Walmart was what we had, and like it or not, it was a way of life. When I was a kid, we just had your regular ol’ Walmart with household goods, fabric, clothing, nonperishable foods, and guns. It was Texas, remember? ;)
By the mid ‘90s, our Walmarts became super-​sized. We suddenly had Walmart Supercenters that had full grocery departments, indoor fast-​food restaurants (e.g., Subway, McDonald’s), and gas stations in their parking lots. Boy howdy, we were livin’ the life at that point. We finally had places where we could get a pack of hangers, deodorant, a censored CD, and asparagus 24 hours a day.
That was great and all, but other than our gigantic Walmarts, you could say my homeland was practically uncivilized. I was just a small-​town girl, livin’ in a lonely world, lookin’ for a midnight train to anywhere with a Costco and a Trader Joe’s.
Now that I live in St. Louis, which has an abundance of stores from which to choose, I find that I rarely shop at Walmart. However, when I do, this is my preferred Walmart.
First, let me get one thing straight. This is a Walmart. It’s not going to be the most extravagant shopping experience you’ve ever had. Chances are, they’ll probably be out of at least one thing on your list. That’s the traditional Walmart experience, regardless of location.
Here’s why I like this store:
1. Layout
At most Walmarts I’ve visited, the groceries and the health/​beauty department are on opposite sides of the store. I do almost all of my Walmart shopping in these two sections, and until I visited this store, I never realized how inconvenient it is for them to be separated.
At this location, the groceries and the health/​beauty department both are on the eastern side of the store. I can walk in and quickly get everything I need without walking all over the store. This allows me to simultaneously maintain my thunder thighs.
2. By comparison, it’s not very busy.
Maybe I’m just going at off-​times, but this store never seems to be quite as busy as other Walmarts in the area. Parking isn’t much of a problem, and consequently, my visits here are far less frustrating.
3. Great employees
When I go to a store, I typically want to minimize my contact with employees as much as I possibly can. Another reviewer left a one-​star review because she didn’t get any help in picking out a DVD player. I’m sure that was disappointing, but I don’t go to stores like Walmart with the expectation that I’ll receive any kind of help from an employee, other than possibly having someone point me in the right direction of something I’m trying to find.
That being said, the few interactions I’ve had with employees have been great. The employees seem happy to work here, and the cashiers always have been friendly.
4. Self-​checkouts
True to my extreme introversion, I typically use the self-​checkout stations. Self-​checkouts aren’t unique to this location, but I’m mentioning it because not all stores have them (e.g., Kirkwood). These are great if you aren’t getting much, and because people seem to be afraid of them, you usually don’t have to wait for one to become available.
When I first started using self-​checkout stations, they seemed kind of fickle. I always had problems getting things to scan. I think they’ve improved them a lot over the years. If you’ve had a bad experience in the past, I would suggest giving it another go. No, scratch that. Keep going to cashiers so that I won’t have to wait. :)
Rating:
I don’t doubt that people have had bad experiences at this Walmart, but the 1– and 2-​star reviews really baffle me. This is the nicest Walmart I’ve ever visited. I *think* this location is only a few years old, but regardless of whether it is or is not, it’s nice and clean.
I’ve had nothing but great experiences here. Well, except for the fact that they always seem to be out of something. Walmart, you need to work on that in general. Still, I give this location 5 stars. :)

I’ve been here about 10 times, and either have a terrible experience, or a pleasant one. One positive thing I can say is that almost every cashier I have had is very nice and friendly! A couple of negatives are that the carts are so janky. I have to pull out 5 or 6 before I can actually find one with a working buckle to strap down my toddler. Another negative is that on numerous occasions, I have had to wait in line for 20+ minutes because with only 3 lanes open to checkout the lines are backed up to the clothes. Overall, Walmart is cheap and sometimes I want to come here to get things for a deal. However I try to go to Target as much as I can, to avoid these problems.

This was decent Supercenter location. They have a nice assortment of things, but the layout can be a bit of a cluster at times — isles blocked by displays and others ending abruptly without notice, that sort of thing.
Also if you are there early, they will still be cleaning (as expected), but will make no effort to avoid shoppers, you will need to go around them.

Now sure how to review a walmart but this is not a very good walmart! Difficult to find help and not cleanly organized. I like the one in chesterfield.

I came in here to buy groceries and a new DVD/​Blu-​ray player. After collecting my groceries, I head to electronics and began snooping through the DVD players. After about 5 minutes I quickly realized that I had no idea what sort of DVD player I needed, so I started looking for an employee hoping they could help me.
Wrong!
I stood there for 15 – 20 minutes surely looking hopelessly lost and confused, even still, all the employees ignored me.
So I finally called the Town & Country Target, told them what I was looking for and explained that I didn’t know what sort of DVD player to get. They tell me that they have a DVD/​Blu-​Ray player, one that will work for my needs (Wi-​Fi, Netflix, ect), that’s it’s currently on sell and they even put it on hold for me. Psh Wal-​Mart you are so far behind!
I put all my groceries back and went to Target where the employees were much friendlier and actually helpful.
Goodbye Wal-​Mart. I’m off to the wonderful land of Target.

I’ve never had worse service than I did at this Walmart. First off, everyone that works there acted as if I was in their way by shopping. I can’t stand that type of attitude.
When it was time to check out, I walked up to an aisle that was lit up, the cashier was sitting down and was not amused that I (GASP) picked her lane to check out. Then I asked if they gave teacher discounts (I was buying things for my room) and the already SO friendly employee looked at me as if I had just asked her the most offensive question she’s ever heard. I didn’t realize asking for a discount was so unheard of? Not to mention, shame on Walmart for not offering teachers who give them millions of dollars in business.
Thanks Walmart for reminding me why I am a loyal Target customer!

This Walmart is huge. Good location. But like every other Walmarts. place is full with animals in pajamas.

I still enjoy Target, but for some reason Sunday night — late night. I find myself and usually my BFF#2 S.L. wandering around this location. It’s clean, empty and I have caught on the prices drop — low low low in the night time for the next day.
I was able to pick up a HP Photo-​plus Printer-​Scanner-​Copier with wifi for $ 69!!! Hello DEAL! and I picked up a new vacuum, Bissel $ 42 marked down as well.
It’s clean here and like most Walmarts, expect the same unfriendly, odd service and the People of Walmart are always out and about.

i have become a Walmart shopper over Target. They have better prices.

This location has actually moved closer to 141.
This new location is nice. Nice and big, and you can sort of get around. The aisles are wide but the people take up most of it. Get what I mean? And also arrogant people are walking around taking up more space than necessary… So it depends on where you are in the store since it is more crowded in certain areas than others.
As for stock, they do carry more variety than some department stores, but the high crowds of people deplete their stock really fast, so they’re out of a lot of things ALL THE TIME. By the time I walk all the way to the deodorant section, I want to find my brand in stock; Not empty. I might as well just pay the extra buck to get it at a supermarket closer to my store. I already waste the gas money on going a bit farther to get here. NEVER buy their cheap sunglasses (I have had many that break on me in less than a day from simply hanging them on my shirt) or picture/​poster frames (They always are busted up).
I have found things here cheaper than anywhere else, but honestly it’s not worth walking around a ginormous store full of gross people to save an extra buck or two.
