I think most people who would boycott Walmart aren't shopping there anyway. I don't unless I absolutely have to.



I prefer Costco or Target.

I agree with Costco, but target is a union buster to

Target's app is super slick and they've got a great rewards program and return period. I'm not strong enough to cut out any company that's anti-union.

I don’t think Walmart unionizing would necessarily Drive prices up. They’re mostly lower prices are based on volume buying and Chinese junk. Costco is a great example of a heavily unionized company and the ones that aren’t union pay just as much.

So paying more and giving better benefits to half a million workers won't cut into their profits?

I’m not suggesting you should or shouldn’t someone was saying we should boycott Walmart but when you turn around and shop at target, you’re really not doing much better if that’s your goal.

It might put that doesn’t mean they have to exorbitantly raise their prices, might make the executives take a little less. But that’s up to the Walmart Employees to decide. Again, Costco is great example. We have a friend who has worked there for about 10 years makes close to $30 an hour. Has really good benefits and retirement package..

It's not. There's still so much to prefer about Target relative to Walmart.

I’ve never been a fan of target so I can’t say. Occasionally we shop at Walmart, but we do the bulk of our grocery and big ticket items at Costco. We rounded up with the local grocery store and occasionally ALDIs

Wal-Mart already sells at reasonable prices to attract customers. If their costs go up they'll pass that along to consumers to maintain profits. Which means it'll be that much tougher to compete with Amazon. Costco competes with Sam's Club, BJ's, and similar.

Target is a little bit higher end and their prices reflect that. Especially their grocery prices compared to Walmart.

Walmart definitely competes with Costco even if it’s indirectly because it’s a club. Since I buy most of my groceries at Costco, I don’t shop at Walmart for groceries, ever we do occasionally go there because it is closer to our house and open later.

Not a big fan of Target myself. Just a preference over Walmart. Definitely a Costco fanboy. Only interested in Sam's Club for their badass Member's Mark TP.

I stick to the ol' grocery store for most of the food.

I think I was in a Walmart 2 years ago.

I rarely shop there. I don’t necessarily think I’m boycotting. I just dislike the store. It always looks like you’re going into a Third World country.

People spend more when they have better wages. I’m sure profits will be up for a great many companies in that case. A rising tide lifts all boats.

Exactly why I rarely go in to one.

I have to take my wife to Costco with me I end up with things I have no business buying when I go by myself.

Never understood grocery shopping in a Walmart. I’ll stick to Safeway

So in’ true….I can hear my wife now, “ what did you buy that for”

I go with a list of groceries and end up walking out with a big screen TV, a new air compressor, and leather recliner
