I have a confession to make.
I have been trying to locate a new weight bench and all of them are incredibly overpriced.
So I have been thinking of ending my boycott of Wal-Mart, at least temporarily.
But that was BEFORE I saw this.
Nope.
Put an Ad on Craigs list ... never go to Wally World.
ReplyDeleteOr, do they have Goodwill(s) or garage sales in AK?
DeleteOr, what about Freecycle?
DeleteDayum Gryphen! Did you hack the SarahPAC donor list? How many creatures will Lou Sarah recognize? (Lou Sarah frantically waves at her phone as she reads this post, and she starts yelling that her fitness book is coming soon!)
ReplyDeleteI agree: Craigslist is the best default to Weirdmart
ReplyDeleteA lot of times Amazon has products that are cheaper and better made than Walmart plus free shipping. I never go to that hideous store, I have seen worse looking "humans" walking into the one in Greensburg, IN than in that video.
DeleteOMG! I try really hard not to be judgmental... you know, live and let live... but this made me gag! Wonder if all those characters were photographed at the same store? Yikes!
ReplyDeleteSports Authority usually has really good prices on exercise equipment. Probably better quality than WalMart.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to a WalMart for nearly 10 years but from what I remember their prices are low but the quality is not very high.
I was going to tell him the same thing!!!
DeleteI got one there a nice one for $99. plus weights.
Had longer area for bench press (Olympic style) and a detachable leg extension.
When I moved I had to give it ALL AWAY! :(
Saved the dumbells and bodybar.
Also try Alaska or Anchorage Free list (Yahoo) Craigslist (that's where I sold my leg press)
Lots of people have to move and can't take their stuff with them. :(
C'mon Gryph! A quick trip at 6AM (before the freaks are out and about)- grab your bench and run! By the looks of the clientele you should have a nice selection at clearance prices. Obviously these folks don't venture down that aisle.
ReplyDeleteLMAO! for real, no weight benches for them!
DeleteLike sarah...We don't need no stinkin' weight bench, I have TriGger to cart around all day.
I just can't imagine. I guess I live in a sheltered world. This is just beyond words...
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I Never see people like this in WalMart in Canada. Must be a Yankee phenomenon. (of course, I cannot vouch for Toronto...)
ReplyDeletethis is truly beyond comprehension.
ReplyDeletei am trying to grasp what type of mindset is being exposed by this grotesque behavior.
but i am stumped, speechless, baffled and nauseous.
You obviously do not live in rural Indiana.....
DeleteThese all look like the see-o-pee !!!
ReplyDeleteOK, but that music was clever.
ReplyDeleteWhat's with all the fat ass tranny folks hangin' at the wallie world? Most of those folks are dudes dressed up as women. Very odd indeed. I kind of feel bad laughing at them because they are really just messed up people.
ReplyDeleteI thought you had to wear a shirt or blouse to go into a store. guess walmart doesn't count.
ReplyDeleteDarlene:
ReplyDeleteThe song "I'm Sexy and I know it" was quite a meme thing for a while. The group that did it LMFAO, are both kids related to Barry Gordy, from Motown Records. They sort of did this song for fun but it ended up being a hit and they played it up to the hilt. Very privileged white kids from Beverly Hills making tons of bucks off fake hip hop!

I linked this to the roommate, who works at a Wal-Mart. He immediately started going "Yup, seen people like that...and that...and that..."
ReplyDeleteMore lives destroyed at the point of a gun.

A five-year-old boy in Denton, Texas was left in critical condition after he was shot in the head by his eight-year-old friend Saturday morning. According to the Denton Record-Chronicle, the police said the two boys were alone in the bedroom when the older child found a .22 caliber rifle, pointed it at the other boy, and shot him.

HA HA!! That's EXACTLY why I don't shop at Wally World. And their motto is "live better"??!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know much about saving money on sports equipment, I'd buy something used if it's of good quality and if it doesn't have a motor or moving parts. Repairing/replacing worn parts can get expensive. Some items are worth buying new if they have a warranty.
ugh.
ReplyDeleteWe are fortunate that it is too cold to wear most of these outfits in Alaska.
ReplyDeleteWalMart IS the Evil Empire.
ReplyDeleteWalmart is one of my favorite stores. I save a lot of money there. I go at least 2 times a week. And I am not alone, because it is always crowed when I go there.
ReplyDeleteYes, with people like that lady up there with her ass hanging out.
DeleteAHHHHHH!! There should be a warning!!!! I couldn't watch the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteIf people didn't want so much STUFF, they could spend less on a few quality items. Most of the crap at Walmart is cheaply made in China and bad for the environment. The rest you can buy elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteThe characters seen there? I think it's become a thing-to-do to get dressed crazy and shop walmart.
Craigslist is the perfect place to buy used sports equipment like a weight bench.
ReplyDeleteReduce, reuse, recycle.
Holy Freakin' cow, man! My eyes! My eyes! The humanity...such as it is.
