I guess it depends on what kind of citizen Walmart is in YOUR community. In our rural situation, Walmart offers part time employment for hundreds of our college students. Lots of others who would not have a job here work there. We went through the phase years ago that Walmart squeezed out the badly operated little businesses. Now we have record stores, office supply stores, pet stores and even gas stations surrounding The Store. They have a Fuji Frontier machine, and mostly do good work, but like many minilabs you risk scratches on your negs. The problem is that they, while not the only lab in town are the busiest. They have a nice selection of film, and cameras. I use their competitors, especially for hardware, because I can find higher quality mechandise there, and they ALWAYS say "Thanks for the business."

Now that camera stores are digi-marts, it's kinda hard to get film, at least around here. (And the same could be said for local hardware stores, etc.) Ken
