Yesterday me and my friends were bored, so we went to the closest Wal-Mart which is an hour drive from here. The Wal-Mart closes at 10 pm, we were arrived at around 9:45 pm. First thing we do is go into the electronics dept. Look at cds a bit and movies, my friend gets a Pink Floyd album, then I realized Super Smash Brothers Brawl is out, so I decided to pick it up.. I go to the electronics counter, there's no one.. I wait a bit, no one comes.. so I go look around a bit not too far from the dept. and when FINALY an employe arrives she tells me, you know the store is closing, so I ask, well can you unlock the window (for games) so I can get a game, and she says no ! *** is up with you ! it's 10:01, my friend still manages to buy his cd but with your outstanding customer service she can't put a key in a lock and turn it ? I wasted 20$ of gas for THIS..

2. You were bored, and the best thing you could come up with is to roadtrip to Walmart...
3. Your Walmarts aren't open 24 hours...
Wow. I thought I lived in the sticks.

Sure I do... but when you feel like payer 99.99$ for a video game, 1000$ for a MIM Fender, 799$ for a Playstation 3, well... it's sad..
edit: oh and that MIM Fender, you actually have to order it 'cause they won't have it in stock.

Also, to the OP, how much does real-estate run in Hurst? I figure that being an hour's drive away from the closest Wal Mart would be a pretty good thing in my books...
