apparently, reading comprehension owns you, and the last few posters above you. of course i will generalize the people who shop regularly at wal mart---they are "generally" white trash, plain and simple. that being said, i will shop there from time to time for things--so what. my wife is the one who won't shop there.
i had intentions of buying a generator at lowes or home depot--maybe sears. the hurricane was set to hit us that night (in 6 hours), i didn't have time to shop all over tampa, since i basically decided to get it at the last second---i stopped at lowe's and home depot, and all that was left were generators in the $1-$2k range--i wasn't going to spend that kind of money on a whim--maybe you're more of a "baller" than me. i knew exactly what i was getting into in buying the wal mart junk, but i had absolutely no other option. i wasn't surprised that it wouldn't start, and would have reacted that way to the manager at ANY store.
