Market was over 36,000 now 33,000, that is not considered being up.

Walmart to close remaining Portland stores as city faces shoplifting crisis

Walmart closing all their stores in Portland is sending a message to other area's that allow legalized theft.

I’m beginning to think that every store should have check out people to look in bags and check recipients like Sam’s does.. so sad people steal.. makes for higher prices for us, who pays!

I believe these stores that are not using real cashiers are losing customers to the internet.

I endorse the Hammurabi Code. i.e. "an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth." Now I'll duck and wait for the bleeding hearts.

I watched a customer stealing at the Neighborhood Walmart self-check out in Colony Plaza. She had a package of gum in the palm of her hand and every time she moved an item from the cart to a bag she would scan the gum package instead of the item. Every item she stole she was charging herself $1.35. She must have had 50 packages of gum on her receipt as payment for hundreds of dollars of goods. I reported this immediately to the manager on duty. They also watched her but did nothing. Finally the manager and I watched the thief walk right out the door. I left my name and contact info if they needed me as a witness but they never called. All our prices increase to subsidize this activity. Shame.

That store does not have security monitors?

The one in Oxford is big with a lot more self check out places. They have moved some sections around. I have never been to the Neighborhood Walmart near Colony.

I find that this little Walmart will disappoint as they will not have many things you might be looking for. Good for quick pickup of common groceries items. Their gas station prices are always a little higher.

Various ladies I have seen a lot of seem to love that Walmart. They live close to there though.

I donated whole blood yesterday at that Walmart's parking lot in a One Bloodmobile.
