[QUOTE=Hot Rod Surfer;391600]Wow, I did not know that about Walmart Don!!!

How did you find out about the midnight shutdown???


Well, we leave the shop a lot of times late and need to pickup something to eat and Walmart is about the only game in town at that hour. The first time they shut the registers down I thought something had broken because all the customers and the couple of cashiers were just standing there, waiting for something. After a while a manager came around with a cart and collected the days receipts and closed out the registers.

Being the complainer I am, I said to the manager, "you have to be kidding, you shut down the whole system for over 15 minutes EVERY night?" She informed me that it is company policy to end one days business at 12 and start a new day. However, they were not exactly rushing the process.

A few more times we have been in the store at the same time and the same shutdown occurs each time. Walmart may have cheap prices but I'm starting to shop elsewhere even though it costs a little more.
