I'm not a huge fan but I find myself shopping at Walmart for the same reason most people do. It's hard to argue with the convenience (yes, there's a McDonald's in our local store) and those "everyday low prices."
So here goes my...
TOP FIVE REASONS TO SHOP AT WALMART IN CANCUN
1) Free Samples!
On more than one occasion, Jen & I have eaten enough donut, cake, and pie slices to sustain us for a couple of hours. Funny story: A panhandler outside Walmart once asked me for money. I told him if he was hungry he should go inside & grab some of the free samples they were putting out. He said he didn't want to take advantage of an American company. (He was American.)
2) Drunken Tourists
Cancun's Walmart is more interesting than most, on account of the high proportion of tourists, many of whom you'll spot sitting in their shopping carts, being pushed around by friends! Walmart is certainly a great place to buy alcohol. You'll find hundreds of brands & great prices. This is where we buy our (local) tequila... just 29 pesos (~$2) for a 2 liter bottle!
3) Mexican-Owned
Walmart haters can take heart in the fact that Cancun's Walmart is largely owned & operated by Mexicans. On the other hand, Walmart stock recently dropped after they were assessed a huge fine for paying bribes to facilitate the construction of their stores here. Oops.
4) Great Inventory
In addition to the usual Walmart range, you'll find a great selection of fruit (including exotic stuff like tuna, star fruit, and dragon fruit). You'll also find some locally made items, from Cancun beach bags to hats made by our friend Angel.
5) Classy Clients
Tourists aside, Cancun's Walmart has very few customers who would qualify for inclusion on People of Walmart. (Whether this is a pro or a con is for you to decide. Personally, I keep hoping...)
Sadly, I've been to Walmart about 50 times and have not yet seen anyone like this. And if you're looking to spot someone making meth inside a Walmart (like this woman was), you'll have to look elsewhere...
OK, gotta run. I'm off to Walmart to look for samples, and amusing tourists...
