    what happens when you scan a DVD?
    What kind of scan? Like laser, bar code scan or magnetic scan for anti shoplifting devices?

    still waiting for that perfect MP3/DVD/CD player to come along...

    DVD is supposedly resistant to magnetic fields.

    What did you expect by going to Wal-Mart???

    Has anyone gone to Fry's Electronics? Saw the ads in the paper and man, they have cheap ass electronics there...

    Only prob is it's too far away, a good 35 min drive...

    Screw Wal-Mart. The store is overcrowded and overhyped, and the people who work there are clueless as to the meaning of the phrase "customer service". Never again!

    Has anyone here ever taken a head count of abnormal people at Wal-mart? I'm telling you, some of them are scary [​IMG].

    It's also amazing that Wal-mart is ALWAYS busy. I mean, the parking lot is as full at 3am as it is at 6pm (it's right by our Taco Bell back home). What are people DOING there at 3 frickin' am?

    Humour aside, my last trip to wal-mart was depressing. It seemed like every woman I saw there was pregnant, no matter if they were 13 or 30.

    haven: As much as I hate saying it, I really gotta agree with you on that. I can live with K-Mart and I like Target no matter how white bread, elitist and expensive it really is, but Wal Mart is just unbearable to me.

    It is ALWAYS crowded and, despite their commercials to the contrary, they are NEVER that nice.

    I will say that the opposite is true of Sam's, which I love, but Wal Mart is a terrible place.
