So, I can assume that it might be a little too risky to go ask the pimply faced kid behind the gun counter if they have any "CHL Specials"?
CHECK - taking a 2yr old daughter to the mens room twice has to be a valid substitute all the while a 6 yr old is crowded in the stall with us.300shooter wrote:I took this from another site and added to it abit
1) You must park your vehicle at least 50 yards from the entrance of a regular WallyWorld (75 yards for a SuperCenter.) As you head for the entrance, you must perform a scan of the area including checking under parked vehicles for BG’s (Bad Guys.) Remember, grandma in an electric wheelchair is not a drive-by threat.
CHECK
1A). Upon exiting car, surrepititiously adjust sidearm. Now don't touch it again unless your pants are about to fall off. Then tighten your belt
CHECK
2) You MUST drive the shopping cart. No substitutes are allowed. Negotiating aisles full of screaming kids dropping cans of Chef Boyardee while Mom is on the cell phone and trying the latest Rosie O’Donnell Makeup & Fragrances is a good test of patience and self-control.
CHECK - Even took the 6 yr old son and 2 yr old daughter with me.
3) No quickies! Your stay at WallyWorld must last no less than 45 minutes. You can hang out in automotive and even double check the Rapala lures to see what’s new to kill an allotted rest time of 10 minutes. The rest of the time you must be on the move. An exception is made if you are with your significant other and she goes for the White Sale madness. You must park, wait and be ready to back your mate if things get hairy with the pillow throws or allergenic bedspreads.
CHECK (I think) Did not take the wife but chased the kids up and down the toy isle...does it count if my son was fighting another kid for the last red Power Ranger?
4) You are gonna buy stuff so pick items from the top and bottom shelves to test your cover garment. Your mate can assist you and point out any deficiencies. If you are alone and store security or the cops have not arrived by the time you check out, you passed this test.
CHECK - bought 300 rounds of WWB, 9mm for just over $50. Which I managed to carry around single bagged worring the whole time the bag would tear and I would have 300 rounds rolling around the isle. Crawled on the floor to get the 2 yr old out of the clothing racks and reached to get toys off the top shelf with no panic from the desperate housewives with children.
5) Check out: make sure you choose the busiest register. People will stand in close proximity and you must bear it with patience and avoiding contact. Beware of the people suddenly remembering a forgotten item and sending their mates to fetch it. They usually will brush against you on the way to get it.
CHECK - THEY WERE ALL BUSY, what Walmart have you been to that they are not?
6) Meal Time! If your WallyWorld serves Nachos, go ahead and get yourself a big serving of the suckers and wash it down with a Sam’s cola. If McD’s is the choice at the premises, get fries, onion rings, apple pie and a large Coke. ALL MEALS MUST BE CONSUMED ON SITE! No To-Go’s or you will be disqualified.
CHECK - Ok, no Onion rings but, Chicken nuggets that come in the Mickey D's HAPPY MEAL look like nachos and are just as crunchy, they have dipping sauce, does that count?
7) When you leave, repeat the scanning of the parking lot. Remember that now you are also dealing with a shopping cart that rattles like and old train and wants to go right all the time. Do not lose track of your surroundings because of this. If you have a car, open the trunk and introduce all your bags while facing outwards. Pick up Trucks: lower the tailgate and do the same. Keep scanning, you never know where the BG’s might be.
CHECK
8) REMEMBER: Yellow lights = WallyWorld Security. Red Lights = Cops.
CHECK - offered to help jump start the Security car but they had it covered.
9) - Make test fall on floor in busiest area - near register or anywhere crowded. See if concealment can still be maintained. If you lose that then go back to GO and do NOT collect $200
CHECK - No fall but chasing the kids had me up, down and side ways and at one point running after one while carrying the other one - maintained concealment except for the Ouch - daddy, what is that poking my leg?
10) Restroom break (even if you don't have to go), go through the motions, figure out what your going to do with your gun, while sitting on the commode
Carded for ammo?? Why would they do that? Were you in Texas? The walmart here in Alvin usually has a couple guys working in the Sporting goods section and they seem very knowledgeable. Never give me a hassle and let em play with the rifles on several occasions.glocklvr wrote:So, I can assume that it might be a little too risky to go ask the pimply faced kid behind the gun counter if they have any "CHL Specials"?
I got carded for ammo by the cashier 1 day and showed them my CHL because it is in the fromt of my wallet with my DL behind it. I got a really funny look then she asked to see my DL.
and Some Walmarts card everyone. So, as to not profile and have a record of everyone. One of our 4 locals do it everytime.seamusTX wrote:You have to be at least 21 to buy hangun ammo and 18 for any ammo. If you don't look 21 ...rx9790 wrote:Carded for ammo?? Why would they do that?
