What's...You've described the world I live in well! What's interesting is that a lot of people think we have it easier sitting down in stores. Not so! Our local WalMart piles items in the aisles so wide that a scooter can often not navigate through at all--Mondays in particular (restocking). Plus, as my husband's pointed out, the stacks are so high and precarious even when there are fewer of them as to make it really dangerous for someone sitting down and for small children.<br /><br />Some people have countered this tendency in others to walk around us and then stop in front of us (forcing us to stop) by driving more aggressively just to make it through. I understand why, though I haven't done so (plus I use my own scooter, which I don't want damaged).FridaWriteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03321658097813377806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7125635193860950435.post-12182239326682526202009-05-05T23:35:00.000-07:002009-05-05T23:35:00.000-07:00Walmart is the worst big box store ever for people...Walmart is the worst big box store ever for people with disabilities. Every single one of them I've ever been in has 1950s-style flickering flourescent lights, huge columns in the middle of aisles, narrow aisles, and those huge display blocks that create bottlenecks of shoppers throughout the store. And then there are the really terrible shoppercarts, as you point out. <br /><br />I really like that now, with the remodeling that many Walmarts have been through, that the outside sign now has a big yellow-orange asterik next the store name. It's a great invitation to play the Walmart Legal Caveat Disclosure game. Walmart* (*=disgruntled employees working off the clock). Walmart*(*=handicapped changing room used for storage).
