I rarely go to Wal-Mart now that I live in the state of Target, but when I did frequent the Wal-Mart back in Indiana, I usually left frustrated and without everything I came for because things kept getting moved around. It seemed like, just when I knew where stuff was, they rearranged things before I came back the next time.

I do find Cub to be relatively similar in layout regardless of which one I visit.

And I don't care what the layout is at Byerly's because I love shopping there and discovering items that I probably can't find anywhere else in the area. It's like going on a really fun scavenger hunt (although I do know where some of my favorite things are). Plus, there's this really cute gentleman that does samples on Saturdays at the store in St. Louis Park. He always wears a silly hat (a Dr. Seuss hat or something in keeping with whatever holiday might be near) and pretty much forces people to sample whatever he's cutting up or spreading on a cracker. I almost always buy whatever he's hawking -- one day it was a spread made from a chunk of blue cheese, a tub of mascarpone and some quince ($7 for a small jar) ... delish!
