Your Opinion on Wal Mart Please

I've read and heard stuff about how we shouldn't shop at Wal-Mart with various reasons why....

Here's some of the reasons I've heard about why I should not shop at Wal-Mart:

- they treat employees poorly
- they are responsible for poor working conditions and child labor/sweat shops in 3rd world and developing countries
- they have destroyed American towns and commerce (mom-n-pop shops)
- they represent everything that is ugly about America

What are your thoughts?

Do you shop at Wal mart??
Is there anything that would stop you from shopping there ?

I understand that your gift registry will be at Wal-Mart when you get married. Is this true?
