THIS Elgin Walmart is FILTHY!

by L B.

This place is filthy, has small isles and the staff is pretty rude & ignorant. Agreed with the below post, packs of families are together and you cannot get past them. Stock is messy, stuff just all over the place and YES the place SMELLS! Guess that comes with the clientele/area this Walmart serves. FILTHY place to shop at! Either the staff is lazy, the clientele are savages or maybe a combo of both. The one in Batavia is MUCH neater, cleaner, brighter and the staff is even nice.

Walmart is horrible

by Q R.

I hate this Walmart, the aisles are too small, certain groups of people tend to bring their whole family and you have to squish past 12 people in order to get past the entire group. Staff is hardly anywhere to be found. It smells when you walk in, I get nauseous.

Does anyone really care here?

by Rick M. | insider Insider | Rank: 13,319

I Cannot stand this store. Example of experience. I buy an item in Streamwood, which has a higher tax than Elgin. I go to the Elgin store for a refund because it is convienent for me. They will not refunsd the difference in taxes. Every other store on the planet has a plan to return collected taxes. Not this one. Another example, Walmarts Policy is if something rings up incorrectly, you get $3 off the item (plus the correct price adjustment), or if it is less than $3 it is free. This is WALMART'S Policy. But it does not matter which store employee serves you, they will first attempt to give you the difference in the error back, not the $3, then they act as though they do not know what you are talking about. Even though the policy is posted at EVERY REGISTER. This has not happened once, this has happened more than a dozen times to me since this store opened.

Walmart Burlington

by Caryl C. | insider Insider | Rank: 25,769

The store is fine. It is in a good location for people that live in Waterford Wi. It is not a Super Walmart. And this has it's disadvantages. Some of the aisles are small and is hard to pass people in the aisles. They never have enough checkers at the checkouts. And the customer service desk in not very customer friendly. If this Walmart is to survive, they need some customer service training.

The pharmacy was excellent!

by Sheila M. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 5,415

The pharmacists here were great. They helped me come up with a creative solution to working with my allergic reaction. The first time someone actually helped advice me on what to do about taking medications while breastfeeding.

Okay

by Jessica D. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 1,495

This store is a good place to go to make a quick purchase, especially with the self checkout lanes. I have gone in several times, and they do not have the sale items in stock, which is very disappointing....

More merchandise-low price

by Vijayachitra m. | insider Insider | Rank: 23,306

Walmart is a huge store with all products available at all time for low price. Never buy apparals from walmart, their products are not reliable. This place is always crowded and it needs some good maintenance.

Great Deals

by Shah Rukh K. | insider Insider | Rank: 21,383

Walmart is the ultimate place for good deals. They always have good prices and their products are good too. Although, they charge too much for passport pictures.

No Doubt a good store for selected products..

by karthik r. | insider Insider | Rank: 23,158

As far as the apparals is concerned , i seriously dont rely on its quality though offered at cheap price. Its like only one time use ,hence not reliable. i am satisfied with their other products. I am moved with their returning policy , they accept good to be returned even after 1 month. I appreciate that!!!!!

Equipment

by Anonymous

Not too much variety but the basics. Accessory equipment for working out, not your total workout gym. Cheap stuff but does the job. Mats, workout balls, free weights, etc. Staff is freindly but not knowledgable in this area.

Service

by Anonymous

Walmart is one of my favorite stores to go to because they offer the best prices on everything. The store itself is not all that orderly and clean but it gets very busy in there. I have been to more than one location in the Chicagoland area and it's a pretty consistent business. My only complaint would be that the lines are always way too long. Also they don't have the best return policy. You always have to have your receipt, even for an exchange. Most other stores will let you do an exchange or get a store credit without a receipt.

PROS: Great prices
CONS: Slow lines
