| Wal-Mart Evacuation Me And my daughter went to Wal-Mart we had our carts Full after two hours of shopping when on the speakers a man says. We are having Electrical Problems please head to the front of the store. Then a few seconds later He says Everyone needs to leave the building now. They was rushing everyone out. I got to the front to turn around to see where my daughter was, and a lady worker asked me to leave. I said Im waiting on my daughter. then my daughter caught up to me. and we went out side. we was all standing outside when They came out even the manager all the workers were already out, They said everyone needs to be atleast 150 feet away from the building then they came back saying get away from the glass windows, so we had to go to the left side of the parking lot , everyone was moved to the back far to one side of the parking lot. Me and Crystal head back up a little and they was telling us No , But we jumped in the car and left. Theres no way that was electrical problems. They would not of had the workers leave the money and their areas like that. Im thinking it was a bomb threat or something. Cops started pouring into the parking lot as we was leaving, now Im waiting to see if they say anything on the news. |

| Yep, that defintiely don't sound like an electrical problem........ but maybe a very good way to evacuate a building without too much panic. Have you heard anymore about what happened? Glad that it was uneventful for you and nothing bad happened to you. (..... by the way, did you have any of the cute Christmas walmart "doggie stuff" in your cart? )
