East coast here. We had UNCLAIMED FREIGHT (their commercials just screamed it over and over again)

One went into the old Walmart after they built the Walmart Supercenter in my town. Which I believe replaced the first Walmart in the state. So the Buds lived in the shell of the first Walmart in Texas like a meth fueled hermit crab.

Never heard of this store. When Walmarts went up in my area of SoCal in the mid 90s, they eventually moved out of the city and into an unincorporated area of the county 10-15 years later. I never saw an old wal mart get turned into anything except rubble, which generally took another 15 years.

I spent a summer in the late 90s getting up early and outrunning "garage sale grandmas" to the discount bin and getting all kinds of cool stuff: fishing reels, r/C cars, and even a Skil branded drill I still use to this day...
The old women complained to the manager that we were getting all the good stuff they made us (the teenagers) walk to the back in the mornings.
Still got there way before the old ladies.

I know that all of these look alike but this totally looks like with the trees and everything of the one in my hometown.

This picture is unsettling. It looks like if the Backrooms were outside

This pic was taken at like 5:49 am in late summer. By a 15 year old tripping balls on shrooms after downing not two, but three mad-dog 20/20s.
AM I WRONG?

I want to drink 40s in a parking lot in a mostly empty shopping center now.
