You are incorrect.

I'd say... about, like, 1992 or 1993 for that? The first Walmart in the whole area opened May 1992 in Manassas, so then what.

Manassas does not count - Except on their fingers and toes.

The first time that I ever avoided going to Walmart was about 1998.

How the hell do you shop at K-Mart when they have all closed?

I shop regularly at the small one at Springfield plaza, and the bigger one on 236 in Annandale. My only bitch about both KMarts is:

1. They both are too HOT. like 78-80 degrees year round.

2. Checkout is too long. Even with fast checkers, their computer programs SUCK and take too long to complete transactions.
