I just do my best to make sure I don’t have to.

My SIL goes there on the semi-regular. At the beginning of the hunker-down here in our part of SoCal, Walmart was miles ahead of Target or anybody else when it came to online orders for no contact pickup. That’s just a fact. Others are kind of catching up, but Walmart is still the king.

But go to Lowe's hardware and you'll see a few unmasked-3 or 4.
The worst is my closest feed store where the counter clerk puts on her mask when I come in.
Very few patrons wear masks.
I built the large addition to the building some years ago.

10. At my local WalMart, about 40% no masks among shoppers. Maybe 20% no mask employees.

I am avoiding the place best I can. However, when they came into my small town, they put local stores out of business with their Falling Prices. They are now the only place in town for many items.
