Our local Wal-Mart is undergoing a remodel, but it is still open. The only inconvenience is that the construction company is blocking off part of a parking lot.
One of the workers came from Minnesota & told me ‘I was shoveling snow & taking care of chickens a week ago’. We bantered about the high winds here in N Nevada. But he seemed to be very grateful for the job. He hinted that many other Wal-Marts are undergoing remodels.
I also noticed in the dairy area that new displays were being installed, and instead of open cooler cases, the new ones had doors on them & shelves, like a smaller version of the frozen items.
Yep, I’ve seen them do major remodels and the store stays open. Wal-Mart is closing to fix plumbing ... LOL ...
