Do not hesitate, Just Go to Walmart!

When we want to buy some foods, some utensil, some decoration, or other goods, where is the first place we think of? There is no doubt that everyone has to think of a cheaper and better place to buy his/her goods. Thus, I strongly believe that everyone know one of the biggest company in the world, so called Walmart. Even if there are many companies like Walmart, why it is the best one in the world? Walmart offers many benefits to us. Walmart saves our time and money, gives us more convenience than others and provides advantages to regional people.
First of all, we can save money and time. Walmart’s slogan is “always low prices.” Walmart is the biggest market in the world. Therefore, it can offer low price to us. For example, when you buy a chocolate, both just one bar and a dozen of chocolate, from Walmart, you can pay less than buying from other companies because Walmart has ability to buy a lot of products from original factory. Thus, it can buy everything in a cheaper price others. Furthermore, Walmart can save our time. When we usually go shopping, we want to buy a lot of things at once. Typical store usually does not have many kind of goods. In contrast, Walmart has several types of goods. It always provide all goods which consumers want to buy.
Moreover, Walmart gives convenience to us. It opens twenty-four hours everyday; that is, we can go to Walmart every time we want. In addition, it provides many parking places for customers. We do not have to lose our time to find parking. Conversely, we can not park a car if we go to Seven Eleven, or we have to spend too much time to finding parking lots if we go to other companies. Furthermore, we can buy everything at Walmart. For example, if we want to buy spare tires and we do not know where a car store is, we do not have to spend much time to find it. We also do not have to drive a far distance. Instead of we can go to Walmart, and buy them.
Last but not least, Walmart provides social benefits to local people. One of all benefits is that Walmart gives jobs to local people. It is quite clear that, Walmart has a lot of branches in the United States. Thus, people can find a place where is the nearest their home to work. They do not have to waste much money for their fares. They do not need to spend too much time in commute from their home to Walmart. Also, they can get a stable job. Moreover, Walmart helps society in many cases. For instance, it has scholarships assisting to poor students, and it has a network about missing children. When people come to Walmart, they can see a missing children notice. They can spread this information to other people. So this is another way to help society.
Opponents of the advantage of Walmart claim that Walmart can provide low quality products. However, this argument is incorrect because Walmart can bring mass consumption and have enough ability to offer same quality products like other store. So, Walmart can provide excellent quality goods cheaper than other stores. Every store wants to sell their products more than other stores because it brings profit. However, if someone want to buy something such as bread, one store price is 2$ but another store price is 1$ the price being equal. Where do you want to buy? Absolutely, you will buy at second store. The Walmart must be second stores easy than other stores because Walmart can keep a balance between huge supply and damand.
In conclusion, many criticisms argue about walmart’s defects. However, Walmart has some of benefits such as saving time and money, providing the good service for their associates, and being able to buy the products at affordable prices in one convenient place. Even though Walmart has some disadvantages, we can overcome all difficulties and take advantages of Walmart. Walmart’s advantages can make more wealthy life than using other stores. If someone wants to buy something, someone can find it at Walmart, and he/she also can get it in a cheap price. Fix firmly in your memory “always low prices” at Walmart.
