Store Evacuation and $515 Self-Checkout at Walmart ║ Large Family Shop with Me │ Jan. 2019

In this video, Tom and I are going on our monthly date night / Walmart shopping trip. We ate at Old Chicago and then stopped by Home Depot to get some PVC pipe to make some rails for Hannah's new bottom bunk so we can use it for a crib. Then we were going to stop at Joann's to get some fabric for the rails, but the store had already closed. Thankfully, I was able to find some workable fabric at Walmart. While we were shopping at Walmart, we noticed the smell of gas while we were looking at some baskets. By the time we got to the fabric department, the smell was getting quite strong. Apparently, there was a gas leak and the store was evacuated. We waited in the van while the fire department came and checked everything out. Once they gave the all clear, we went back in and retrieved our cart and resumed shopping. As you can imagine, the employees were in a bit of chaos trying to deal with all of the abandoned carts and do a shift change at the same time. We had a hard time getting someone to cut fabric and then it was quite an ordeal for the lady to get a working scan gun to finish our fabric order. In all, about 90 minutes passed from when I first started looking at the fabric and when I walked away with the cut pieces. Not what I imagined would happen! We finished our shopping and then went to check out. It seems quite a few employees were "sick" and left during the evacuation and there was only one checkout clerk in the store. We had to check out our whole $515 worth of items in self-checkout. It all got done, though, and our 3 1/2 hours at Walmart came to an end. (I ordered about $400 worth of stuff on-line before our trip to the store to free up some cart space and mental space for some of the creative shopping I needed to do.) When we got home after midnight, most of the kids were still up waiting for us so they all pitched in to carry things in from the van.
