Walmart's New Look

If you live in Dahlonega and Beyond, then you know that our major shopping center is Walmart. To be honest, when D&B located to Dahlonega, we were underwhelmed with the Walmart store. Poorly lighted, disorganized and cramped, it wasn't exactly the crown jewel in the Walmart chain.

But Dahlonega's Walmart is undergoing a remodel. Even the old logo is going away... (Have you noticed Walmart's logo is no longer Always Low Prices. Since 2010, it's been Save Money. Live Better.)

Although not quite completed, the remodeling has truly put a sparkle on the Dahlonega store. Now well lit, bright, and so much cleaner looking, the store is definitely better organized. The electronics center is triple the original size, with giant LCD and LED television screens lining the walls. Incredibly, the store even has an impressive selection of computers and other hardware. (Look out Best Buy. Appears that you're Walmart's next target.)

Unfortunately, our trip to the almost-new Walmart was a snatch and grab (We were looking for a computer cable.) So D&B didn't have time to fully explore the store department-by-department, but from what we saw the store definitely earns a D&B Thumbs Up. The remodel should be finished August 5. Can't wait to see the final product.
