I was scrolling through Facebook tonight and I came across a local business owner's page, and his post said that Walmart will be opening a location in Youngsville.

According to the post, the new Walmart will be located near the intersection of the Youngsville Highway (Hwy 89) and Hwy 92, smack dab between two local grocery stores, Nunu's and Pat's Grocery.

100% of the comments on the thread were anti-Walmart. (Facebook)

100% of the comments on his thread were negative towards the news that Walmart was opening in Youngsville.

Many of the comments stated "I'm still going to shop Mom and Pop" or "nothing beats local".

What are your thoughts?  Do you still think that Walmart stores are good for the local economy?
