They seem to be showing up in communities with a large proportion of folks with Scottish heritage, ... like El Paso.

Any idea of the size range, like 54 Regular? I can drive down to the one in Orangeburg SC on the way to see my daughter in Savannah.

Adam, I hope we meet while out and about. When I venture into the 'big city', I tend to hang on the other side unless visiting my dad or sister.

Come to think of it Burlington had something along those lines too recently so it wouldn't hurt to try them.

Manassas a center of fashion, a big city, someone get the defibrilator! :-)

The largest I have seen is a 48R.

Well, they are here in Klamath Falls, Oregon to my surprise. Going down to try one on today.

For all of Walmart's vaunted marketing expertise, this thread leaves me shaking my head in wonderment. . . must have been some single-malt involved prior to the "throw a dart at the map" distribution plan!

I spent 2 Christmases in El Paso (my wife's hometown)...kilted. Not the mecca of kilts..but no issues out and about.

I was more surprised to see a BMW dealership.

Largest our store had was a 50R in the biege. And SWMBO said it wasn't the color for me.

The largest I saw in Klamath was a 48. Bought one in the blue and one in the brown. Another customer was impressed that they even had them, bought two also (his wife insisted!) Seems like they are starting to move.
