Reply to comment by no1ofimport in Ontario Walmart turns into 'hotel' as storm-stranded shoppers get stuck for the night by jormungandrsjig

Probably wouldn't expect corporate Walmart to condone something like this, but gotta give huge credit to the management and staff at that local Walmart for doing the right thing and turning a bad situation into something with some kindness and even fun, busting out a few board games.

Every Walmart has a budget for "store use" items they can grab off the shelf and use. I'm sure this instance exceeded that budget, but I'm also sure there is an emergency use clause that lets them bypass that limit.
