Only worse others came on Monday--They came to shop, the loaded their shopping carts only to leave them full of food and items which they abandoned after the glitch was fix and they couldn't take advantage of hauling of the several carts of groceries as ones did before them. Because some were upset they simply walked away leaving rolls of cart jams in the stores. Although the computer did similar glitches in 17 states, the problem was repaired. Wal-Mart claimed that the people were orderly, and that no riot or violence was displayed, but many were just disappointed they didn't get in on the over limited groceries as some did. The incident was mainly in Wal-Mart stores in Louisiana where carts were left abandoned happened on Monday, October 14, 2013. The day of the power outages was Saturday October 12, 2013 when most of the food takers grabbed the large quantity of foods were at stake.
