The Wal-Mart in MV is super busy too.  It is probably the most consistently crowded Wal-Mart in the South Bay.  Those Palo Alto, Mountain View and Los Altos types may talk a good game about the negative impact of big box stores, but the business is good if you can get a store open.

Admittedly, Showers is also a big VTA hub, so the store does get a ton of bus customers from other towns.

If you are an alum, maybe you spend a few extra dollars for service, selection and convenience.  If you are a student with limited funds Wal-Mart and Costco are likely your choice.
