I got to our local Walmart when it opened at 7 but they were counting people as they go in and had queue built.

Walmart issues strict customer guidelines

Walmart announced that starting Saturday it would limit the number of patrons in its stores to help slow the spread of the novel coronavirus after too many of its customers ignored social distancing guidelines.

"While many of our customers have been following the advice of the medical community regarding social distancing and safety, we have been concerned to still see some behaviors in our stores that put undue risk on our people," Dacona Smith, Walmart's executive vice president and COO, said in a statement Friday.

Stores will now allow no more than five customers for every 1,000 square feet at a given time, which is roughly 20 percent of a store’s capacity, the company said. Once capacity is reached, "customers will be admitted inside on a '1-out-1-in' basis."
