The mass closure of small business in a city or town caused by Wal-Mart setting up shop there
Many small businesses have closed across America because of the Wal-Mart effect.
The natural phenomenon that occurs when one enters any Wal-Mart Superstore needing nothing, yet somehow ends up leaving with a full cart.
This is probably due to their low costs, extended store hours, and poor employee benefits.
See: Wal-Mart
Victim: Dude, help me unload my cart.
Victim's Friend: I thought you said you didn't need anything?
Victim: ...They did it again! It's The Wal-Mart Effect, Gets me every time.
Victim's Friend: Ah, I see what you did there. Very well played, Wal-Mart.

When you've become a permanent employee of Wal-Mart - where you've paved your destiny by binding yourself to work there for the rest if your life, it is inevitable that you will become a fatty, a super fatty fat fatty, some could even argue morbidly obese fatty. This comes from the depression and misery & rollercoaster of negative emotions that comes with being employed with Wal-Mart. Every employee that works their way up in the store, undoubtedly, experiences The Wal-Mart Effect. Fattys.
Friend 1: Hey buddy, you've gained some weight since I seen you last!
Friend 2: Yeah, I got hit with the Wal-Mart Effect when I became a customer service manager.
Friend 1: Wow, our manager sure is a wide load!
Friend 2: Well yeah, every manager falls victim to The Wal-Mart Effect.
Manager: Go wash the windows.
Employee: Whatever you fat loser, if you don't kill yourself, The Wal-Mart Effect will claim you, fat ass.
