I have a hard time seeing how their consumers benefited in the long run.

Consumers are free to shop where they prefer. On average, they prefer lower prices. Walmart affords them that preference. This increases consumer surplus. The net gain in consumer surplus likely outweighs the net loss in producer surplus. If you really want to bitch about competitive outcomes you should do so on the legal side of things.

Jesus fricking Christ, I would rather go one place than 5 shitty little stores

Dollar General is competing alright with them.
