I’ve ordered online from Walmart for years and had good luck.It arrives fast.
But I am in their home state , maybe makes a difference.
Amazon isn’t as quick, I waited two weeks for a bottle of vanilla.
Both take EBT ( food benefit cards) online.

I’m thinking about getting the Walmart +.You get free Paramount streaming , gas discounts, free shipping on all items ,and it’s half off if you are low income.First month is free.I have Paramount so I'm switching right before that subscription renews.


I have Disney+ & Hulu, there was this discount for Disney & Hulu for Black Friday last year for $4.99 for Disney & Hulu, but it for new subscribers, I changed email addresses, I cancelled Disney & Hulu before it renewed. I got Peacock too for $0.99 :) I joined Walmart+, so far I saved $6.99, I need more plastic spoons. I wish Netflix was free too with the membership.

It sounds like Amazon Prime in which membership allows unlimited "free" deliveries.

Amazon Prime has a "membership" fee, as some store loyalty cards do. The problem with this "pay a flat monthly fee, get lower prices" thing is that it's only cost effective for customers who normally buy more than a certain amount of stuff. Otherwise, one possible workaround is to delay buying anything till what you want to buy has exceeded that threshold amount, opt in, buy the lot, and then opt out. Another is to combine with friends and family, thus dividing the fee by the number of people involved until it's so tiny that nobody gets nudged into buying stuff they don't much want. Get the cheese without springing the trap.

I used to have Amazon Prime, I always went shopping there, I used to get my groceries from Amazon Fresh, they stopped delivery to my zip code, I’m very happy with Instacart now. I also had Amazon Videos, I loved Amazon Videos, Amazon it too much money now, I’m in California, I paid under $15 month, they are more expensive now, so Walmart+ is a good deal, but I usually shop at Walmart once month. I have Best Buy card, I always shop there when I could walk better. Best Buy was like Disneyland to me :D :heart: :heart:

I Googled Walmart+ and Walmart said
Annual plan is $98 (only $8.17/month) after trial

Amazon is $139 a year. I thought about dropping it but the delivery service has been amazing.

No wasted shopping trips to find the store is out of stock despite what they say on the Internet.

I assume the OP meant what they wrote for the title of this thread.

Walmart+ Membership

Yeah, I meant Walmart+. Question, is annual plan better than paying monthly?
