Written by Erica Rose Jackson After taking my children to the store, again and again, each time filling me with more frustration, I’ve decided to try out Walmart's grocery pickup service. I took the time to make my shopping list as usual, then I logged on to Walmart’s grocery site and added each of my items to my ‘bag’. This part of the process was, actually, very easy and pain free. It’s very user friendly, and I was able to remove items or add on more with no trouble at all. Once I chose everything I needed, I moved onto the checkout process. The pick up days and times appear, and for my first use there was no pick up yesterday so I chose a time for today. I didn’t need any of these items so urgently that a day would hurt, but if I had been in a bind on, say milk, then this would have been a negative tick for my experience. Today I drove to Walmart to park in their special pickup parking spaces and await my groceries. Before this could happen, I had to receive my notification that my order was ready, which came fifteen minutes prior to my pickup window. Walmart for the win, being earlier then expected. I checked in on their app as I left for the store. I allowed the app to track my location so when I pulled in, my message read, ‘You’re here! An associate is on the way out with your groceries.” An employee loaded the items into my trunk and let me know that a few of the items were out of stock (I chose not to allow substitutions), and then I went home. Walmart’s grocery pickup service is free as long as your order meets the $30 minimum, and if you’re getting groceries that’s an easy task. I found the entire process easy and annoyance free which means I will be using it again. Anything to prevent little fingers from grabbing everything off the shelves while I try to complete my shopping list. This isn’t for those quick items like bread and milk, but for the whole grocery trip. It saves you money too because you don’t wander around the store finding things you want, but don’t need.
