No More Grocery Store

What if I were to tell you that you never have to step foot in the grocery store again, a dream come true right. Now I know some of you are thinking "that's my alone time" well what your husband doesn't know won't hurt him, just say you are going to the store, do your own thing then stop for a minute (6 to be exact) and get groceries.
Some of you may not have this service available to you like my sister-in-law, but she continually talked to management and they now have this service where she lives. I'm not saying she is the only reason but it did end up in her area.
Enough with the suspense, I'm talking about Walmart Grocery Pick-up. I am in no way shape or form getting rewarded for this post, it has just come to my attention that people are not taking advantage of this amazing FREE service. When I started doing this a year ago I posted all over my social media about how great it was and assumed that everyone else jumped on the bandwagon as well, but apparently that did not happen. I'm probably going to regret this because the more popular it gets the longer I'm going to have to wait but I feel like ever person low on time needs to take advantage.
How does it work you ask, well you go to either the Walmart Grocery app or website search for the item you want, put them in your cart, choose the store locations, date, and time you want to pick up, DONE. Now I want to warn you, they are still working on their search, and sometimes what you want is out of stock, but to me the inconvenience is worth the time I save. Also when you check out you may choose to allow substitutions but this is like a game of Russian Roulette, you never know what is going to end up in your bag. Sometimes it works out in your favor and it is the more expensive version, which they do not charge you more for, and sometimes you end up with powder peanut butter instead of regular old peanut butter, what is that BTW?
The final steps of this amazing process are as follows:
1. They notify you via app that order is ready.
2. At a time that is convenient to you check-in on app that you are on your way (does not HAVEto be you designated time).
3. Get in car drive to your designated Walmart.
4. Park in the designated parking for grocery pick-up (marked in orange)
5. Stay in car while they load your groceries and enjoy the ice cold water or treat they brought you.
6. Drive home.
The process of picking up groceries normally takes about 6 minutes from the time I pull in and park from the time I put my car in reverse. The cherry on top is that I use their savings catcher app where I type in the receipt number and they price match anything I bought then reimburse me through my Walmart app with a credit. It must be said that I also love the customer service that I receive, which is saying a lot because to me this is not normally Walmarts strength, but all of the employees I have interacted with in the almost year I have been doing this are the best, go above and beyond, and are super friendly.
Enjoy your free time mommies, I hope this post was helpful.
