It's simple. Signup for unlimited monthly delivery. I pay $14.21 a month, with taxes and fees, for membership. I get all the deliveries I want for the month. That's good enough for me. Walmart has stores in Antioch, Pittsburg, Richmond, and San Ramon.
I hope 1,000's of you signup and get a $20 credit. It's good for you and it's good for me because I also get a $20 credit for telling you. I'm nobody special I assume you can do the same thing.
I'm a Walmart fan. I get deliveries from Walmart all the time. Whatever mistakes they have made I have been fully compensated for. I don't even bother unless it's over $10. I have this to say about Walmart "some companies say the right things and then some businesses do the right things" I think Walmart falls into that category.
