We prefer the Neighborhood Walmart across from Colony Plaza, on Heald Way off of 466A. They have covered pick-up, which is great on sunny or rainy days as the covered bays protect you. During one pick-up, at Publix, it was raining heavily. I felt bad for the person putting the groceries in our trunk, as she was getting poured on, plus our trunk got soaked.
That happened at our 441 Walmart, so I parked next to their door, felt sorry for them.....love, love Walmart pickup, not only do my eyes not wander down isles picking up stuff I don't need but grocery cost is less and as an added bonus, about every month Walmart includes a gift bag full of goodies, never dreamed I'd shop online. Many friends like to squeeze and pinch their items, me, not so much.

Most of the time item out of stock is substituted with item more expensive but cost the same as original item ordered. How can you not love popping the trunk for groceries. I'm always trying to give tip but they won't take it.
