Just have them deliver to your home.
You don’t have to deal with anyone.

*********

That’s happening in food now. Call
your order in and they deliver it to
your home.

I wonder how much money they have saved abandoning all the stores in the DEMOCRAT Sh!thole cities.

I love it. I use to enjoy shopping in the grocery store but no longer. The employees are rude and God forbid you look for someone to check your groceries out that doesn’t have an attitude! I stay in my jammies with my coffee and wait for my deliveries. I’m very happy with the Walmart+ Home delivery.

I’m a Walmart watcher when I travel.

Walmart is always innovating. I’m not sure when the optimization will reach an end.

The overstock shelves added above the regular shelves saved labor returning unshelved stock to the backroom.

Associates now use smart phones instead of the clunky limited Telezons of the past.

Associates at the self checkout now know what is being scanned and can visually verify any inconsistency,

Walmart took advantage of Covid and hired between 300,000 and 400,000 new employees.

They also got people used to getting their purchases picked for them for pickup in the parking lot.

Less people roaming the aisles makes the security staff’s job easier.

“Just have them deliver to your home. You don’t have to deal with anyone.”

I’ve considered it, but I live out in the country. I don’t like strangers coming to my house. If I lived in the city I probably would.
