There are 2 Walmarts near me and the parking lots are full and the stores busy any time I have gone there. People shop where they can get a bargain. I shop online and mostly at Amazon as I don’t like crowds : )

Amazon has a lot of counterfeit goods; Walmart doesn’t.

I shop the WalMart grocery several time a week ‘cause they sell for less than Kroger, Publix, et al.

I’ve also used their online shopping. Delivery time is usually 2-3 days.

I like WalMart and feel sorry for those who won’t shop there because it’s beneath them. They are missing some wonderful buys.

I get Walmart stuff online all the time. I get to skip Bezo’s shipping charges with ship-to-shore.

Walmart.com has been a good experience for me.

One positive about amazon is that you get the SAME thing at smile.amazon.com but you pick a charity to get a percentage of the order. I pick my local crisis pregnancy center. So I am promoting pro life every time I order at Amazon.

Www.2ndvote.org has wonderful info/rating system for conservatives when deciding where to do business

Never used Walmart.com except to order grocery curbside pickup.

I used to use Amazon frequently but haven’t for a long time except for one item that is cheaper than local stores.

I just now found that Walmart.com carries it for the same price. I think I will place my next order there.

We do online grocery shopping. Love it!

Love my Alexa though too! Especially when I lay in bed and tell my coffeemaker to turn on so the coffee is ready when I hop out of bed.

Thanks for posting this thread.   I'm thinking about doing that too.

One thing I would like to find out from experienced Walmart.com shoppers, regards online payment options.   Some time back, in the interest of increasing our identity protection, we just completely stopped using credit cards and debit cards for our Amazon payments, and, instead, just buy Amazon gift cards in various local stores, and use them to pay for all our Amazon.com online orders.   Can you do that at Walmart.com?   (Can you just buy a Walmart gift card in the Walmart store, and then use that gift card to pay for your Walmart.com online purchases, instead of having to use a credit card or a debit card?)

Hoping someone here can answer that for me.   Thanks!

Do the majority of my shopping at Walmart.com.

I will price compare Amazon, but more often than not, I get a better price on WallyWeb.....

Ideologically, I find WallyWeb (Walmart) to be much more leaning to my Conservative side than Amazon and Bozo.

I vote every day with my $$$$

Great post!

Our anti-Bezos, save-the-local-economy proclivity has me turning to online BUYING as a last resort. I often use Amazon to shop for the item I want. Then I go to the manufacturer’s website to try to find local stores that carry the item. If I fail in finding it locally (or the item is ridiculously priced by the local store compared to Amazon), then I will check on acquiring directly from the manufacturer’s website. I try to remember to use RetailMeNot.com before making any online purchase. That’s where you can find promo codes to enter at checkout for free shipping, discounts, etc.

Also, the buy-online-pickup-at-the-store option is often cheaper than picking it off the shelf yourself. For example, PetSmart offers 5% for shopping online. So I find myself in stores price comparing against the same store’s website. I have purchased items online for in-store pickup while I am carrying them to the front of the store.

In the end, I agree with whoever said earlier in this thread that it’s hard to keep track of who we’re supposed to be boycotting. It seems every company, except Chick-fil-A and Hobby Lobby, has been forced to put forth a politically correct side to keep from being the prime target of the left. So, I definitely find myself buying certain items from Amazon, because it’s easier and so difficult to find elsewhere. But I will definitely look into using Walmart more when I do have to buy online. Also, I saw that Bed Bath and Beyond offers 20% discount and free shipping on all purchases for a $29 membership.

Been shopping at Walmart.com exclusively for about 2 years. Very happy with service, selection and price. Have not used amazon at all in that time. Walmart has free shipping on orders over 35.00. I can always find something to add to the order especially household stuff I reorder frequently. Plus it comes right to my door. Packed well and sometimes they throw candy bars or snack goodies in the package.

How well do you find walmart.com to be?

A distant second to Amazon, items in searches consistently result in many out of stock, or not available for shipping and with far less variety to choose from.

Plus their web site is poorly laid out, and while free shipping over $35 is quite fast (and faster than the free shipping over $35 of Amazon) if from Walmart itself, yet it is far more likely to be messed up.

But still, both are a blessing, and thank God for that and being able to get good buys. For something like basic clothing (men's jeans 9.99) or tools, building supplies, LED bulbs or a Microwave.. then Walmart likely is best; for things you need reviews and for more variety, Amazon is better; while for things like cheap bicycle parts, flashlights, watches, etc. Ebay can be much cheaper.
