Walmart Express stores were Walmart's answer to those on the left who said they were neglecting "urban" consumers.
They were small stores located in urban neighborhoods that competed with Dollar General type stores.
It is/was a failed experiment. A friend of mine who works in Walmart management said that "shrinkage" in those stores was off the chart.
WalMart, with the help ($ in back pockets) of local politicians, threatened to expand their established store to a superstore, thus pushing out a thriving local market a mile away.
Then they opened a neighborhood market in the location.
I like the small WMart, closer to home and not as much congestion at the pharmacy.
Hope it stays open.
The main store never became a superstore although it was approved by the same crooked politicians.
