Good news.
Robots vs. Joe Biden’s $15.00 per hour minimum wage. What could go wrong?
Now thanks to China Joe, more and more people are going to be herded into Walmart/Amazon because higher energy costs will decimate what's left of small businesses.
That really should’ve been their strategy from day 1 going against Amazon. A quick deal with the post office for deliveries FROM their stores and boom - instant delivery network. (Their website still sux tho).
Sears was STILL in the perfect position to do this but they botched the whole thing up.
I know Walmart is NOT perfect HOWEVER I have completely dumped Amazon and switched to Walmart have been VERY HAPPY to find same free delivery service WITHOUT a membership AND they have not as of yet squashed our free speech!! SCREW AMAZON and I was a Amazon junky!!! I have spent THOUSANDS on Amazon DONE!!!
We try to avoid both and usually can.
I was thinking this may be the way of the future. Stores become smaller as people order online and pick up at the store. Much like how Sears, Penny’s and other stores had pickup locations for catalog purchases.
I ordered 2 each, 5lb containers of honey roasted peanuts online from Walmart. After dark, I heard a knock on the door. It was a young lady dropping off the peanuts I had ordered earlier. I ask her if she came all the away out just to drop off my order, she said she had other deliveries, but yes, they would bring out whatever we ordered that was stocked at the store. Since, then, I’ve ordered many other items and they’ve delivered them that day or the next.
But Idiocracy said it would be Costco
COD ?
Competition is always good for the consumer.
I prefer do to my own shopping.
I have always gotten what I ordered from Walmart, on time, and as described. Once I ordered a musical Charlie Brown Christmas tree from Amazon. I arrived a week late, and the box contained a string of used Christmas lights. Seriously. And some of the horror stories from fufillment center employees are inhuman. I will not patronize a massive sweat shop. Jeff Bezos can go back to Hell where he came from.
I tried to order an item from Wal-Mart last October and when I went to check out a merchandising fee pop up that added about 20 bucks to the price.
I cancelled and ordered the same item from Amazon for slightly less and no merchandising fee.
Walmart screws us in Alaska. Nothing I’ve ever wanted from them will they ship to the store in Alaska. Idiotic. All the business they do.
Woke Walmart vs Woke Amazon
I’ll NEVER step in a Walmart, nor eat at McDonald’s, give the LOW LIFES that frequent both places.
NEVER!!!
The difference between Walmart and Amazon is: Amazon has it’s own fleet of delivery drivers.
Walmart uses Doordash.
Amazon drivers get paid a wage for doing what they do.
Doordash drivers get a base pay of $3.00 per order. It can go up based on distance, but the amount doesn’t change based on how MUCH you’re transporting, whether it’s 1 item or 200 items.
Just a little background.
