WALMART GROCERY PICKUP REVIEW
Let me start by saying I don't like using my debit or credit card for purchases. I believe that paying cash for purchases helps minimize the risk of adding unnecessary items to my purchase. However, I have to admit that using the grocery pickup saves me time (which is extremely valuable to me) and money. Walmart pickup does require payment with plastic. I believe the grocery pickup is a valuable tool in budgeting. Don't take my word for it; try it yourself! If you want to save $10.00 off your first order, leave us your email address before you place your order and we will help you with that (and won't publish your email address).
Here is how it works: you order your groceries online and select a time and day for you to pick them up. At the time and day you scheduled, just notify them you are outside (or on the way). They will bring your groceries out to your vehicle and load them up for you. How simple is that?!?
Now, understand that I don't buy meats from Walmart, so I don't know if I would be happy with having them select meats for me. I also don't use the pickup for a large amount of fresh fruit and vegetables. I have not always been happy with their selection of celery and bananas, but I can't say they didn't bring the best that was available.
If they don't have exactly what you order, you have an option to allow them to substitute other items, which you choose at the time you place the order. If you are not happy with the substitution, you decline the item and are not charged for it. If they upgrade the item, you don't pay extra for it.
They also have a "favorites" button that you can click and review if there is something you might have left off your list but you really need. This comes in handy if you are a little forgetful or if you get distracted while placing your order.

You can use this method to control your spending when you have a limit on how much money can be spent on groceries. You can also see on what you are spending your allotted amount of money. This can result in behavior modification and a happier wallet. For us older folks, when you see how much you are spending on the grand babies, you might consider showing your receipts to your children and allowing them to reimburse you for some of it. Haha
