tinkrbel Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 I love it. They're shipping times vary some quick some super slow but free is free and I usually order with plenty of time:)
mom2monkiesx3 Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 About TIME..I don't pay shipping at ALL. And IMO there shipping needs work...although I am Prime Amazon spoiled! But Walmart shipping and site to store seems to take FOREVER
hack2222 Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 Especially when walmart loses the package. I've had to have the customer service ship it to my house for free, because they lost it.
Cinnamonhuskies Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 About TIME..I don't pay shipping at ALL. And IMO there shipping needs work...although I am Prime Amazon spoiled! But Walmart shipping and site to store seems to take FOREVER agreed!
jade2002 Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 About TIME..I don't pay shipping at ALL. And IMO there shipping needs work...although I am Prime Amazon spoiled! But Walmart shipping and site to store seems to take FOREVERI think thats because they use FEDEX. FEDEX takes forever and forever and forever.
mom2monkiesx3 Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 I don't order from them much but it seems to take forever in PROCESSING not just shipping.....everytime I order from them or Victoria's secret I cringe...
bugsette Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 that' great free shipping I hate to pay for shipping
jediliz Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 this is a good deal. If I can't find the nintendo ds video game I want on Black Friday (either at Target or online at Best Buy....) I may just order it from Walmart.com That is IF I can't get it at Best Buy or Target.
Scanner420 Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 I also like the fact that they'll return it for free if there's a problem!!
HansieDZ Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Free shipping DEFINITELY makes me want to order from WM!
queenofshopping Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Good deal, but then last year I got free shipping anyway with Site to Store, so...I wonder if the extra time this will undoubtedly take will be worth not having to stand there for 20 minutes when I go to pick my stuff up b/c they can't find anything.
tinkrbel Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 I used to do site to store too but our Walmart isn't on the way anywhere so was either make a special trip or stop by on my way home from work and then get stuck in rush hour. Now if they'd open it up at 7am I could go in before work and save the hassle
