Walmart Shopping Tips

20 Marvelous tips to save money on Walmart shopping

Online shopping has revolutionized what people buy and when they buy online. It is convenient and easy to buy anything from anywhere in the world, especially products from retail giant Walmart. Recently, while browsing through our coupon site (I love coupons and vouchers, they help me save hundreds of dollars on clothes and groceries), I came across the Walmart Rachael Ray clearance sale. Oh my!! There was zillion ‘upgrade my kitchen stuff’ racing through my mind. I had to buy that 11 piece Aluminium non-stick Turquoise cookware I had been eyeing for so long and a marine blue enamel on steel 12 quart covered stockpot, all at reduced prices, and what more, when I order above $35, shipping is free.

For those who are not so Walmart shoppers, let me tell you, Walmart has come a long way since the 1960s, but it has always maintained low prices on quality products. So, I love what they sell and do, save me and millions of lots of money and I love what they believe in – Walmart saves money live better!!!

Story Of Walmart:

Walmart started out as a discount retail shop in 1962 in Rogers, Arkansas, The USA. Under the leadership of Sam Walton or Mr. Sam, as he was very fondly called, Walmart grew into a household name in the US as well globally. Walmart’s mission and vision were always to help communities save money on quality products. To take the mission and vision globally, Walmart has opened hundreds of stores worldwide, offering branded products at low prices.

It doesn’t surprise me that Walmart’s US e-commerce sales have seen a growth in sales of 37% according to Q1 FY20 earnings. (Walmart.com)

What is different about Walmart?

Walmart ventured into the e-commerce business after acquiring Jet.com in 2016. Since that, it has welcomed other portfolios into the Walmart family like Shoes.com, Hayneedle.com, Moosejaw, Modcloth, and Bonobos. Its goal has been to expand its business and services to the US and beyond.

Walmart sells thousands of products with the help of its suppliers all over the world. It offers products which customers want and accordingly completes the cycle for the demand for products with a quality supply of products.
