74. I have shopped Walmart online for a few years

Feb 2022

The only way I get 'free shipping' is by paying for Walmart Plus membership.

It's similar to amazon, doordash, etc where,
if you buy a membership, shipping or delivery is free.

Just like that old saying "you can pay me now or you can pay me later"
