Amazing, an old concept now new. I am confused. And grocery ordering and pickup has been around for over 40 years. Where is the real innovation? It comes from a happy workforce that is invested and appreciated for their efforts for progress.

Exactly, this HAS been done before, just not on as grandiose a scale-----and it has failed before, too.
The main reason I see a bursting bubble with the 'Amazon Shop'-thing? America's highways are already saturated with traffic. This spike in demand is going to choke things off almost completely in the next couple-few years. That is unsustainable, obviously.
On the home delivery end, we're already seeing the front porch theft effect of that. It's fast coming to where you're gonna need to just pick up your stuff at a local ware house.....which kind of defies the whole point of skipping the stores, doesn't it? :)
Awesome they are focusing on delivery to the customer and improving and expanding on existing services. Our elderly is market that appreciates the special services.
If you've got better ideas, send them to corporate. They're always looking for well analyzed plans with the metrics and analysis to back it up.
Actually if you want to see what a really awful company looks like, hop over to the Sears board, and bring the popcorn
Perfect time for Walmart to step in then, since Sears and JCPenney won't be around for much longer
To the couch psychologist, thanks for your ever judgemental, completely needless and inaccurate propaganda attack against folks struggling in a harsh economy...that is largely dominated by a villainous 'company'.
I hope such misfortune never happens to you, but if it does.....Karma was listening
At the end of the day Walmart employs 2.2 million people. That's more than almost every country on Earth employs, and every day, they choose to be there and not work for someone else, despite all the choices out there. Perhaps the perceived unhappiness is more psychological projection and assigning your own existential unhappiness to others?
Walmart workers are happy? Now THAT'S news!
