When customers shop Walmart.com or the app, their baskets often contain repeat items, which means precious time is spent every weekly shopping trip finding and adding the items they’ve purchased countless times before. Walmart now offers a new subscription service that empowers customers to effortlessly subscribe to thousands of everyday essentials at Walmart’s Every Day Low Prices. From pet food and supplements to diapers and paper towels, Walmart subscriptions guarantee automatic scheduled delivery on a customer's preferred cadence, whether it's every two weeks or every two months.
2. Get your car on the right track
