Re: Walmart right now it’s almost impossible!

[Michael Irons]

I have one more thing to say then I will be quiet. Just because one person says they can work with the Walmart app. Does it mean that everybody else can work with it. As far as I am concerned, it is still has an accessible as it is ever been. And hopefully it will get fixed or if not, we will all have to figure out what we can do.  Sent from my iPhone On Oct 3, 2024, at 3:12 PM, Jenny Bomareto <jennybomareto.from.flor...@gmail.com> wrote: Guess I’ll keep Walmart then.

However, both Instacart and Shipt are quite a bit more expensive. And because we are very rural, we often have issues getting an acceptable shopper. If we had a delivery scheduled for 9 A.M. for example, we may not get assigned a shopper until 10:30 depending on if someone else in this area wanted a delivery and they could bundle our order. Besides the extra fees both Instacart and Shipt add on to each delivery the store choices were also not good for us. Again, because we were rural. With Instacart it was Aldees or nothing. And with shipt it was a small local store about a half mile from our house that was always so low in stock we generally had to put in a third choice for every single item just to get a full week’s delivery. With Walmart I miss the personal attention that I had with Shipt. I was spoiled by the preferred shopper. We had worked out a deal where we had exchanged numbers and she even ran back to the store once when the checkout person forgot to put something in the bag. It was still sitting at the checkout when she got to the store. We even exchanged Christmas gifts during the Holidays. But there was never a guarantee that she would be my shopper every week. One time she was off two months for knee surgery and one of the substitutes left our groceries in the apartment parking lost and drove off. It just so happened that the service manager saw her go and knew I got groceries the same time every week and brought them in for me. We are friends as well. I’ve been very fortunate since moving here in 2020. Walmart saves me hundreds of dollars every month and the choices are outstanding. Compared to the other stores I used to shop from anyway. I am frustrated at the growing lack of accessibility. And seeming lack of caring from the company. However, for me it is the best deal in town. I’m already getting Walmart Plus deals trying to head off Amazon Prime deals in the app. It will be a shame if their lack of cooperation with the blind community costs them a little business next week. But I won’t complain too much if it saves me a little money in the process. Ok, I may complain a little.

For everyone else, particularly those living in a larger urban area, you might consider InstaCart as a very viable alternative.   ************ - Sent from Bill's iPhone 8 (iOS 16.7.10) via Google Mail --  The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.   If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.   Your V iPhone list moderator is Mark Taylor.
