I never said that. I said that curbside pickup had been stopped and they
only resumed it few weeks ago. I said that the stores that delivered, never
had any delivery slots available and some just stopped delivering unless you
were already an established delivery customer.

I also said that Walmart does not deliver in this area but... When I looked
at the Website again, it now says "New! Delivery!" It costs $12.95 per month
or less if you pay for a year in advance. The cost alone would prohibit me
from doing it. And... I don't know if they would deliver to me a I live a
good 7+ miles from the store, depending on what route you take.

I order paper goods, cleaning supplies and non perishable groceries from
Walmart. Target and Family Dollar all the time.
