So You Wanna Be a Walmart+ Whiz? A Totally Serious (Not Serious) Guide
Let's face it, braving the aisles of Walmart can be a thrilling adventure, like spelunking... for groceries. But what if there was a way to level up your Walmart experience? Enter Walmart+, the membership that turns you from a shopping cart wrangler to a retail samurai.
But first, a word of warning: Being a Walmart+ member comes with great responsibility. You might accrue serious savings, unlock the power of free delivery, and gain access to exclusive member deals. Prepare to be envied by your non-member friends (we won't judge if you channel your inner Marie Kondo and spark some joy-inducing decluttering in their pantries).
Here's how to join the elite (or at least, the membership-holding) group:

1. Embrace the Power of the App (or Website, But Who Downloads Websites These Days?)
Head over to the Walmart app (or the website, if you're rocking a flip phone – respect!) and create an account if you haven't already. Signing up is easier than remembering where you parked your car in the Walmart labyrinth (trust me, it's a common struggle).

2. Choose Your Weapon (Membership Plan, That Is)
Walmart+ offers two membership tiers: monthly and annual. The monthly plan is perfect for commitment-phobes (or those who like the flexibility of dipping a toe in the membership pool). The annual plan offers a slight discount, so if you know you'll be a gung-ho Walmart shopper, this might be your jam.

3. Free Trial? Don't Mind If We Do!
QuickTip: Reading regularly builds stronger recall.![]()
Walmart+ offers a free 30-day trial. Consider it a test drive. Take it for a spin! See if those free deliveries make you sing with joy (or at least prevent a meltdown over forgotten milk).
Here's the Cool Stuff You Get as a Walmart+ Member (Besides Bragging Rights):
- Free Delivery From Your Local Store: Skip the checkout lines and the whole "hunt for a parking spot" fiasco. Get your groceries delivered straight to your door, like a grocery delivery ninja! (Minimum order amount applies, but hey, who doesn't love a bulk buy?)
- Free Shipping With No Order Minimum (On Most Items): Need that emergency bottle opener for your social gathering that's, like, right now? No sweat! Order online and get it delivered for free (with some exclusions, but hey, that bottle opener is coming through!)
- Member Fuel Discounts: Gas prices are about as predictable as a toddler's mood swing. But with Walmart+, you can slash those pump prices a bit and save some serious moolah on gas.
Being a Walmart+ member isn't about blind consumerism (although, that ten-pack of gummy bears might be calling your name). It's about convenience, saving some cash, and maybe, just maybe, making your next Walmart trip a little less stressful. So, are you ready to join the club?
