Tip: Break long posts into short reading sessions.
- Channel your inner Indiana Jones: Grab your laptop (or phone, because let's be real, who uses laptops anymore?) and head to the mystical Walmart gift card balance check page (https://www.walmart.com/account/giftcards/balance).
- Crack the code: Enter the 16-digit gift card number (usually found on the front) and the 4-digit security code (usually on the back, but keep it hush-hush).
- Click the golden button: Behold! With a click of the button (think dramatic music here), the internet reveals the truth - your remaining balance is displayed in all its glory.
Method 2: Phone it In - For the Tactilely Challenged
QuickTip: Stop and think when you learn something new.
- Embrace your inner detective: Pick up your phone (because, again, laptops are so 2010) and dial the thrilling number 1-888-537-5503.
- Follow the voice: A friendly (or maybe not-so-friendly) automated voice will guide you through the thrilling world of automated menus. Just punch in the numbers they ask for, including your gift card number and PIN.
- Patience is a virtue: Unless you're a master button masher, this might take a minute. But hey, at least you can multitask and fold laundry while you wait.
