Conquering Curbside Pickup: A Walmart Warrior's Guide (Without Leaving the Couch)
Let's face it, braving the grocery store can feel like entering a gladiatorial arena. You're dodging shopping carts, wrestling with indecisive couponers, and battling for the last package of that sale-priced toilet paper. But fear not, weary warrior! There's a way to emerge victorious, bags overflowing and sanity intact: Walmart Curbside Pickup.
How To Set Up Walmart Curbside Pickup |
Step 1: Become a Digital Samurai (or Just Download the App)
First things first, you'll need a Walmart account. Signing up is easier than assembling those flimsy Ikea bookshelves (no shade, Ikea, we still love you). You can do it on the Walmart website or the Walmart app (because, let's be real, who uses desktops anymore?).
Pro Tip: Download the app. It's like having a tiny Walmart personal shopper in your pocket. Plus, you get notifications when your order is ready, which is basically the grocery store equivalent of a victory dance emoji.

Step 2: Channel Your Inner Sherlock Holmes (Find Your Store)
Type in your ZIP code and the app/website will find your nearest Walmart. It's like having your own personal cartographer, except way cooler because they don't make you wear a funny hat.
Step 3: Unleash Your Inner Pack Rat (Fill Your Virtual Cart)
Now comes the fun part: shopping! Browse the aisles (virtually, of course) and toss anything and everything you desire into your online cart. Don't hold back, my friend. This is your moment to unleash your inner shopping champion.
QuickTip: Slow scrolling helps comprehension.![]()
Hot Tip: Keep an eye out for the blue "Pickup today" tag. It means the item is eligible for curbside pickup, saving you the horror of wrestling over the last cantaloupe with Brenda from aisle 7.
Step 4: Become a Pickup Timelord (Choose Your Epic Pickup Time)
Once you've finished your virtual shopping spree, head to checkout. Here, you'll choose your curbside pickup time slot. Be mindful, Padawan learner, popular times fill up fast. So, if you're craving those Friday night tacos, plan accordingly.
Tip: Remember, the small details add value.![]()
Remember: You can usually pick up your order anytime within your chosen time slot, so no need to rush like you're late for a dentist appointment (unless you actually are, in which case, good luck!).
Step 5: Become a Master of Disguise (But Seriously, Just Park in the Designated Spots)
Once your order is ready (you'll get a notification), mosey on down to your chosen Walmart. Look for the designated pickup spots, usually marked with bright signage and impatient parents waiting for their online shopping haul.
QuickTip: Focus on one paragraph at a time.![]()
Crucial point: Don't be that guy who parks in the pickup spot while waiting for his actual groceries. Those spots are sacred, my friend. Respect the curbside code.
Step 6: Embrace Your Inner Knight (Await Your Loyal Grocery Steed)
Park your chariot (or, you know, car) and open the Walmart app. The app will ask you to confirm your arrival and provide your parking spot number and car color.
Then, sit back, relax, and channel your inner knight. A brave Walmart associate will soon arrive, bearing your grocery bounty like a hard-won treasure.
Voila! You've conquered curbside pickup and emerged victorious, with enough snacks to fuel your next Netflix marathon. Now, go forth and conquer your day, valiant shopper!
