So you've got a stack of Walmart Reward Dollars – Now what, champ?
Let's face it, accumulating those little blue stars can feel like collecting bottle caps – fun at first, but then you're left wondering, "What am I supposed to do with all this plastic?" Fear not, fellow value adventurer, for I, your friendly neighborhood bargain bin browser, am here to guide you through the glorious world of redeeming your Walmart Reward Dollars.
| How To Use Walmart Card Rewards |
Step 1: Embrace your inner detective (because apparently, rewards hide)
First things first, you gotta find out how much treasure you're hoarding. There are two main ways to do this:
Tip: Reading carefully reduces re-reading.![]()
- The online sleuth: Head to the "My Account" section of the Walmart website or app. Under the "Rewards" tab, you'll see your current balance displayed in all its shiny glory.
- The physical quest: Dig through your wallet (or purse, or that random drawer you haven't opened since 2012) and find your receipt from your last Walmart purchase. The bottom of the receipt will usually show your current rewards balance.
Remember: Finding your rewards balance is like finding a forgotten twenty in your winter coat pocket – a delightful surprise!

Step 2: Unleash your inner bargainista (because, let's be real, that's why we're here)
Now comes the fun part: spending those hard-earned rewards! Here are your options:
Tip: Take a sip of water, then continue fresh.![]()
- Become a master of checkout self-service: Look for the "Redeem Rewards" option at checkout. Simply enter the amount you want to use, and watch those magical blue stars transform into actual savings. You might even feel a tiny thrill, like you've outsmarted the system (you kind of have).
- The app-tastic approach: If you're a mobile whiz, use the Walmart app to redeem your rewards during checkout. It's like having a personal savings genie in your pocket, minus the questionable lamp situation.
Pro tip: Don't be afraid to mix and match your payment methods. Use your rewards to partially cover a purchase, then throw down your debit card for the rest. You're basically a financial acrobat, and everyone loves a good acrobat (except maybe those folks with a fear of heights).
QuickTip: Don’t just consume — reflect.![]()

Go forth and spread the gospel of savings, or, you know, treat yourself to that bag of gummy worms you've been eyeing. You deserve it, champ.
