| How To Use Walmart Plus Scan And Go |
So, how does this magical time-saver work? Buckle up, because it's easier than escaping a toddler's grasp on a pack of gummy worms.
-
Open the Walmart App and Embrace the Scan: First things first, you'll need the Walmart app. Download it, if you haven't already, and sign in with your glorious Walmart+ account. Now, find the "Scan & Go" option and tap it like you just won the lottery (because, let's be honest, skipping checkout lines is pretty darn close).
-
Scan, Scan, Glorious Scan: Now comes the fun part! Grab your items, find the barcode (it's usually that squiggly black and white thing), and scan it with your phone's camera. The app will add the item to your virtual cart, faster than you can say "banana bread." Pro tip: For multiples of the same item, don't scan each one individually. Just tap the quantity number and watch it magically multiply (because apparently, your phone can do math now).
-
Review, Revise, and Rejoice: Once you've scanned your goodies, tap "View Cart" to make sure everything is ship-shape. Did you accidentally scan your friend's child instead of a bag of chips? No worries! You can easily remove or edit items in your cart. Feeling confident? Excellent! Time to "Check Out."
-
Self-Checkout Shenanigans (But the Fun Kind): Head to the self-checkout lanes and scan the QR code displayed on the screen with your phone. The app will then show your final bill and payment options. Choose your weapon (debit card, credit card, magic beans, whatever floats your boat) and confirm the payment. Voila! You've conquered the checkout beast and are free to roam the land (or the parking lot) with your spoils.
Remember:
- Keep your phone charged: A dead phone is the enemy of Scan and Go, so make sure your phone has enough juice to last your shopping trip.
- Be mindful of your surroundings: While scanning, keep an eye out for fellow shoppers and store employees. You don't want to accidentally bump into anyone (unless it's your arch nemesis from high school, then by all means, bump away).
- Don't forget the bags: Unless you're channeling your inner Mary Poppins and plan to carry everything in your magical purse, bring reusable bags or grab some at the checkout.
With these tips in mind, you'll be a Scan and Go master in no time! So ditch the checkout line blues and embrace the glorious world of self-scanning. Your sanity (and your precious time) will thank you for it.
