Conquering Curbside: A Hilariously Helpful Guide to Walmart Pickup on the App

How To Walmart Pickup On App |
Step 1: Download and Conquer (the App, Not the Store)
First things first, you'll need the Walmart app. Download it, open it, and prepare to be dazzled by its user-friendly interface (or at least its ability to get you groceries without making you dodge rogue shopping carts).
Pro Tip: If you're feeling fancy, create an account. It saves addresses, past purchases, and lets you clip digital coupons like a virtual Robin Hood of savings.
QuickTip: Use CTRL + F to search for keywords quickly.![]()
Step 2: Shop Like a Boss (From the Comfort of Your Couch)
Now for the fun part: filling your virtual cart with goodies! Browse aisles (virtually, of course), toss in your favorite snacks, household essentials, or that inflatable pool flamingo you've been eyeing (no judgment here).
Remember: Not everything is eligible for pickup, so keep an eye out for the little blue "Pickup today" tag.
Tip: Rest your eyes, then continue.![]()
Step 3: The Great Pickup Slot Selection (Choose Wisely, Grasshopper)
Once your cart is overflowing (or at least decently full), proceed to checkout. Here comes the crucial step: choosing your pickup slot.
- The Early Bird Gets the... Groceries? If you're a morning person (or just super organized), snag an early slot and be on your way before the store gets too crowded.
- The Lunchtime Dash: Fitting in a pickup during your lunch break? Go for a mid-day slot, but be prepared for potentially more traffic in the designated parking spots.
- The After-Work Wind-Down: Need a post-work pick-me-up? Grab an evening slot and swing by Walmart on your way home. Just avoid rush hour if you can, unless you enjoy the thrill of parallel parking tetris.
Pro Tip: Be flexible! If your ideal slot isn't available, consider adjusting your shopping list slightly or checking back later for cancellations.

Step 4: Check-In Time (Become a Pickup Pro)
Once your order is placed and magically prepped by the Walmart elves (okay, maybe not elves, but efficient associates), you'll receive a notification when it's ready for pickup.
Here's where the app truly shines:
Tip: Don’t skip — flow matters.![]()
- The "Check In" Button: Tap this magical button to let Walmart know you're on your way. Bonus points for checking in early - it helps them have your order waiting for you and reduces your wait time.
- Parking Space Picasso: Once you've arrived at the designated pickup spots (look for the bright orange signs!), use the app to enter your parking spot number and car color. This way, the Walmart associate can find you like a grocery-seeking superhero.
Step 5: The Glorious Handover (and the Triumphant Drive Home)
Finally, the moment you've been waiting for! A friendly Walmart associate will bring your order to your car. Pop the trunk, channel your inner grocery Tetris champion as they load you up, and be on your way.
Congratulations! You've successfully conquered curbside pickup and emerged victorious with your shopping bounty. Now you can celebrate by indulging in those delicious snacks you just bought, or by finally attempting to tame that inflatable flamingo.
Remember, with the Walmart app and a little know-how, you can skip the checkout lines and shop like a pro. So go forth, conquer the curb, and embrace the glorious convenience of Walmart pickup!
