I have an order over $35 in my cart.
I was told there was no delivery charge.
Then when I click through they say the delivery charge is $6.97.
Not understanding this.
More of a PSA than a rant, but Walmart charges between $7-12 for grocery delivery depending on how far in advance you order. However, from my experience, more often than not, the deliveries come with many missing items. Sometimes when an item is out of stock and there are no suitable substitutes, your order will be modified and the total price will be adjusted before the order is even dispatched. However, today, there were 16 items missing from my order, and they were items that Walmart said that they would be able to deliver (i.e. not out of stock as of when the items are sent out). I had to call them and go over all of the missing items, which negated most of the time that would have been saved by having groceries delivered. There's no option to redeliver any items that did not arrive--you either have to go to the store and buy them or create a new order, incurring another delivery fee. Agents that I spoke to wouldn't budge on the delivery fee being refunded or at least waived so that I can create a new order without paying the delivery fee twice.
Just beware. You might not be getting the convenience that you paid for.
Is the grocery delivery fee reduced by $9.95? But there's still a $6.99 fee for orders under $35? Are there still the $10 and $5 charges on fast delivery?
Is there no longer free delivery from walmart.ca for non grocery items like vacuum cleaners?
Interested in experiences with grocery delivery service in Waterloo. Which is best, which to avoid?
I bought the free delivery subscription, but wondering about the Tip option at checkout... Who gets that? The driver?
Do people usually leave a tip, and how much %?
The only grocery stores near me are Loblaws, No frills, fortinos and shoppers. I've been doing the corner shop for fruits and veg and no frills for everything else. But I'd have to drive far for any larger grocery store not owned by Loblaws and I'm not the most comfortable driver.
Inspired by this sub to find alternative options, I decided to try Walmart delivery and I can't believe how much lower their prices are for the same things. Even with the delivery fee (it was only $6.97) and driver tip I'm spending way less on the same food. Plus their app was user friendly, showed sale prices, no extra mark up, I can get more than just groceries and someone brings it to me so I don't have to brave traffic myself.
Honestly I can't believe how much more food I can get for my money. Not sure I'll ever go back to Loblaws brand stores. I'll still buy fruits and veg local cause I want to support small businesses but for all my grocery needs I AM DONE WITH ROBlaws!!
People who have grocery deliveries from Walmart in downtown Toronto - is it worth it ?
Financially: does it cost more or less then if you would do groceries on your own ?
Convenience: Is the no hassle to go buy groceries worth the delivery fee
Any other pros or cons
Does anyone have experience with them? My coworker swears by it but I just had a 100 dollar order cancelled 30 minutes before it was supposed to arrive and I’m quite annoyed because I’m infrequently home during their delivery windows, and there were things I needed TODAY, so now I need to go to the store. Plus I’m waiting “5-10 business days” for a refund.
