It’ll be a fail. Their execution on “convenience” groceries has been weak. Amazon is leaps ahead esp with Prime/ Whole Foods.

We've got it here. What a waste of 8 parking spaces.

You know, if you keep doing the same thing and expecting different results, you're insane. The key would be to have groceries bagged and ready for customers to pick up. Delivery costs too much and is difficult to execute well.
-
They (Walmart) already do this and well I might add. In fact, that’s the picture in the article being linked, their pick-up service.
-
Yes, I know. So why are they now thinking delivery is a good idea? Webvan? Peapod?
-
Probably because grocery delivery is the future, particularly in metropolitan areas. In Chicago there are no fewer than a half dozen grocery delivery options and with Walmart’s scale they will certainly knock a couple of those out.
-
It will fail. When you try to deliver and everyone on the street is not a customer, the cost gets too high. The issue is when people aren't home and you need to go several times.
