As an aside, A friend of mine who does business with that store tells me that it is the busiest store in the world. Rumored to do $240MM a year. 28 registers open from 8am to midnight.

It's also the store where a customer was killed in a Black Friday stampede.

I can imagine that Walmart is drooling over the prospect of opening a superstore in Brooklyn.

What happens if I didn't pick up my item within 7 days? Any grace period?

Order seems to be lost and now they're ordering a replacement....
I really think Amazon is the big winner in this one.
I got a few great deals but we all know those deals aren't at all sustainable and we all know that Walmart is a real pain to deal with, especially Walmart pickup.
One day of really competitive pricing but by now I think they should be removed from the Amazon deals board

Ordered crib mattress and steel folding chairs. The mattress arrived a few days ago, the chairs just now. Unfortunately, Sunday is the last day for the mattress, so I guess I'm headed to Valley Stream on Sunday. Hopefully it's starting to die down, but I'm not counting on it.

Good luck!!! The place is an absolute mad house on sunday! Not just walmart the entire complex, the later in the day you go the crazier it gets and you'll have to wait many light cycles just to get out of the lot.
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

You mean the Walmart lot, or the whole Green Acres? You don't have to wait at any light to get out of Walmart if you know what you're doing.

P.S.A Walmart in Monsey is missing the key to the storage locker. They plan to cut the lock open later today. You may want to wait or at least call ahead to see if it your stuff is available.

On the other hand, the women staffing it was very helpful and gave me rocking chairs with someone else's name on it and said she would make a note to give that person mine.

As of 15 minutes ago there was no line at all for in store pickups.

These things cost them a dollar a piece to manufacture.
You think this will get them $100,000 worth of advertising?

Was this comment supposed to be on the Crocs thread?

Back is a little too short. Easy to rock if you have your legs on the chair "Indian style" otherwise not IME

I got there at 2, no line at all for pickup. First item (4 pack steel folding chairs) was brought out right away, other item (crib mattress) was on the truck. If I haven't done any other shopping, it would've been a half hour total. Problem was I saw they were bringing the mattress just as I was going to check out for my regular shopping, so I went straight there figuring they'd ring up my items. They didn't, so I spent an extra 15 minutes to check out for the items I bought in store.

All in all it was 45 minutes in and out, and my wife took up that exact time up at Sears after dropping me off, before picking me up. Not terrible to be honest.

That of course depends on the dollar value you give to 45 minutes of your time.
Feelings don't care about your facts

::) I didn't say anything about the value proposition of the trip. I'm talking about relative to the other experiences reported here, and the hype of Green Acres/WM being so terrible on Sunday. Besides, as I wrote I did some other shopping, and my wife did a bunch of returns at the same time elsewhere. Seems like a win to me.
