Well, I'll tell you why I do.
Walmart corporate sucks. Yep. But you know who else sucks? Most other corporations. Walmart is not significantly more evil than the rest.
I'm a wheelchair user. I am independent to the point of driving to dialysis, but not grocery shopping. So I use delivery. You know who the only store is that doesn't charge me extra? Walmart.
They're not the lowest in price - Aldi and Lidl are - but Walmart is still cheaper than the other mainstream grocery brands, and I'm poor
Quality is pretty decent all across the board. Not special or amazing, but pretty solid.
They really have their shit together. We just moved and I have InHome now, meaning when I place an order, I get either 9a-12p window or 1p-5p window (my choice), and they bring stuff into the apartment - into the kitchen. Also, I cannot tip, meaning no decision or choice on the matter.
I'm not passionate about Walmart. I wish other stores would get their shit together like them, though, because I'd like to throw my business around. I really wish I had better access to Aldi and Lidl, but I can't pay the inflated instacart/doordash prices for groceries, and I hate instacart grocery shoppers. Nice poeple, but they can never find everything and having to babysit the chat and hope they don't pull nonsense right before checking out so I don't have time to catch them....... it's not been good experiences.
Walmart ain't perfect and it's annoying when they're out of something or they make a mistake, but they fix mistakes, and overall, it's a solid service.
Should anyone else use it? Up to your needs. I'm glad to have it, though.
