Walmart has a very good on line site that carries a wide array of items most of which are not carried in stores. It just makes sense that as consumers expand on line shopping, Walmart would experience healthy growth there just like everyone else who has a decent online site. Site prices are competitive and they offer free shipping on orders over $50 and free store pick up for orders under $50. They also have free returns either to the store or via mail.
Speaking of WMT's online capabilities, this headline just crossed my screen:

I was just about to post a similar article. I think WMT will do fine, their distribution network and cost controls are far and above most other retailers.
Don't look now, but they're trading at $74.45. Buy now, or hope for lower?
