History
Walmart was founded in Rogers, Arkansas by Sam Walton in 1962. The company became incorporated in 1969, having a total of 24 stores. Throughout the 1970’s Walmart went National and became a publicly traded company. Sam’s Club, a warehouse style membership club that sells groceries and retail merchandising in bulk, was created by Sam Walton in the 1980’s, for small businesses and individuals. This is around the same time that the first Walmart Supercenter opened, offering supermarket items and retail merchandise in one location. In the 1990’s, Walmart was named America’s Number 1 Retailer, offering low prices and one-stop shopping. The first Walmart Supercenter was opened in Missouri in 1988, and then went global in the 90’s with store openings in Mexico, Canada, China and India.
The Walmart Supercenter is a hypermarket that carries all Walmart merchandise in addition to being a full supermarket. Walmart Supercenters have every supermarket department, from poultry/meats, dairy, baked goods, deli, frozen foods to garden produce.

According to Wieman Products, LLC, (1-800-837-8140) Wal-Mart should have Weiman Metal Polish in stock. I have not been able to locate this product at any of the Wal-Mart stores in Greenville, SC. I was also told that Ace Hardware could supply this particular product. Neither could furnish the metal polish. Please advise as to where I may be able to locate a store in my area that can supply Weiman Metal Polish.
Thank you.
the item that seems to be a thing of the past was a favorite of my home breakfast meal please bring back the multi-grain flakes dry cereal the toasted multi-grain circular type cereal that seemed to replace the flakes is in no way acceptable.

Soon they will have delivery of Walmart.com/grocery orders in select cities. In the meantime, choose “Pay with Cash” so that you can pay for your online order in person at the store so that you can pay in person or a friend can pay and pick up your order for you. When you arrive at the store, they say that you can pay for your order at any register but depending on the time of day and store location, you may want to only pay at a real (ie: not self-serve) register that easily accepts EBT cards. Online orders can be paid with Cash or by Check, Walmart Gift Card, Money Order, EBT (must select cash option in debit reader), or any credit/debit card accepted in-store.
