Customers can also upgrade to a faster 3-5 day option for just $2.97, with most orders arriving in three days or less, without a subscription fee.

Customers Can Get Early Access to Cyber Monday Online Specials
Walmart's mobile app customers, Facebook fans and email subscribers will be among the first to receive invitations to an early shopping event on Sunday, Dec. 1, featuring up to 20 of the best Cyber Monday items while supplies last, before they are widely available. Walmart.com has tripled the number of early access items compared to last year's Cyber Week event, when the retailer offered one early access item per day.
More Opportunities to Shop Great Deals on Thanksgiving and Black Friday
Customers don't have to wait until Cyber Week to save online. While the turkey cooks, customers can visit Walmart.com to get a head start on their Black Friday shopping on Thanksgiving Day. Hundreds of the Black Friday deals scheduled to be released in Walmart stores will be available online at Walmart.com in limited quantities early on Thanksgiving morning, including a Samsung® Galaxy 3 10.1-inch tablet for $299 ($60 savings) and the Little Tikes gourmet kitchen for $50 ($39 savings).
And, Walmart.com will offer hundreds of additional online specials at incredible prices on Thanksgiving and Black Friday while supplies last, including an Xbox 360™ with camouflage controller for $139 ($90 savings) and an Apple iPad 2 bundle with Bluetooth speaker and accessory kit for $349 (nearly $75 savings).
More Convenient Ways to Save and Shop
Walmart's mobile shoppers can also find convenient ways to shop and save on their tablets and smartphones, including access to their local circulars and a Black Friday store map to help them plan their visit on the Walmart mobile app. Mobile now accounts for 50 percent of Walmart.com traffic, a percentage that has doubled over the past two years.
