Growing up, my mom was the family referee, breaking up fights between me and my siblings — usually with a good lecture at the end, reminding us that family is everything. Now, as a mom of three boys, I totally get it. But I’ve added my own twist: family — and Walmart — will always have your back.
Why Walmart? Because my local store is basically open all the time, ready for everything — from last-minute school project supplies to groceries for a bake sale or cleaning supplies for our new puppy. Plus, Walmart’s prices are always a win.
But here’s the real game-changer: Walmart offers ways to stretch your budget even further. I’ve been racking up rewards and savings that add up fast — and make shopping feel less like a chore and more like a win.
Walmart+ — Everyday Savings With Built-In Perks
Think of Walmart+ as a membership that pays you back. For a monthly or annual fee, you unlock free delivery from your store, fuel discounts at participating gas stations, mobile Scan & Go, and access to early product drops.
For my family, the free grocery delivery is huge — especially on those chaotic weeks when someone’s got practice, another has a school project due, and I’m still trying to get dinner on the table
Cash Back With Ibotta — Automatic Rewards on Essentials
If you’re into cash back apps, Walmart partners directly with Ibotta to make saving effortless. You can link your Walmart account, shop like usual, and earn real cash back on tons of everyday products. No scanning receipts, no juggling extra steps. Just savings that land straight in your Ibotta account.
It’s like finding a few extra dollars in your jeans pocket every week — only better, because you can plan around it.
Shopkick: My Favorite Way to Earn Rewards at Walmart—All Year Round
Now, the real MVP is Shopkick. This app lets me earn points (called kicks) just for walking into Walmart, scanning product barcodes, and making purchases — online or in-store. Then I trade kicks for gift cards to tons of popular stores.
Shopkick makes grocery shopping feel like a fun scavenger hunt, and I’m obsessed. Plus, their social media game is strong — I spend way too much time laughing and swapping memes with fellow Shopkickers.
