So Walmart Plus wins in a pure price war if you consider annual subscriptions, and it’s basically a tie when it comes to rolling monthly subscriptions. Of course, price alone is meaningless without knowing what these services have to offer. Walmart Plus Perks Walmart Plus gives subscribers free and ‘as fast as’ same day delivery on a range of over 160,000 in-store items including groceries, toiletries and a selection of electronics and toys. The ‘as fast as’ disclaimer is likely there to cover Walmart should you place an order at 11:59pm and expect it within 60 seconds, so we’d anticipate this to actually be same day delivery almost all of the time. Alongside the free shipping, Walmart Plus customers also get access to the Scan & Go feature, which lets shoppers use the Walmart app to scan items as they shop for fast, contactless payment. You just scan things as you pick them up and then pay via the app - no need to queue up at the checkout. Handy when you’re trying to stay well away from other people in these current times. The final benefit of Walmart Plus, and maybe the clincher for users who drive regularly, is fuel discounts at Walmart, Murphy USA, and Murphy Express fuel stations. You save 5 cents per gallon at nearly 2,000 gas stations nationwide. That saving could stack up fast. Stay with us, we’re not done. Prime also offers Prime Wardrobe, a service that lets you try out clothes before you commit to buying them. Any clothes item with the Prime Wardrobe tag is included. You order the clothes, try them out and choose what to buy, then send the rest back. Gaming fans can also enjoy Prime Gaming (previously known as Twitch Prime) membership. You get free PC games and loot every month. And if you’re more of a bookworm than a gamer, then Prime Reading gives you access to thousands of books, comics, magazines and more via either your Kindle, or the Kindle app on your smartphone or tablet. With that said, there are some big reasons to choose Walmart Plus. The fuel discount is a major factor for people who drive a lot, and regular drivers could easily make their subscription back in fuel savings alone over the course of a year. Walmart Plus also offers benefits to in-store shoppers with Shop & Go, which is a great time saver if you regularly shop at Walmart.
