Have y’all seen this?!
Walmart is rolling out self-service kiosks called Pickup Towers that will actually retrieve your online order for you – these machines are currently located in 20 stores with plans to add them to 80 more stores across the country over the next few months. These massive 16 feet tall structures are located near each store entrance for convenience. To retrieve your pickup order, just scan a barcode on your purchase receipt, a door on the machine opens, and the items appear on a conveyer belt.

Walmart is also testing new approaches in two recently opened supercenters in Tomball, Texas, and Lake Nona, Florida. These stores offer Scan & Go technology (just grab a Scan & Go wand when you enter the store and then use the Scan & Go fast pass checkout lane), Ordering Technology (just place your order, go shopping and then come back to quickly pick it up) and Next-Gen Call Buttons that allow you to press a Wi-Fi-connected call button and which alert associates wearing GPS-enabled devices that assistance is needed.
