02 Walmart+: Big Savings on Grocery Delivery and Fuel Perks
Walmart remains a primary grocery destination for millions of seniors due to its wide selection and low everyday prices. While anyone can access Walmart’s basic low prices, enrolling in Walmart+ provides significant convenience and transportation savings.
A standard Walmart+ membership costs $98 per year or $12.95 per month. The core benefits for seniors include:
- Free Grocery Delivery: Unlimited doorstep delivery from your local store on orders of $35 or more.
- Free Shipping with No Minimum: Orders shipped by Walmart.com arrive with zero delivery charges, regardless of basket size.
- Fuel Savings: Save 10 cents per gallon at over 13,000 participating gas stations nationwide, including Exxon, Mobil, Walmart, and Murphy stations.
- Pharmacy Perks: Enjoy free home delivery on eligible prescription medications filled through Walmart Pharmacy.
- Included Streaming Entertainment: Membership includes access to video streaming services like Paramount+ or Peacock at no extra charge.
To support budget-conscious seniors, Walmart offers the Walmart+ Assist program. If you receive SNAP, WIC, Medicaid, Social Security Income (SSI), or other government assistance, you can verify your status online to receive 50% off membership fees.
This reduces the cost to $49 per year or $6.47 per month.
