Walmart is now doing one-hour home delivery in Kamloops, Kelowna

KAMLOOPS – Shopping at Walmart might just be a lot less stressful.

The retail shopping giant has added most of B.C. and 200 locations across the country to its delivery service after a trial in Winnipeg and in the Greater Toronto Area.

The Walmart stores in Kamloops, Kelowna and West Kelowna are among the 31 locations in B.C. that will offer the service. You have to download the Instacart app or go on their website, select your purchases, and then set their preferred delivery time. Some deliveries can come in as fast as an hour, or you can set a date and time that better fits your schedule.

Instacart offers grocery delivery from various stores across the country, with users selecting their location and preferred store. The app is free to download, but there is a cost for delivery. A shopper will collect the chosen items and deliver them whenever it is specified. The Walmart partnership will allow users to access a greater number of goods such as groceries, health and beauty supplies, pet food and accessories, and more.
