Damn a non-AI one of these would be convenient as fuck for hunting season since almost 0 rural stores are open 24-7 and rarely open early enough for a morning turkey or white tail hunt. I'm forgetful as fuck and have 2 years ago maybe I sat in Walmart parking lot from 445am to 8am snoozing till I could buy the .270 ammo I forgo5 at home. Hunting property is 1-1/4hr one way.

Edit: meant to say since the pandemic rural stores arent open 24/7.

walmart was already getting rid of the 24/7 hours before covid. the pandemic didn't have anything to do with the decision. may have sped-up the roll-out some, but they were doing it regardless.

Ah thanks Sam Walton! Lol companies make test changes all the time and renege all the time too. Didn't blockbuster close all locations but 1 fuckin store or was that a family guy episode. The place was packed 24/7 from being the only store for 3 towns around and a bunch of manufacturing plants running 3 shifts. Their subway and deli were 24/7 how many other walmarts had that lol but I'll take your word for it😂
