''The secret of successful retailing is to give your customers what they want. And really, if you think about it from your point of view as a customer, you want everything: a wide assortment of good-quality merchandise; the lowest possible prices; guaranteed satisfaction with what you buy; friendly, knowledgeable service; convenient hours; free parking; a pleasant shopping experience.'' - Sam Walton (1918-1992)

Walmart.com is a lot like your neighborhood Walmart store. We feature a great selection of high-quality merchandise, friendly service and, of course, Every Day Low Prices. We also have another goal: to bring you the best shopping experience on the Internet.
But we think of ourselves, first and foremost, as a retailer. So our ties to Bentonville, Ark. where Sam Walton opened the first store that bore the Walton name and where Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., is still based give us our foundation.
