Wal-Mart Stores announced on Tuesday it will begin testing a new in-store locker system that will allow a customer to select an item online, ship it for free to a locker at her local store, and pick it up at her convenience.
Wal-Mart's lead e-commerce executives described the program during a presentation on digital strategy to at least 20 reporters in San Bruno, Calf.
The in-store locker program, which will be tested in about a dozen U.S. stores, adds to a growing suite of delivery options now being offered by the company, including free shipping, ship-to-store, and expedited delivery to local FedEx centers.
