Naturally I don't exactly agree with everything she preaches, but I'm sure she'd acknowledge that every writer and author is different.

App Review: Like the Store Itself, Walmart's App is a One-Stop Shop

by Fioney Staff
First off, I don't frequent Walmart very often. This is mainly because the chain is actually pretty sparsely located around Los Angeles. However I've recently found myself interested in their proprietary mobile payment solution cleverly dubbed Walmart Pay, which recently rolled out nationwide.
