Mitch here!
Being a father of two has given me some perspective on just how easy my life used to be. I now actively look for ways to simplify things in the hopes of carving out a few extra minutes of Private Mitch Time. And I need my Private Mitch Time!
Which is why I’m such a fan of Walmart+. For the uninitiated, Walmart+ is a new membership that annihilates every hassle associated with shopping. With it, you get both free delivery from your store on orders of $35+ (restrictions apply) and Walmart+ free shipping with no order minimums on items from Walmart.com (excludes oversized/freight & Marketplace items)—which is just insane. You can get same-day delivery on lots of items from your store, and items from Walmart.com can be shipped with next-day or two-day shipping. (Perfect when you’re really in a rush… which I totally am right now.) The app is super simple to use, and it even offers free returns. I now use Walmart+ for so much of what we need throughout the day, from toothpaste to toddler gear and toys.
In addition to those delivery and shipping benefits, Walmart+ members also receive member prices on fuel at Walmart, Sam’s Club, and Murphy fuel stations… and this is the best part: Walmart+ members can check out on their phone as they shop in-store for a contactless checkout experience. I’ve done it and I’m telling you that it saves an incredible amount of time!
Walmart+ costs just $12.95 per month or $98 per year, and there’s a 15-day trial membership which is a no-brainer for all you last-minute shoppers out there. Signing up for Walmart+ takes about two minutes, and the process couldn’t be simpler. Are you catching my drift? Walmart+ is dope.

As the 2020 shopping season finish line approaches, I’ve collected the best last-minute gifts I could find. Happy shopping!
1. KitchenAid Stand Mixer: The king daddy of all kitchen gadgets, these stand mixers are tough to find this time of year. Walmart+ will have you stand-mixing in no time.
3. Cast Iron Skillet: There are two kinds of people in the world: Those who appreciate a cast iron skillet, and their spouses who put it in the dishwasher. Which side are you on?
4. Swell Bottle: It’s no coincidence that Swell Bottles are perfectly shaped for stuffing stockings.
8. SodaStream: I’m a passionate fizzy water drinker—I have three on my desk as we speak—so this SodaStream speaks to me.
11. Roomba: The best gift in the bunch, our Roomba cleans our floors every night while we sleep. That is if I can remember to turn it on.
15. Giant Box of Legos: When I was a kid, the thought of cleaning up legos stressed me out so much I refused to play with them. True story. Luckily, my kids are more mature than I ever was/am.
17. Affordable TV: Gifting someone a giant TV would be quite the flex.
18. Four Person Tent: My wife hates camping so this four person tent is the top of my list. She’ll come around.
21. Kinetic Sand: Kids these days have it made. On-demand streaming TV, tablets for FaceTiming their friends, and Kinetic Sand instead of Play-Doh. Life isn’t fair.
25. Weighted Blanket: I’m not a member of the weighted blanket club, but if my wife is still reading this post maybe I will be soon. Fingers crossed!
Mitch. OUT!
