Walmart Same-Day Rx Delivery, Bed Bath’s Return & WTF Is Amazon’s Grocery Strategy

In this week’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five news roundup, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Ownit AI, Avalara, Mirakl, and Ocampo Capital, A&M’s Lakshman Lakshmanan and Chris Creyts, joined Chris and Anne to discuss:

  • The wide-ranging significance of Walmart offering same-day prescription delivery and making it free for Walmart+ members (Source)
  • Amazon’s new “Amazon Grocery” store in Chicago and how it fits into Amazon’s growing ever more confusing grocery strategy (Source)
  • If U.S. consumers really need a new, smaller incarnation of a Bed Bath & Beyond store (Source)
  • BuyBuy Baby shuttering all its stores and whether going it alone via online is a good long-term solution (Source)
  • And closed with an examination of why in the world Chick-fil-A would launch a new entertainment app (Source)

There’s all that, plus we rank Halloween candy, discuss which food we would most like to bring with us into space, and pay homage to the LinkedIn Lunatics subreddit!
