The best and worst days to shop for groceries at Walmart and Target
As many as 74 percent of us still go to a physcial store over a delivery service.
Delivery service is so convenient if you’re sick or just need a break from people but it turns out the majority of Americans still go to the grocery in person. According to Drive Research, 74 percent of us still go to a physcial store.
That means grocery aisles at big-box stores like Walmart and Target can get pretty crowded. To save you some time, Drive Research also did a study to determine when stores are most crowded.
The worst time to go to a physical store is Saturdays between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., the study said.
“So try for an early morning, late afternoon, or early evening grocery trip if you have to pick up groceries on the weekend,” according to an article by AOL.

“If you can swing it, visit on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, the least busy times to shop at Walmart,” the AOL article said. “Mornings also tend to be less busy than afternoons.”
