Er...no.

The stated reward is only for clothing. Other stuff earns less.

Did you send this to "Consumer Reports" George?

It's perfect for the Ad Exposures on the Back Inside Cover!
I made the mistake of buying some stuff from Walmart via the AGR portal. I received a lower reward than expected, and then, looking at the "terms and conditions" I realized I had been ripped off inadequately informed.

So, for routine stuff, I use Jet.com, Target, etc.
 
It may be less, but the reason I like to use Wal-Mart is that I can order it on line, and by the time I drive to the store that day it's ready. And I still earn AGR points for it! (No waiting a few days or more.)

I've wondered about that drive-up service Walmart has. How do you notify them you're there to pick up your order?
Wal-Marts may vary on how this works but at the one I shop at I go to the customer service desk and provide them with the order number. Works like a charm! :)
 
Same here (almost).

Mine is in the back of the store, I give them the order number and collect my stuff! Today I picked up 4 separate orders, very easy & I earned AGR points! (I was thru American Airlines, and my <$5 purchase extended my 88K frequent flyer miles with them. :) )

George, is this Walmart "fine print" newly revised? Had a non-clothing purchase (a watch) a month ago that was definitely 2 points (perhaps a watch is considered "clothing").

A couple of weeks ago, a purchase produced a noticeably lower amount of points.

I too take advantage of Walmart's pick up at store service and get the points too! I've also done that with Best Buy and Home Depot.

I believe it's an older policy. I tried to search for my AGR points for a Walmart transaction, but the site wouldn't allow me to change dates after a few searches.
