business news in context, analysis with attitude

•  USA Today reports that Walmart "announced Thursday that it is 'delivering added convenience' with extended store delivery hours, more delivery windows and increased selection for same-day and next-day orders coming from local stores.

"'We are extending our delivery hours by two hours meaning drivers will be making deliveries from stores to doors until 10 p.m. local time,' Tom Ward, Walmart U.S. senior vice president of last mile, said in a blog post Thursday. 'This allows customers to place orders up to 6 p.m. for same day or next day deliveries'."
