> But when there's a big price difference, say on a high-ticket item, it's totally worth the time because you can save money while walking right out of the store with the item, instead of waiting on shipping.

So high-end baby items (automated swings), TVs, laptops, and the like.

I would rather wait the two days (Prime member) or pay the $4/extra for one day shipping versus having to go to Walmart. Waiting in line for 15-20 minutes to checkout? Possibly not finding the item or its not in stock? Lack of helpful staff (not that I blame them!). Nope Nope Nope.
