The other day this was a wall of books, the next day I go and this appears. Wal-mart (at least mine) now sells ebooks and have their own app. The audios are a pretty penny. Obviously this is bound to happen but I do miss the whole aisle of books. 😅

DivineDiana Oh no! So they decided on one format and not the other?!? 6y
Lovesbooks87 It happened at mine too! 6y
kristincatastrophic The one near me never had a great book selection but now these are creeping in and making it even smaller. ☹ 6y

Birdsong28 What a shame 😔 Nothing beats picking up a book and touching it.📚📖 6y
Ash.on.the.line @DivineDiana they do still have physical books, just much smaller selection now with this in the same aisle. 6y
Ash.on.the.line @Lovesbooks87 I had a feeling it would start creeping out. 6y
Ash.on.the.line @kristincatastrophic Yeah, mine had a decent selection but with this, it has been condensed. :/ 6y
Lovesbooks87 @Ash.on.the.line yea it has been there probably close to a month. It does suck that the book selection have gotten smaller. 6y
Ash.on.the.line @Birdsong28 I know! There are still some to pick up but fewer thanks to this display. 😕📚 6y
LibrarianRyan I read this was happening. But around here the Walmart‘s didn‘t carry books anyway. 6y
Ash.on.the.line @LibrarianRyan how interesting, we have always had a slim selection then they remodeled and made it bigger. Now this has made it smaller again. I have never tried to understand wal-mart‘s marketing techniques. 6y
