Walmart has launched a new “Pay with Cash” option for its Walmart.com customers. Online shoppers can now pay for their purchases with cash at any physical Walmart location. At checkout, web shoppers who choose “cash” as the payment option will receive an order number and an email receipt. Customers then have 48 hours to present that order number at the cash register of any physical Walmart store to complete payment, at which point the shipping process is initiated.
Walmart says its decision to offer a new payment option is motivated by FDIC statistics on the underbanked. The FDIC estimates that 25 percent of U.S. consumers have limited banking options, and therefore prefer cash to make purchases. The release also revealed that just 15 percent of Walmart transactions are completed with credit cards.
A full release announcing the new feature is available at Walmart.com.

Check out this video for more information. Google Drive also offers “cloud type” storage that will will easily store a copy of your backOffice™ data file.

Retailers including Target, Macy’s and Limited Brands reported stronger-than-expected sales gains for February, buoyed by Valentine’s and Presidents Day holidays and strong demand for spring clothes as the warm winter continued. “We saw good consumer response to our early spring deliveries in women’s apparel, and continued strong trends in accessories, shoes, cosmetics, men’s and home, which bodes well for the months ahead,” said Macy’s chairman and CEO Terry Lundgren.
I really like the first one on the list! If you are adding a C-Store location or simply wanted to make your existing store more profitable, backOffice™ Software from Insight Retail Software is a great tool for you. Our powerful software with affordable price levels is a perfect fit for the single store or chain of stores.
JERSEY CITY, N.J. — Legislative battles and a still-struggling economy marked a year of ups and downs for the convenience store industry in 2011. Now, with the new year upon us, the editors at Convenience Store News offer their top 10 predictions for the industry in 2012.
1. More buying and building of stores. 2011 saw a rush of both acquisition activity and new builds in the industry. Expect that to continue. The industry is still highly fragmented and many retailers have stated their intentions to grow and then grow some more

On a recent trip to Northern Arkansas we visited this Dry Goods Store, which was like walking into a museum. Although this guy was able to successfully sell Tim a nice pair of leather gloves, this register setup is not ideal for the average retail store. I did however enjoy watching the old machine work!
