Finding Products
Like your local Walmart store, Walmart.com is divided into departments. Each department name appears when you mouse over "See All Departments" in the blue tab at the top-left of every page. To browse in a department, just click on it. We'll show you a list of categories and subcategories in that department. Example: If you were looking for a video game, you would click "Electronics & Office", then "Video Games." From there, you could browse and compare games to find the one that's right for you.

Store-Only Products Listed on Walmart.com
For your convenience, Walmart.com shows products in the Grocery, Health and Beauty, Pharmacy Over-the-Counter and Pets departments that are only available in Walmart stores. You can use these product listings to:
- Research nutritional information, ingredients or product features
- Compare similar products
- Use the Find in Store feature on a product's page to see if that particular product is carried at your local Walmart store
- Plan your next shopping trip to Walmart
Because prices typically vary from region to region and store to store, prices for store-only products are not shown online. Please check your local Walmart for pricing information on these products.

Search Tips
If you have a specific product in mind, you can find it easily by entering its name or a word that describes it in the "Search" box at the top of your screen. If you want to search for a product only in a certain department, such as Books, click on the desired department in the pull-down menu, enter your search term and then click
Go. We'll show you all the products that match the word(s) that you entered for that department.
If you're not sure which department your item is in (for example, Electronics, Music, Movies, Books), leave "All Departments" selected in the search pull-down menu.
Single Word Search
To get the most results, search "All Departments" for a single word. For example, entering "desk" will return all items pertaining to "desk." Searching this way will also display non-products on the site. (For example, a search for "shipping" will find Shipping & Returns information.)
Specific Search
For more specific results, search for one or more words and select a specific department from the pull-down menu. For example, typing "doll" and selecting "Toys" from the pull-down menu will find all the dolls in Toys.

Combination Search
You can search for more than one word at a time.
Hints
- Select a specific department to see products from just one area.
- You don't need to capitalize or pluralize words. Entering "Phone," "phone" or "phones" will return the same results.
- Use specific words if you are searching for specific items. A search for "Polaroid Spectra film" will return better results than just "film."
- It is not necessary to use "and" to link related words (for example, "Sam Walton" is the same as writing "Sam and Walton").
- Search for items containing an exact phrase by using quotation marks. For example, if you're looking for items with the phrase, "Rain or Shine," put it in double quotes so Search finds items with that exact phrase.
