Pizza Chain Opening New In-Store Locations at Walmart
A popular pizza brand will make its way into select Walmart stores by the end of 2024, offering shoppers a new spot to enjoy pizza, wings, salads, and sandwiches. As a kid, I can vividly remember shopping at Walmart in Vincennes, Indiana, with my parents. In the early 2000s, there was a McDonald's location in the back of the store, which meant I was treated to a Happy Meal at the end of our shopping excursion. It's been several years since that area of the store was replaced with a Walmart Deli, which I even worked at briefly during my first semester or two of college. However, a remnant of the McDonald's era still remains, as the company's logo is enshrined on one of the electrical panel boxes in the back of the store.
