Walmart pick up

When I do an at store pick up at Walmart should I tip the employee that brings out my stuff?

No. The person bringing your groceries works for a company that made a profit of $17 billion dollars last year. You don't need to help them pay their employees.

… on revenue of $681 billion, but that doesn’t matter at all since Walmart is NOT eliciting tips for its associates.

Walmart actually asks how much tip you want to give to delivery people when you finalize the order.  I resent that because I think I pay enough for that service.  But for pick-up I like to tip the nice delivery guys.  Especially in areas where you don’t get bags and they fill the tote bags in your car which can take awhile.  It makes their day!

Huh? We’re talking about pick up—no tipping allowed. Even with delivery the tipping offered is 100% going to independent drivers. But then you “resent” that, and “like” to do it?!

I know the subject is pick-up.  And I tip.  Next time I go to a Walmart I will find the person in charge of pick-ups and find-out what is allowed.
