I don't have a local Walmart, so my only experience has been ship-to-home. I believe all or almost all the items I've bought through the web site have come via FedEx.
I've had a lot more problems with Amazon shipping (of course, I've had a lot more items shipped from Amazon). Whenever Amazon sends something other than via UPS, FedEx, or USPS, it can be a bit of a crapshoot.
