I think there is a good chance there will be at least a few in the SLC area. I didn't have a clue how many Walmarts there were in the country so just looked it up. Apparently there are 3,561 "Supercenters" (which is what I think most Walmarts are now). So that probably means that all will have some kind of Kobo display — and a little less than a third will have Auras displayed.

BTW: Congratulations on your daughter's wedding.
