Surprise, surprise

Walmart breaking the Amazon hold on deliveries. Anyone, including Walmart, can create a delivery. Unexpected idea to me, and good one. Welcome to sandbox.
FedEx is coming to Walmart in the form of internal shops that will help customers print, pack and ship out of 500 of the retailer’s locations nationwide. The pilot, according to news from CNBC — which is being tested at Walmart locations in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Arkansas, Texas and Colorado — has already exceeded expectations. Consequently, the small-format shops will be unveiled at 500 Walmart locations over the course of the nexttwo years.
