Walmart ups the ante in retail battle against Amazon's Prime Day
Chicago
WALMART Stores will offer free shipping with no minimum purchase on all online orders for five days starting on July 11, stepping up its battle against Amazon.com's highly publicized shopping event "Prime Day".
Prime Day is a sales event for members of Amazon Prime's US$99 shipping and digital content service that has turned into a crucial part of the online retailer's growth plan. Amazon expects its second annual Prime Day event on July 12 to be bigger than last year.
