Walmart Just Made A Huge Change To Its Return Policy & Customers Are Freaking Out

Walmart made changes to their return policy with the safety of customers and employees in mind.

The company's statement reads: "We are temporarily not processing returns/exchanges in our stores of: Food, Paper Goods, Home Cleaning Supplies, Laundry Soap, Pharmacy, Health & Beauty and Apparel."

The statement also encourages to check the status of their return online before coming into a store.

It continues, "If you need to return any item, including those above, and have a receipt, please start the return on the Walmart app or at Walmart.com. It's easy and may allow you to complete your return without coming to the store. If you're not able to return the item online, don't worry! Once returns reopen for impacted categories, we will be extending the return period by 6 weeks for those items."

Walmart is not the only retailer to change their return policy. Many other retailers, including Target, have decided to take similar measures in changing their return policies.

This is not the only Walmart policy to have a recent update. They also have recently implemented a mandatory mask policy for customers (though it's still unclear how strictly this will be enforced).
