Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is testing its new same-day delivery service of select electronics, toys and other online purchases in 10 markets, including Minneapolis, the Associated Press reports. The "Wal-Mart To Go" program costs $10 for an unlimited number of items. The Arkansas-based discount chain is trying to cater to online shoppers who are turning to retail sites like Amazon.com.

It's still unclear when Wal-Mart will build a proposed Midwest distribution center in Mankato, the Free Press reports. City Manager Pat Hentges told the newspaper nine Wal-Mart executives visited the site this fall, but couldn't "release any specific start date or project date information."

Website research company EyeTrackShop recently took a look at websites for Target and Wal-Mart. It found that 70 percent of the people visiting Walmart.com answered they were ‘likely’ or ‘very likely’ to buy on the site.

Hundreds of residents packed a planning commission meeting to speak out against a proposal to build a Wal-Mart in the city. Residents said they're concerned about traffic, noise, crime and the impact the store would have on local businesses.
