BENTONVILLE - In the fight for online shoppers, Walmart has one thing Amazon doesn't: stores. And they have lots of them.

The retail giant is taking advantage of its one upper hand with a new way to get discounts when you shop online. For 10,000 of the most popular items sold only on Walmart.com, you'll get a discount if you ship them to a local Walmart store instead of to your own address.

"This is consistent with Walmart's long heritage," said Marc Lore, president and CEO of Walmart U.S. e-commerce and the founder of Walmart's acquisition Jet.com.
