Don’t despair if you had other things to do on Saturday, though. It is never too late to shop for bargains, and the world’s largest retailer, Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE: WMT) wants to be sure and wring the last possible dollar out of consumers as Christmas day approaches. The company’s website is offering last-minute gifts that can be ordered online and shipped in time to arrive by Christmas day. Customers can also order items online and pick them up at the store.
Here is a random sample of some of the last-minute gifts available:
- An Xbox One from Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) bundled with “Assassin’s Creed 5: Unity” is available for $349, marked down $50 from the list price. To get it by Christmas Eve adds $15.38 for expedited shipping and $21.36 for Rush shipping.
