Walmart Plus week dates released, Amazon Prime now including a Grubhub Food Dillery subscription,

How cool is that? Pretty cool, I think.

Hello everybody and welcome to another episode of the series' sellers podcast by Helium 10.

I'm your host, Bradley Sutton, and this is the show that is our Helium 10 weekly buzz, where you give you a rundown of all the new stories that are going on in the Amazon, Walmart, and e-commerce world.
