Walmart is reintroducing sensory-friendly shopping hours in all of its stores nationwide, following a successful pilot program. The initiative aims to create a less stimulating environment for customers, with changes such as static images on TV walls, lowered lights, and turned-off radios. Sensory-friendly hours will be held from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. every Friday, starting November 10, with no planned end date. The decision was made based on positive feedback from customers who appreciated the more inclusive shopping experience.
