Christmas Eve Walmart Spark deliveries went wild. 🎄😳
In this episode, I spend the day running Walmart Spark shopping orders only (no pickups) in rural Alabama, dealing with sold-out holiday items, packed stores, substitutions, and unexpected country road moments — including chickens and a duck in the road.
This video gives a real look at holiday gig work for retirees, showing what Walmart Spark shopping is really like on Christmas Eve. From last-minute gift substitutions and crowded aisles to navigating rural deliveries and app quirks, this is the unfiltered reality of holiday delivery driving.

Along the way, I cover:
• Walmart Spark shopping orders only strategy
• Christmas Eve substitutions and sold-out items
• Why curbside pickups can be a mess on holidays
• Alcohol delivery verification quirks
• A surprise $20 cash tip
• Why I choose gig work flexibility over going back to retail
• Final earnings, tips, and Spark incentives breakdown

If you’re a retired gig worker, a new Walmart Spark driver, a DoorDash driver, or just curious how Spark shopping works during the holidays, this video is for you.

👉 Do you work gig apps on holidays — or stay home?
