Walmart is holding sensory-friendly shopping hours on Saturday mornings at most stores for the back-to-school shopping season. Walmart said the shopping hours are part of its efforts to create "a quieter shopping environment that's more enjoyable for customers who live with sensory disabilities." A sign at Walmart's entrance advertised the store's sensory-friendly shopping hours. I don't have a sensory disability, but I found shopping during the sensory-friendly hours a calmer experience overall.
