Walmart to offer daily 'sensory-friendly' shopping hours

During a pilot program, Walmart tried to create a less stimulating environment by dimming store lights, turning off music and adjusting what was shown on TV walls.just on Saturday mornings this summer during back-to-school season. During that pilot program, stores changed TV walls to a static image, turned off the radio and lowered the lights where possible. Starting Friday, Nov. 10, all Walmart stores in the U.S. and Puerto Rico will have sensory-friendly hours from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m.

"We're always open to more feedback from our customers and associates and listening to what else can help create a less stimulating environment during those times," Clark said. Walmart will sell Thanksgiving dinners at a lower price than last year, where the lights are on and the sound is turned down to provide an accepting and comfortable setting for moviegoers.
