- But before Colorado residents start to worry about a run on peanut M&Ms or Alabamians fear empty shelves where crayons used to be, keep this in mind: Walmart is trying to gain ground on Amazon in the web commerce wars. Overall, Walmart still has a big revenue edge -- $486 billion last year to Amazon's $136 billion -- but the Arkansas-based retail giant has significantly beefed up its online strategy.
That includes marketing plays like the data for this report, for which Walmart acknowledges it compiled a top 25 for each state and then "identified interesting top sellers."
That doesn't say much for Vermont, where sweet canned corn is apparently all the rage. Likewise for Pennsylvania and its plastic hangers, and Illinois' unabashed love for erasers.
See the Walmart.com map below for the top items of interest from each state. And, hey Mississippi, can you spare a deep fryer?
