I've had this problem at Walmart too. Even though they had it on the shelf they "couldn't" give me that one and I'd have to do the 2-day pick up. I cancelled the order.

My library app has audio books on it. I've never checked one out, but they're definitely on there. Of course, the selection isn't as good as Barnes and Noble, but I'm cheap and like free. Lol
I subscribe to audible through amazon and listen to a ton of audio books. And I was SHOCKED about the thousands our library has, some which I had already purschased. You do have typically place a hold. But they have at least 75% of the same selection, excluding amazon originals of course.

I did check the library but they have one copy for the whole county and its checked out until after I need it. So frustrating!

Walmart has price matched their website for me before.

We subscribe to scribd but they don't have it and our main library in the county has less than 10 kids audiobooks. Very disappointing. This one was checked out.

Our Wal-Mart doesn't even price match at all any more

Cracker barrel has a limited selection of audio books. But you can buy them and return them at any cracker barrel for a refund minus a few dollars for the 'rental'.

I once stood at the check in counter in the lobby of a hotel and made my reservation online for this same reason.
