(1) Effective May 1, 2010, we implemented a new enterprise resource planning system for our operations in the United
States, Canada and Puerto Rico. Concurrently with that implementation and the increase in system capabilities afforded
to us, we changed the level at which we apply the retail method of accounting for inventory in those operations from 13
divisions to 49 departments. We believe that applying the retail method of accounting for inventory at the departmental
level better segregates merchandise with similar cost-to-retail ratios and turnover and provides a more accurate cost of
goods sold and ending inventory value at the lower of cost or market for each reporting period. We have retrospectively
applied that change

in our inventory accounting, and the selected financial data as of and for the six months ended July 31, 2009 and as of
and for the years ended January 31, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007 shown above reflect the retrospective application of that
accounting change. The data as of and for the year ended January 31, 2006 shown above do not reflect the retrospective
application of that accounting change because all of the detailed historical information necessary to calculate accurately
the effects of that change, if any, on that data is not available. We believe that any such effects would be immaterial to
our historical results of operations and financial condition. The retrospective application of the accounting change for all
other dates, and periods ended, prior to July 31, 2010 for which data are shown above resulted in certain adjustments to

our cost of sales, income from continuing operations, consolidated net income attributable to Walmart and certain other
items for such periods, as well as to the balances for our inventories, total assets of continuing operations, current
liabilities of continuing operations and certain other items at the end of such periods. None of those adjustments,
individually or cumulatively, are material to our financial condition at any date or our results of operations for any
period. As a result, we have not restated our consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended
January 31, 2010 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2010, which is
incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus, to reflect the retrospective application of the accounting
change.

(2) Includes amounts attributable to the noncontrolling interest.

(3) Excludes long-term debt due within one year, which is included in current liabilities of continuing operations.
Effective February 1, 2009, we adopted new accounting principles under which we generally report noncontrolling (i.e.,
minority) interests in subsidiaries in the equity section of our consolidated balance sheet, rather than in a mezzanine section
of the consolidated balance sheet between liabilities and equity. Our consolidated net income is also reduced by the amount
attributable to the noncontrolling interest to arrive at consolidated net income attributable to Walmart. The changes have been
retroactively applied in our consolidated financial statements. As reflected in the tables in "Capitalization" and "Selected
Financial Data" above, we now refer to our consolidated net income as "consolidated net income attributable to Walmart"
and to our total shareholders' equity as "total Walmart shareholders' equity." Income from continuing operations, which
includes amounts attributable to the controlling interest, represents income from continuing operations for the six months
ended July 31, 2010 and 2009 and income from continuing operations before minority interest for the years ended
January 31, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006. The adoption of these new accounting principles did not result in any change
in our results of operations, including the amounts previously referred to as our "net income," or in our shareholders' equity.
In connection with our finance transformation project, we reviewed and adjusted the classification of certain revenue
and expense items within our consolidated statements of income for financial reporting purposes. The reclassifications
impacted net sales, gross margin and operating, selling, general and administrative expenses, but did not impact our operating
income or our income from continuing operations attributable to Walmart. The changes were effective February 1, 2009, and
have been reflected in the selected financial data as of and for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the
six months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009 set forth above.
The above selected financial data for fiscal year 2006 have been restated to reflect the disposition of our South Korean
and German operations that occurred in fiscal year 2007. The South Korean and German operations are presented as
discontinued operations. The above selected financial data for fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006 have been restated to reflect
the impact of Gazeley Limited, a former commercial property development subsidiary of ASDA Group Limited which was
sold in July 2008, and the closure of approximately 23 stores and divestiture of other properties of Walmart Japan in its
restructuring program initiated in the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, as discontinued operations. See our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2010, which is incorporated by reference in the accompanying prospectus,
for information relating to the sale of Gazeley Limited and the restructuring program for Walmart Japan, as well as the
related accounting presentations for these discontinued operations.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES
The following description of the terms and conditions of the notes supplements the description of the more general terms
and conditions of Walmart's debt securities contained in the accompanying prospectus.
The notes of each series will be issued under and pursuant to the indenture dated as of July 19, 2005, as supplemented,
between us and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The 2013 notes, the 2015 notes, the 2020
notes and the 2040 notes are each a separate series of notes under the indenture. The notes of each series will be issued in
registered book-entry form without interest coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. The notes of each series will constitute our senior unsecured debt obligations and will rank equally among
themselves and with all of our other existing and future senior unsecured debt.
The 2013 notes will mature on October 25, 2013; the 2015 notes will mature on October 25, 2015; the 2020 notes will
mature on October 25, 2020; and the 2040 notes will mature on October 25, 2040. Unless previously purchased and
cancelled, we will repay the notes of each series at 100% of their principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, at their maturity. We will pay principal of and interest on the notes in U.S. dollars.
The 2013 notes will be initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $750,000,000; the 2015 notes will be initially
issued in an aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000,000; the 2020 notes will be initially issued in an aggregate principal
amount of $1,750,000,000; and the 2040 notes will be initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000,000.
We may, without the consent of the holders of the notes of a series, create and issue additional notes of that series ranking
equally with and otherwise similar in all respects to the notes of that series (except for the public offering price and the issue
date) so that those additional notes will be consolidated and form a single series with the other outstanding notes of that series
that we are offering hereby. No additional notes of a series may be issued if an event of default under the indenture has
occurred and is continuing.
The notes of each series will bear interest from October 25, 2010 at the annual interest rate specified for notes of that
series on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. Interest on each note will be payable semi-annually in arrears on
April 25 and October 25 of each year during the term of such note, beginning on April 25, 2011. Interest on each note will be
payable to the person in whose name the note is registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding April 15 or
October 15, as the case may be. Interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-
day months.
We will not pay to beneficial owners of notes of a series who are non-U.S. persons any additional amounts in the event
of deduction or withholding of taxes, assessments or other governmental charges imposed by the United States or any taxing
authority thereof or therein. The provisions set forth under "Description of the Debt Securities--Payment of Additional
Amounts" in the accompanying prospectus thus will not apply to the 2013 notes, the 2015 notes, the 2020 notes or the 2040
notes.
None of the 2013 notes, the 2015 notes, the 2020 notes and the 2040 notes will be subject to a sinking fund or will be
convertible into or exchangeable for any other securities. The notes of each series will not be redeemable prior to maturity.
The notes of each series will be subject to defeasance as described in the accompanying prospectus.
If any interest payment date for the notes of a series would otherwise be a day that is not a business day, then the interest
payment date for notes of that series will be postponed to the following date that is a business day. Interest will not accrue as
a result of any such postponed payment. The term "business day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is
neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or required by law or regulation to
close in New York, New York.
