Walmart shelves are often empty. It happens enough that I've learned to watch the pattern so I can guess when to stock up on certain things. Don't bother asking the staff, they "don't know" when the next shipment is coming or what will be in it.
I haven't figured out why this happens, but my guesses are either or both of
1. The Walmart is too small for the customer base. (Safeway is on their third store, each bigger than the last.)
2. Mainland shipping capacity is inadequate. (This should affect other retailers, but Walmart seems to suffer the most.)
