Hello

 If you try to directly click this URL https://www.walmart.com/ will it try to redirect you to another website?

You may also want to consider clearing the cache and cookies of your MS EDGE Browser and here's the guide https://support.microsoft.com/en-ph/help/10607/...

You may also consider running a Full Scan of your Antivirus Software just to make sure its not a malware(Trojan) that tends to redirect you to a promotional website. Here's also an additional scanner for free that will help a lot in removing such redirect threats.

Please let me know if you have further more questions with this and I will try to reply back as soon as I can.

Regards and stay safe.
