Creator turned frugal Walmart shopping into a seven-figure business

Taylor Mitchell of Greenville, SC, turned a habit of buying affordable clothes at Walmart into a link-in-bio storefront that drives affiliate sales for Walmart and other retailers. She had been a paralegal but stopped working after her daughter was born, and the family once struggled to keep $1,000 in savings and even had to sell a truck to make ends meet.

Mitchell began taking photos during shopping trips and started earning a small income in 2020, enough to help with diapers and groceries. The business grew steadily and then surged in 2025 after she ramped up affiliate marketing through the Later platform; she now reports earning around $100,000 a month.

Her signature style—bright colors and statement pieces—emerged from a postpartum and health journey that included losing weight from over 250 pounds and sharing that transformation online. Years in the mom culture world gave her an eye for items that feel like justified purchases for busy families, from clothing to a hot-pink glider lawn chair she highlighted.
