i am seeing unofficial reports that they are going to have the Wii for $199 plus a $100 gift card (just like the XBox deal). These are just rumors, so I do not know for sure.

I read in another thread that someone had posted, "they are doing a secret saturday sale every saturday on select item(s) up to black friday."
i just have got off that thread, it seems like a good idea. do you remember the xbox 360 sale? $299 and a $100 gc? They said it was happening this weekend with the nintendo wii, just the wii is going to be $199 with a 100 walmart gc.

If that is true I am going to be there Saturday. We want a Wii bad but have been waiting. I wont wait anymore. I will take that gift card and buy us a games and a remote and still have some for a present for someone else.

OMG if that Wii deal is true, I am ALL over it. Will it go live on the website at midnight on Saturday morning? I need to be watching! Or is it in-store only? If it's true, will it be the 8am time like last week? Gosh, I am excited!

When I was in the store last Saturday morning, the manager told me that this coming Saturday they were having all kinds of cell phones. He didn't mention anything else, but then again, I didn't ask.

Last week Brad posted the "One Day In-Store Specials" on Monday, 11/2 for the Saturday, 11/7 sale.
While the cell phone/toy ad says "in-store special only", the Blackberry cell phones are a week long sale. At the bottom of the ad it says: "Event Dates: 11/14/09 to 11/20/09 starting Sat. Nov 14th at 8:00am."
Still have fingers crossed that maybe later today, or tomorrow we'll see some more one day in-store specials... :holiday04

I honestly don't think that's a "Secret Saturday Sale". If there isn't anything else that comes out as being on sale Saturday than I say that last weekend was the only Saturday Sale. :(

Last week's sale was a week long sale, too. The sale items start on Saturday, but if you can still find an Xbox or laptop today, you'll get the discounted price or promo.
Last week's ad also said In-Store only.
The TV commercials are even saying that this is the Secret Saturday Sale.
They did this last year.. threw out one good week 3 weeks before BF and the others sucked.

There is no " Secret Sale ". Every sale Wal-Mart has had thus far as been posted online and on TV. And it's not really a Saturday sale either.. the sale STARTS on Saturday, but last for days. You just most likely won't be able to find the items if they are hot after that day because they will be sold out. The only true Sat. sale is the Deal of the Day for that day which is also listed on their website.

My mom is a manager in FLA and she tells me that her store just got in a half a truck of Wii so... maybe the wife will finally get one.

I just checked out on the wal_art website their ad for 11-15 through 11-21. For those of us looking for a deal on the Wii it looks like we are out of luck for now. They have the Wii listed in this ad but for the normal $199 price without any type of bundle. :(
We can only hope for a BF deal from Wal.

I wish they'd quit sticking the hamsters on the ads. They don't even get on the shelves around here when the dozen or so does come in. But there seems to be a lot of stockmen in town who have the things for sale.

I just noticed the same thing so I called my Walmart and the toy department manager said that was last week and they only got six. I could have sworn they had it listed for tomorrows add Am I crazy or are they just trying to make up for a mistake. Maybe it is there way of polling how many people actually plan ahead for their adds. I know I saw it listed to tomorrow

And to think I told my kids they could not have friends sleep over tonight because I was going to be waiting at walmart early tomorrow morning. I am glad I did not get up at four just to find this out tomorrow! I think that I will get my weekly supplies at Target this week just to spite them. I doubt they will care though.

walmart does not order anything.. they get what they get.. I called at 8am this morning talked to the store manager he said as of then they had NONE in the store and I could call back after 4pm and see if the truck had any on it. as of 5:30pm they have zero in the store..i see why they removed it from the site
marshmallowpuff
11-13-2009, 4:44 PM
Wal-Mart does order some things. Yes for some things they 'get what they get', but they can ask for certain things for sure...we request things all the time.
okay, so I just learned what Zhu Zhu pets are and called my local Wal-Mart. They do not have them and will not have them as they are "saving them for a big shopping day like Black Friday." That's a quote from the service desk clerk. Don't know if it's tru but that is what she said. It was a Massachusetts store.

Well,m I just got back from our local Walmart and the staff would only say they are expecting a good deal but wouldn't go any further than directing me to the Tom Turkey deal they have going at .40 a pound, two per person limit but I will be up early ready to go! Last week at a great deal on the game system and gift card!

I heard the same thing. If they are saving them for black friday and actually going to put them in that ad, I certainly hope they all have a few hundred of them plus the accessories and not the typical 4 accessories and 6 hamsters. That will just turn into a pure craziness with fights I'm sure!

I asked if there would be a line for them and I was told the lines would be for the big ticket items like t.v.s, computers not htese

I'm at a small town in Wisconsin, asked our service desk if they had any Zhu zhu, the response: "what are they called? never heard of them, no we don't have them". Then, "what are they?". LOL Truly had no clue.

All smart phones are required to have a data plan as of September of this year. As long as you have the phone activated on your line it must have a data plan on it.
That is with AT&T/Cingular.

We have two smart phones and we do not have the data plan and we are with AT&T. We did have it when we first bought the phones but had to do some cutting back so we do not anymore.

If you had smart phones on your lines before September then you were grandfathered in. If you purchase a new smart phone or add an additional line, you will have to have the $30 data plan. I just went through this with AT&T last month.

If you purchased your smart phone prior to September then you are grandfathered in to the old system. Any smart phone purchased after September 1st of this year is required to have a data plan. Thats what the AT & T rep told me.

you can do it online yourself from verizon, on right hand side click "activate my phone" and follow steps, its pretty simple.
