It's on the front cover of the 11/04 - 11/10 Ad Circular

Someone posted that they thought that Wal-Mart will have a 32'' LCD TV for just under $400 on Black Friday.

I haven't done too much research on the TV's yet - but if you are going shopping on BF then I would wait until then.

The RCA LCD HDTV 26" at Walmart that was started yesterday was an excellent deal. I went over at 6 a.m. Sunday 11/4 when the ad started and they told me at both Superstores in our city, they were sold out already. My wife checked with them thismorning and found at midnight Sunday morning, they only received 4 units and don't expect to get any more. And there is the fine print on their ad that you can't get a rain check because it was an in store only ad. Walmart send their stupid ad to 30,000 people in town through the mail. I would have had a better change of winning the Powerball lottery. What kills me the most is it was a nice come on ad to get you in the store, but they didn't even have anything comparable to offer. Walmart didn't even offer them on the website.

I did some searching around and found a Sylvania unit at Kmart for only $10 more and ordered that one.

Needless to say, I shop at Walmart all the time and this was the worst thing I have ever seen them pull. I sent an e-mail to everyone at Walmart I could find about this screwing over the public royally.
