I believe they've sent us something last week about their plans. I'll be posting it in the next day or two in the Online BF Sales forum: http://forums.gottadeal.com/forumdisplay.php?f=87

This file has been floating around for a week or so and has info on where ad items may be placed in-store. Enjoy :) http://www.blackfridayvip.com/wmbfmap.pdf

http://www.afcyhf.com/image-1412508-10607292 Right now the link goes to their general "holiday" page but it will redirect to their BF sale starting on Friday.

The issue is that like with BF ads, the weekly ads for the next 4 weeks until Christmas have also been prepared in advance, so if BF sale numbers are weak, the only real option is to promote extra sales online. There will definitely be BF-"quality" deals in the next month, but there just won't ever be as many as there are on BF. I'd expect the online retailers to really increase their deals after BF as they have the flexibility to change prices at a moment's notice.

scan should be there now. post if there are any problems

Scan is being uploaded. It's a large file, so give it another 4-5 minutes: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/AdScans

In the past doorbusters have been available online (not all, but most). We'll usually get a list of which items will be online a day or two before BF, and we'll post that on here.

Yes, we expect most of the ad items to be available online.

If you are referring to the ad scan, it's not uploaded yet - we're still waiting for Walmart to send over the clear copy. I just pre-loaded the link on that page. If you are referring to the listing, I'm not seeing the error.

I think in this case it was more the fact that the ad was getting leaked and posted everywhere, so they didn't want to punish the sites that were playing by the rules and not posting it.

I'll also update the blurry individual item pics on the site as soon as WM sends over the clean copy of the ad. Should be shortly...

Walmart has given us permission to post the ad before the previous 11/24 date :) http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/BlackFridaySales/Store/WalMart

be patient...
