  1. Just call 1-800-Walmart. The whole point of the wristbands is to make the shopping experience a little easier for the customer and relieve overcrowding and congestion in the store.
  2. Each store was sent a supply of guarantee cards but can print extra in store if need be.
  3. yes, you can take them back and get a full refund. Don't open them.
  4. The store I work at had no copies of Brave with other BF movies. However, the copies on the shelf in the electronics department were ringing up $8.96. Ask someone to check the price. Don't assume because there's NOT a colored sticker on the box it's not going to ring up the sale price.
  5. The Wii U is compatible with Wii games so this can be used with the Wii U.
  6. Most Supercenters are open 24/7 with the exception of blue laws, and Christmas eve from 6pm-December 26th 6AM. Since I work there I have to be there Thanksgiving night. I enjoy watching people act crazy. If I didn't work there I'd be visiting with my family. I'd NEVER brave the crowds shopping at Walmart on BF. No way.
  7. 17+ years, Tennessee. In my area it would be impossible to make this much money, even at a factory. As long as we work our scheduled day before the holiday, the holiday if scheduled, and the scheduled day after the holiday, we get holiday pay.
  8. I guarantee that if NO ONE shopped on Thanksgiving NO retailer would open. If you don't like the hours, DON'T SHOP on Thanksgiving. Last I looked, slavery was outlawed. If you don't like where you work, QUIT. What benefits do I get at Walmart? 40K/yr salary (I am NOT salaried), 4 weeks PAID vacation, PAID sick time, PAID personal time, insurance that costs under $35/month. Don't believe ALL the union propaganda. Oh yeah, I also get a 10% discount year round. During the middle of Novermber-January 1st we get 10% off groceries. If we work from 7pm-7am Thanksgiving/BF we get 1 transaction in December (6th or 7th) at 20% off.
  9. I ALWAYS take in competitor ads when I work Black Friday. One reason is for ME. I price match. The other reason is for my customers. One year I saved a lady lots of $$ because almost every video game and movie she purchased was on sale at another retailer unbeknownst to her. I really like saving people money. At my store we have NEVER taken anything off the shelp because it was cheaper at another retailer. I can't speak for the entire Walmart company as a whole.
  10. If your layaway items are the exact same things on sale BF if you pay off the layaway that day the prices should automatically adjust. You may have to cancel the layaway and put it all back on, but I'm not sure. The best advice is to go into the store and talk to the store MANAGER. He or she should be able to make the decision that is best for you, as a customer, to keep you happy.
  11. I am surprised that their loss prevention associate didn't see their antics. In our store (as most stores), things accidentally get broken, but not intentionally broken. It's crazy that these kids would do this. Glad they were fired.
  12. After working BF at WM for several years it's always a given that we'll have a TV, mini appliances, towels, sheets, etc.. It amazes me how fights break out over the towels and mini appliances. The towels are not of the highest quality. The mini appliances usually start getting returned 2-3 months later. Hope everyone has a safe BF/Black Thursday!!!!!
  13. I have a Magic Bullet and love it. I was thinking of getting one for a family member. They are regularly $49 @ WM.
  14. The Walmart I work at is in a rural part of the south. Although Target, TRU, and BB are 30 miles away we will match competitor prices on BF. Remember, the item(s) MUST be the EXACT model #, etc... If an item comes with a gift card at a competitor, you wouldn't get a GC, just the price of the item, hence, PRICE MATCH. No percent off either. The ad MUST show a price. Unbelievably, some people can't comprehend the item they are wanting to match must be THE EXACT SAME ITEM.
  15. I want to buy some of the video games and movies but since I work for Walmart during the sale hours they are usually gone when I can get off the clock. No biggie. I have plenty already. Looks like I will be working 6pm-3am Thanksgiving day. Gives me time to go home, take a nap and go shopping at other stores. I like the new hours because my family eats early on Thanksgiving.
  16. There's going to be an even better WM CC promotion soon. (before BF).
  17. On that day anyone that works retail MUST have a positive attitude. I laugh a lot and I also do EVERYTHING I can to help people. I love to shop so if someone has a problem or concern I put myself in their place. If customers ask for something or have a request I am not authorized to take care of on my own, I get a member of management. After all. I know who's paying me. YOU!!!
  18. I love the hours. Since I work there I get to see all kinds of people act silly. Getting paid to be entertained.
  19. I may go for the game also. It's regularly $59.99. I ordered a copy with my new Wii U system but can always return it and keep the free copy.
  20. No. Too early. More than likely the store has no room for the TV's in the backroom. I work at a smaller Supercenter and normally BF tv's come in on 1 trailer a few days before the sale. Trust me. There is no room in most WM stores receiving areas for all the stuff for BF.
  21. You were misinformed. BF items have the same return policy as any other item purchased.
  22. Yeah. Unions are wonderful. Ask anyone at GM or Chrysler. LOL.
  23. One thing about buying at Walmart if you buy something and it tears up months later, just take it back and act like a baby and threaten to call home office. They will take it back. Trust me. After working there numerous years I have witnessed holiday items being returned after being purchased several years earlier.
  24. I work for Walmart. On our internal intranet it was posted that Walmart will no longer sell Amazon products (Kindles. etc) When current stock is depleted it will not replenish.
  25. We had very few problems. I think people should be held accountable for their actions. However, when you get a large number of people in a confined space things can happen. I wish things were more spread out. We had towels and sheets right beside each other. Big mistake.
