I don't go at the crack of dawn anymore. Last year I went I got to our Walmart at 7AM and they still had all of the toys I wanted. So this year I went with my 6 year old daughter at 7AM and it was very pleasant. Not much different than a normal Saturday afternoon at a Walmart. We had a fun Mommy-Daughter shopping morning. We got a few toys for gifts and loaded up on the $2 & $6 DVDs. We then headed to Kohl's and got some a few more toys for gifts as well as our Church's Angel Tree donations. We also took a break to go out for breakfast at Perkins. We walked around Best Buy for a while, picked up a Panera gift card for the teacher and then left a little after 11AM. But then I got home only to read this article! "Strong-arm robbery reported at Delafield Target": http://www.jsonline.com/news/35219914.html YIKES! That's all in the same shopping area where we were shopping all morning!

I'm looking forward to the Kohl's ad. I've got my 15% off coupon to use that day there. They always seem to have the best deals!

I sent my "expression of displeasure" via their feedback form. I suggested that perhaps I shop at Target instead.

I just got back from doing some basic shopping at WM tonight and they had everything boxed up in pre-printed boxes that said "Return for Credit" - TONS of Pallets of these boxes were EVERYWHERE. If these boxes were pre-printed, then they KNEW they were going to have left overs.

I remember my Wal Mart last year had a bunch of the doorbusters left - even at 8PM. I think they just over-buy.

Is it Eastern - 5AM? Or something else. I can't find it. Their site says they are in CA (Pacific time), but their customer service number is Central time. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/catalog.gsp?cat=542416

Disney Movies go back in the "vault" after a certain time. Only one major animated movie is out for release at any given time like Cinderella, Little Mermaid and Alladin. I'm a Disney Movie Club member and they don't even have them (the major animated ones) available. Your best bet is Ebay. You will most likely have to pay a premium for them, not a discount -- sorry. :)

Got mine today too! However, I just saw on TV that kohl's is having a big 50% off sale tomorrow! Might want to check it out again --- sigh...Kohl's has ALOT of my money right now! :)

I'm pretty sure the ones at WM were the plain leapsters, I remember seeing them on clearance a while back. The one I got at Kohl's was the L-Max. I picked it up yesterday and used my 20% off coupon. There were only 3 left - well 2 now that I got one :) Then on BF it's $69.99 without coupons. Still a good deal!

Got it - it's in hand now. Lucky me there were only 3 left. --- Good bargains to be had at Kohls through tomorrow with their "kohl's card user discount."

Pays to do your research: I just called my local Kohl's. They have it in stock and it's on sale TODAY. I'm bringing in my (hard piece of paper) coupon for 20%, (crossing my fingers for the 30% off scratch off) and geting it for $64 TODAY!

Oh yes that 30% off coupon is REALLY a steal! There are some things though that will be better on BF with the 10% off coupon, so I'm glad I have one more day with taht 30% off coupon to plan.

RE: Leapster L-MAX on the kohls.com website, I haven't seen it yet. Right now I have a 30% off online coupon, but haven't seen the L-Max or any leapster for that matter. I've never seen it lower than $80 in any store. Plus I have my 10% off coupon so the total price will be only $63 on BF at Kohls. Have you seen it less than $63? Do tell.

I've been WAITING to see the L-Max on sale on BF. Kohl's will be my first stop. Do you think I need to be there at 5AM for the L-Max?

This code was AWESOME. I saved $95 last night! There are so many things on sale already and then another 30% - it's great!
