Regarding the Scene It $25 - I wonder if the Harry Potter Second Edition Scene It Game will be included in the "other selected party games" or if those shown are the only two actual Scene Its that will be $25.

Thanks! I'm so excited that there is a new ad this morning. I only wish they had girl's jeans listed because my dd8 has hit a growth spurt!

I haven't stepped foot in a WalMart since their lawyers contacted Brad, so I couldn't tell you.

By the way, Mr. Thomas' IP address is 24.30.232.108 (which is a Comcast IP from Virginia)
But I'd think someone as esteemed as you sir would have a better e-mail address than [email protected].
Maybe Mr. Thomas is a ticket scalper on the side when he's not doing something else just as shady
(I'm supposed to be typing up more items from the Macy's ad right now, but this is too much fun, lol)

OMG I thought I was the only one with the play-doh phobia!!!
best: I'm still thinking, but probably my EasyShare
worst: One year, Santa brought me a pottery wheel, knowing that I have a horrible phobia of clay/play doh

I received a response from Walmart today about my email that was sent....Just told me that to see Black Friday specials see Walmart online on November 19th.
I got the same form letter from the site. I also got a reply from john simley. It said the exact same thing he is replying to everyone else, but mine did not mention the supposed i.p. ban.
-
Busy emailing everyone else I can get my fingers on. Hope y'all are doing the same!!!

Attention granted!
"Dear Sir,
I am a single mother of two children that uses sites such as gottadeal.com to plan early on how much my Christmas loan will be to give my children nice things for Christmas. Being the sole breadwinner in the home it is very important that I manage my money wisely around the holidays and having your ad as early as possible helps me in this endeavor. I do not understand why WalMart feels that gottadeal.com's early Black Friday ad leak hinders you in any way, other than your having a poor ad compared to other stores. Most times this is not the case and I am not disappointed in your ad. Gottadeal gives you free advertising and gets millions of unregistered visitors to its site daily, along with thousands upon thousands registered users. When you take that amount of people that are known and put them together with the many people who do not use gottadeal that are simply friends and family of registered and unregistered users who depend on loyal WalMart shoppers such as myself to guide them to your store and let them know how much money they will need to be saving, you have many, MANY millions of customers that you are potentially alienating with this horrible marketing move! I have used gottadeal for years to ensure that WalMart will be the first, and most times only place I shop on the day after Thanksgiving. Stores such as Best Buy and Circuit City have let the consumer know that they will not follow your lead and sue when their ad is leaked. This speaks volumes as to how much they value not only their customers, but also gottadeal, etc for the FREE ADVERTISING. I am sending this email to let you know that while I do not endorse a total boycott of your stores en masse (yet), I do strongly suggest that you work with sites such as gottadeal that give you free advertising, not against them. You are collectively showing yourselves to not value loyal customers who support you on Black Friday, along with every other day, year after year."
And yes, I know I was probably not using my best grammar what with the run-on sentences, but y'all, I am HOT!

ONLY 7 EMAILS?! Well, bless his li'l pea-pickin' heart. Sounds like somebody needs some attention. LET 'ER RIP!
-
TYVM for the info!!!
-
BUMP! I am getting my dialing and emailing fingers ready!
Tomorrow is a big day. If we make a lot of phone calls and send a lot of e-mails it will be a clear message to Wal-Mart that we're not just going to go away. And it will really annoy the people having to answer the phones, which is always fun
-
Thanks for clearing that up. I was all set to make this ghost retailer my fave!
I think that quote was made up by the poster and is just the kind of thing they think a retailer should say if they wanted to use this to their advantage.
-
I'd love to know which retailer that quote is from and where I can read it!
I have not waded through all the replies, but:
Another major retail player should be jumping on this with both feet. The Marketing campaign sure could make Wally's look horrible.
"...yes, our BF ad was leaked and posted on the net. But all that does is increase the number of people that see the ad. More people that see the ad, the more people come through our doors. And thats how we make money. And that increase in business was at no cost to us. We didn't require a legal team to send nasty letters to the folks providing us all the free advertising."
-
The last time I tried it at my Kmart they did it! This was NOT on a Black Friday, though. YMMV, of course.
-
I absloutely agree with you!
-
WOOHOO Target! Kick Wally where it hurts!
BTW: Only a few cents higher? Well, I can certainly tell you that with WalMart's whiney attitude, even it was a few DOLLARS higher, Target would get my business before WalMart. Viva la France!
-
Perhaps the prices can be posted as $5.xx, $10.xx, etc. Just thinking here.
