ourhappyfamily4 Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 My local stores says you have to have the sales ad with you, if it is for a non gracey item. And it has to be the Exact item, and with in 50 miles. ( for BF they will PM with the ad, for the exact item, andif it is a doorbuster you have to be there at walmart buying it at the same time the other store if offering it.)
KBsDarling Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 my first response email wasnt quite that generic it still used the term local but said if i have more questions to contact by replying to email so I did and asked for a definition of Local
allshoppedout Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Just called my store....they don't know anything... I think I might try it worse comes to worse I return them and rebuy them...LoL I quoted this because I am still uncertain if I should try to buy stuff at Walmart today. I have read and re-read nearly every post on this thread...because the add is scanned I am feeling UNSURE if some things are 5-11 sale or not.....I see it'll say 5-11 on one side and not the other......and the border is often green at one top of a page and red on the other. .... So let me see if I buy things that say 5-11....then I cannot adjust them on BF right?Or should I take a chance?
msmama Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Was told tonight that the BF ad is considered a speical ad and price adjusting will not be honor for this ad. I was hoping to get a TV tonight but waiting for BF now.
popeye32 Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Will Walmart match online pricing of products they do carry?Such as Samsung LN40B530 - Found a good deal @ http://mymadprice.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=79 vs Best buy of 714
shanecrow99 Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 As far as I know, Wal-Mart stores will not price match any online stores including walmart.com They will however price match other local stores as long as you bring in the printed ad.
brandonjohnston Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I have a question. I am new to the whole blackfriday thing. I plan on buying the 50" plasma for 598 from Wal-Mart on blackfriday. I was wondering. Is it possible to go buy that now, and then sometime on blackfriday go into the store and get the price adjusted to the sale price? Please...someone help if anyone knows. Thank you so much! -Brandon
shanecrow99 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I don't think that is gonna work bro. The 50" Sanyo Plasma TV model currently in the store is model number: DP50749. The model number of the 50" Sanyo Plasma in the BF ad is: DP50719. WalMart is known for using unique model numbers on doorbuster items to prevent price matching and price adjustments.
shopping4my3son Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Does anyone know if Walmart will PM if there is a rebate involved?? EX: Kohl's will have the Magic Bullet on BF for $39.99 AFTER $20 Kohl's MIR. Walmart has it priced at $47 (regular price). Would I be able to buy it for $39.99 from Walmart? (I would just prefer not to have to do a MIR and I don't really want to go to Kohl's on BF) TIA

bpr Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Walmart's ad this year is claiming on the front page that they will price match. But as stated previously, their numbers are unique on some items, like TVs and computers. Movies and toys usually work good for matching.
jcarr492 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Will walmart price match a hastings ad or HEB ad? hastings has a refurb ipod touch for 159.xx and HEB has the ipod touch for 169.xx(not a refurb) both are the 8gb version like walmarts.
riven3d Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 If the hastings is refurb i would think no, the HEB it depends on if its the exact same and if they are local in your area i would guess
jcarr492 Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 yes, they are local to the area..it is one of our chain grocery stores..and on the front of the walmart ad it states they will pricematch any competitors ad...so I would think so!
miller205 Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 Walmart price matched the iTunes cards at the Target price for me (and before 5am no less!). I just hope that there is no issue like the previous poster had last year.
jade#1 Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 at the store i went to at the chechout line they said that they couldnt price match until later in the day which was a little ridiculous with the line set up they had the lady in front of me said forget it and left the price matching stuff instead
jcarr492 Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 I was able to use the HEB ad for 169.00 for the ipod touch this morning...after a nightmare in electronics. Luckily i was first in line at 12:45am.....but OMG....NEVER AGAIN. Our walmart really dropped the ball this year....everyone and everything was so disorganized.....there was no control.....no communication...and basically the employees were rude, disrespectful..and plain oblivious to any information on WHERE things were in the store....I could go on and on. It was ridiculous. But we got all we needed and I'm glad its over.
tazolover Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 I was able to price match at Wal Mart with no issue this morning. I had all my ads with me, and they gave me the Tinker Bell movie for $13 as advertised in the Target paper. It was the first year I did not have a hassle with price matching there. Best Buy on the other hand, that is another story!
oo7chris Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 I quickly skimmed over this thread but didn't see any answer to my question. Can anyone tell me if Walmart price matches on "buy one get one 50% off" items. I see they don't on buy one get one free but is that the same? Thanks in advance!

Can anyone tell me if Walmart price matches on "buy one get one 50% off" items. I see they don't on buy one get one free but is that the same? Thanks in advance!nope I don't think they will. They won't pm anything bogo and neither will they pm anything % off.
JasonAnna09 Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 Walmart will price match price to price. Walmart considers BOGO and % off ads "gimmicks". However, what our store manager tells cashiers to tell customers is this, "Figure out what the percent off of their regular price is and if we are higher then we will match it. More than most, with their percent5 off ads, our price is usually lower." I have never seen our store match BOGO ads. Albertsons in our area was famous for BOGO ads, but when you really broke it down, WMs regular prices were still lower than their sale prices. Numerous studies have shown that WM grocery prices were on average 7 to 9 percent lower than competitors. Sure, we get beat now and then, but we do price match! :)
JasonAnna09 Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 I really hate to see people have bad experiences with WM. Just goes to show you, how management treats and passes information to associates. The BF plan ran fairly smoothly at our store. Although electronics got a bit crowded. Some management teams don't care about customers and it rubs off on associates.
chr05angel Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 I price match every week to my two other grocery stores in the area- they are just out of my way. my wm price matches generics for great value too!
