Does Walmart Price Adjust anymore?

I bought the Kodak camera on Walmart's BF sale a couple of weeks ago (it was a daily deal at walmart.com). It came with the accessory package that walmart is now selling seperate for BF. Do you think they would do the price adjust for that? Or will it be a technical thing that they won't adjust for. It's a difference of about $10.

 

OR, since I bought it and had it shipped to store (and don't plan on picking it up until BF), should I just try to get the one on BF and get a refund for the one I already bought?

 

Just wondering what all you shopping experts would do :)

Most stores will not price adjust packages. You're better off returning and rebuying.

Here's the catch...

 

WM price matches. However, most BF items, Walmart tells the manufacturer of the item, "Ok, we want to sell this laptop for $298, take a few features off of it, and we'll sell it on BF for $298". The manufacturer tweaks a few things, removes a few items, changes the model number, changes the UPC code and it no longer is the same item to them, lol!

The rationale is they do not price match themselves because they are not in competition with themselves. That is why walmart and walmart.com do not price match each other. On rare occasions I have been able to talk the store manager into it if they are close to their sales quota for the month, but normally the answer is no.

 

As far as price adjusting, you have 1 day. If you do not catch that window then you have to buy it at the cheaper price and return the other item (they will normally not give you the other item back to go buy unless you work out a deal with the cashier).

Toys R Us has the Nintendo DS games, buy 1 and get one for 50% off. I live about 50 miles from the nearest Toys R Us and only about 10 from a Walmart.

 

Anyone have any idea? It's not a Black Friday ad, but this Sundays paper ad.

 

Thanks!
