In fact, Walmart is one of the only retailers that will price match competitors' ads on "Black Friday." Customers simply bring in competitors' ads and Walmart will match the price of any identical product right at the register, making Walmart the easiest place to save this holiday season.
Brad Posted November 22, 2010 Author Posted November 22, 2010 Goodies from WM: Also on Friday starting at midnight, Walmart will offer treats and entertainment to customers including 5-Hour Energy, Great Value Breakfast Bars, donut holes, Trident Gum and Hershey Holiday Kisses.
kranky Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Is it true that if the ad you want to PM has specific hours for an item (like 5-8 AM) then you can only PM @ Walmart during those same hours for that item?
tinkrbel Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 This isn't making me feel any happier about getting there super early and being denied access to store manager every time I request it, but maybe it'll distract other ppl in-store.
Illinoismom Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Is it true that if the ad you want to PM has specific hours for an item (like 5-8 AM) then you can only PM @ Walmart during those same hours for that item? Yes this is true
rissa93 Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Is it true that if the ad you want to PM has specific hours for an item (like 5-8 AM) then you can only PM @ Walmart during those same hours for that item? So, I can take the TRU ad with me to the Walmart 12 am start time and get the same price at Walmart for the things available at TRU 10 pm start time? Just making sure I have that clear.
Kandy Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Will walmart match B1G1? You may want to check with your local they don't match free stuff here.
vhoperformance Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 It may be different at other stores, but the ones in North Texas do not match B1G1.

Just making sure I have that clear. Yes as long as the store is open and they are selling the item at that time, walmart will match it, I did that last year with memory cards
Illinoismom Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 It may be different at other stores, but the ones in North Texas do not match B1G1. No Walmart matches bogo, they also do not price match other walmarts
KBsDarling Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Walmarts (have never known any of the 5-6 we BF at) will not do % off or B1G1 or Gift card or anything like that. They will ONLY match a 100% stated price for an EXACT item. I have had issues at 1 of the WMs argue w/ me when it says "save over 50%" with a price right there since it was a larger font type for the % then stated price....as much as I was impressed with the cashiers attempt to shut me down on a PM I do not think her manager appreciated having to come over and "ok" the sale. Manager: it says the price Cashier: but it says % off Manager: but it says the price RIGHT THERE Cashier: <blank stare> Manager <angry stare back> I love that WM PMs I appreciate it to no end. Its why they get 99% of my BF $ BUT I do wish things weren't as interpretable and the cashier were bettered versed on company policy. The whole "local" issue drives me buggy. 1 store basically will do it if you can bring in an ad. Have had others that CALL to get a mileage from CS.....
amyers12345 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 All of Walmart stores are supposed to follow a corporate policy when it comes to accepting coupons and pricematching. Print your copy of the pricematching policy here: http://walmartstores.com/7659.aspx and take it with you in case you run into any problems.
debnmark Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 the press release mentions "•All Nintendo Wii gaming systems – $199 with $50 Walmart Gift Card" starting at midnight. am i blind... i don't see this in the ad scan???

I don't see it either. Maybe it's part of some last minute deals still to be announced.
debnmark Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 At least I know I'm not blind. If they did do this it would save me a trip to Meijer which is a much farther trip.
sigrist_2000 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 i like the miejer deal better, less money out of pocket...but i guess if u can get it then it turns out to be the same especially if u shop wallys enough ...may have to think about it also walmart is advertsiing on their tv ads about pricematching
DiamondGal Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 So Walmart's black Friday sale starts at midnight?? I read in a couple of the posts here something about buying something as a price match at midnight, and a Wii system at midnight - it used to be 5am - did they change it this year? I would be so happy if they did - I'd just shop there and not even go to bed. I never can sleep anyway:rolleyes:

And one at 5am.
ecb12 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 So can I price match at midnight for other stores that aren't open yet or do i have to wait until 5 AM?
missyj94 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 If you are matching Target for example, and there sale starts at 4am, you usually have to wait until 4am at Walmart to PM the item for that Target price.
1whodatdare Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 The thing that really irks me about Wal-Mart is this... The ACER netbook that was on sale at Target, and is going to be on sale at Radio Shack on BF is not carried by them. Of course, that is only in numbers sense. I mean here is the item number for the target/shack: Acer® Aspire® One AOD255-2331 10.1" Netbook Of course, walmart has the same one, but numbered: as 255-random 4. Same with that Toshiba from Best Buy. Walmart changes the last two numbers. it 89 (or something like that) at BB, but Walmart flips the last two numbers as 98. So, they don't really price match the good stuff
Lvnlakers78 Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I got a flyer in the mail today from walmart and it says...Shop our store with their ad! Bring in any local: Ad Price...Hot Price...$$ off offer...Preferred Card...Coupon...Buy one, get one...Free Shipping...Manufacturer Coupon...1 day event...Gift card offer...club card... Temporary...Catalinas...Member Only...competitor rain checksWE WILL MATCH IT!*Walmart does not honor competitor mail-in rebates I will be keeping this with me on BF just incase I run into any problems with price matching!!
laniebean Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 We do not honor competitor advertisements from outside of the store's or Club's local trade territory. is the one that always gets me cuz walmart is the only store in my town.. the closest big town is Reno nv 80 miles away
siczlo Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I got a flyer in the mail today from walmart and it says...Shop our store with their ad!

Can you scan and post that please?
allshoppedout Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Just want to confirm what time the doorbuster hour is at each of these stores:Kmart, Best Buy, Target, I came up with:I saw Kmart listed 5-11 Target 4-10 and Best buy begin at 5 but end? I need walmart to pricematch 1 thing from each of those stores to make my life super easy, so I want to make sure I am there in the time frame to cover all 3 stores doorbuster hours. If I am there between 530 - like 9:00 a.m. Walmart should be able to adjust all things from each of those ads, right?

So according to this they will be matching gift card offers?? Would this work with store gift card offers with purchase? I would love to have a copy of this :)
RaineeDay1 Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 wow if wm pricematches BOGO or % or GC they will rock this years sale as never before.. I price match every year and actually all year long and if this is true i will need more money
