Weird,
princessbsl45 Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 I am wondering if this is a misprint. The TRU Toy Book has it for $89.97. Which is the online Walmart price!
mju Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 I just went into Walmart this morning to get an ad to price match. No ads available, but they had 4 sets on the shelf. They rang up $39.96! The sign on the shelf was still regular price. Thank you so much Revecca!
tiffiebaby Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 Went into Walmart also and the price at register was 39.96. Thanks so much. Great deal!

Which is the online Walmart price!You have to look on Walmarts Ads online. It's in the last couple of pages. I'm not sure if Walmart has the ads in their stores yet.
revecca Posted October 21, 2012 Author Posted October 21, 2012 my daughter will love it if it works.If you have a Walmart in your area check it out. Again, not sure if Walmart put their ads in their stores yet. I just happen to see it on their ads on their website (online).

It's in their ads online, but yet they don't have it on sale on their website. They also don't have the ads in their stores yet, and they don't have the items priced so you have to take the item up to the register. Again, Weird!!!!
revecca Posted October 21, 2012 Author Posted October 21, 2012 Went into Walmart also and the price at register was 39.96. Thanks so much. Great deal!Glad that a few of you are able to get in on this!
princessbsl45 Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Got mine today!! Conviently there was a different box put in front of the 3 Mine boxes they had. Not sure if that was done by an employee or just someone hoping they would still be there when they came back! GREAT deal!!
mom2monkiesx3 Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 oh I am so going to head to Walmart and try this RIGHT NOW, thank you !!
rn2003az Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Be careful. I think they're catching on! My DH went to our only local store that had one in stock. The nice guy in the toy dept put it at the CS desk for him to grab! It rang up the original $89.97. My DH was smart and told them that's not the price in the flyer and it should be $39.96. She huffed but changed the price to match the flyer.
mom2monkiesx3 Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I did not find one at my walmart (not on shelf and not shelf tag) but I grabbed a flyer to take around
bpr Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I don't know why they are doing this? It's in their ads online, but yet they don't have it on sale on their website. They also don't have the ads in their stores yet, and they don't have the items priced so you have to take the item up to the register. Again, Weird!!!!Walmart will tell you that they are separate entities. Walmart and Walmart.com prices do not always match and Walmart will not PM Walmart.com. It is weird. Anyways, Walmart was out of these, but my DS was able to PM at Target . He went and got a sunday paper to get the ad and was able to PM. Thanks OP!

Either way, Walmart messed up. It's in their ad, but they don't have them on sale in the store or online. Did they mess up on the flyer? What's their deal? Anyway, glad someone of you are/were able to get in on this.

Either way, Walmart messed up. It's in their ad, but they don't have them on sale in the store or online. Did they mess up on the flyer? What's their deal? Anyway, glad someone of you are/were able to get in on this.They messed up the flyer. It is an error, and you are not going to see it online. There were apparently several errors in this weeks ad. Something about the new Skylanders game, too, though it might have been a separate flyer. I didn't notice it in the ad I grabbed. Walmart was out of stock, which I knew from checking online, but they had ads. When I took the ad to TRU, they would not honor it because they said it was an error. They had a corporate email about it that told managers not to honor it. I know the manager and he pulled it up and showed me. I guess they had an all call go out to stores on the Skylanders thing the day before. So, I took the ad to Target. PMed no problem at all. The cashier balked a bit at the amount, and got a manager to do the override. Can't blame her, I wouldn't want to be in trouble for it either. Thanks again, OP!
ClearanceQueen Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 I got one at 3 am. Thank you so much. Only one store had one left in the valley
revecca Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 It's in their ad (valid Oct 21-27). I'm seeing people ask for rain checks, and price matching.
lovetoshopCA Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 It's in their ad (valid Oct 21-27). I'm seeing people ask for rain checks, and price matching.Target will price match, but Walmart won't give rain checks unless that is just local. Our stores won't give you one for anything.
myervin2001 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 My co worker price matched the Lego set at Target yesterday, she got 2 sets.
deelite Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I was able to buy online and pick up in my local Walmart today.
JollyGG Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 My son really wants Skylanders this Christmas. What was the error on that one?
revecca Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 My son really wants Skylanders this Christmas. What was the error on that one?what exactly, the game, the cards, or just anything skylanders? because i've seen some stuff on sale.
JollyGG Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 what exactly, the game, the cards, or just anything skylanders? because i've seen some stuff on sale.He's getting the game and a couple of the figures for Christmas. I looked up the add but didn't see any Skylanders anything for my area. I just started shopping so am going to keep an eye out for deals.
revecca Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 Just found out that Walmart has on sale/clearance lots of Lego sets. They are not showing online or in their ads. This is from my friend in Philly. She was getting a raincheck for the mining set, and the lady who was helping told her. Not sure if it's just in her area or everywhere (not sure how Walmart works, lol).
revecca Posted October 25, 2012 Author Posted October 25, 2012 don't buy them all, lol! I need 5 more sets.
lovetoshopCA Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 My son really wants Skylanders this Christmas. What was the error on that one?not really sure. the folks at TRU mentioned it to me, I didn't see it.

Not sure if it's just in her area or everywhere (not sure how Walmart works, lol).Sale-wise, I didn't see anything to speak of when I stopped by. They had a couple others in the same ad, but the price was not a sale, just advertising them. Clearance-wise, it is done on a store by store basis, so what is on clearance there may not be where you are, or even another store in the same town. It is very, very inconsistent and annoying. You can get some great deals sometimes, but you just have to get lucky.
JollyGG Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 My friend says thank you. All the stores that price match in town are out. But she got a rain check from Walmart. They said it was a misprint, but they are honoring it. They claim to be unsure if they will get any in by Christmas. But I told her I doubted that very much. So she has a rain check and just hopes she can use it.
