Brad Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Last year they released it the night of 11/9 (Tuesday). With BF being 2 days earlier this year, could they release it the night of the 7th which is this Tuesday night? Any predictions/rumors?
abentley Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 We can hope! I predict not though. I am still hopeful for any news on " super Saturday" and they seem to be dragging everything out!
arci122 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 oh, please tell me you already have it ready to go so when they give the green light you can share. :multi:
gatorburg Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I just seen this on walmarts website It is to get early access to their ad. So it will be on Facebook sometime soon. http://www.walmart.com/cp/black-friday/1076614?povid=cat14503-env15844-moduleA110112-lLink_GETCONNECTED

JollyGG Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 I figured that their marketing plan went something like this: 1. Threaten any legitimate site they can into not releasing the ad 2. Ad gets leaked anyway 3. Enough people find leaked ad that they can't keep a lid on it reasonably anymore 4. Finally release it and give legitimate sites the go ahead. Therefore we'll get the ad whenever it's leak is widespread enough.

bigjimslade Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Tuesday is election night. Do you think they will do it on a big night like that? Most of the country will be watching cable news that night.

Most of the country will be watching cable news that night.true, but that also means that on wednesday a lot of people will be online checking news sites and walmart's BF ad gets a lot of news coverage.
Angelseyes28 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Nope, they will wait and release it the day AFTER black friday......hey that's no more far fetched than that ignorant letter they send out every year.
djcfunk Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 could They have made that page more search friendly? They used the phrase Black Friday about 39 times. Obvious search enhancement is annoying. Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
faceofboe Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I also doubt they'll do it on election night. However, it would be a nice distraction from all the political talk so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
starbeck96 Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Maybe they will release it tomorrow Fingers crossed...
jcool785 Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Maybe they will release it tomorrow Fingers crossed...Agree! The Wally ad would be a great start to the week....
arci122 Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Nope, they will wait and release it the day AFTER black friday......hey that's no more far fetched than that ignorant letter they send out every year. Don't laugh, we ALWAYS get the ad on Black Friday or the day after here. Thank you Gottadeal for keeping us informed!

abentley Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 So Brad.....do you have it already? Are you teasing us while you wait for the "green light" from Walmart? I have always wondered when you actually got it last year.

Tuesday is the 6th.Do you mean like midnight Weds. a.m. (the 7th)?Come on Big Ads!!!!!!
stacya Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Wow Brad, you almost totally nailed the date on that one...I think you've done this before...
Brad Posted November 8, 2012 Author Posted November 8, 2012 Wow Brad, you almost totally nailed the date on that one...I think you've done this before... It probably would have been Tuesday night if not for the election. They just delayed it a day. I also learned today that they sent the ad to CNN and other media outlets yesterday afternoon so they could prepare stories to post at midnight.
