daveymark Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 A little birdie told me :) I have no way to prove this now, but Tuesday I will get the flyer and scan it in Also, some stores have less than 12 and may not be able to get the remaining in time
bwc123 Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 They were handing out flyers at my local Wal-Mart, and the price was indeed $378.
klmorgan72 Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 what state is your walmart in that is gonna have them for $378?
ferretmommy1 Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 the one in Oregon, Ohio has them in their ad for $378
klmorgan72 Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 i am in SE MIchigan and here the ad is $398 so guess you get the better deal. I am not sure yet if I am wanting to get one or not. I just bought a dell a few months back. But maybe for my kids.
Brad Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Here is the flyer: http://www.blackfridaysaleads.com/images/scans/walmart_flyer.jpg http://www.blackfridaysaleads.com/images/scans/walmart_flyer2.jpg
daz Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 everything in that scan is cheaper than the "leaked" ad. It was all a setup, you watch, the day the ads come out (the REAL ads on thanksgiving day or the day before) the prices will be the same countrywide, and even cheaper than the first 2 scans we saw. I've been checking a lot and the above scan looks like the real prices to me. the tv is 10 cheaper, the flatpanel tv is ($24) cheaper than the original ad.... Wal-Mart knew what they were doing, period. We talked about it for the last week and a half, they got it on the national news, now everybody in the country wants to see the WM ad!
saturnboy01 Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Kudos to WM There PR department must be PROUD as hell.
laffnatu Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I was happy with the prices before..but if it's cheaper, I will be happier.
bwc123 Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 The flyer is real. For the record, there are some sale items on the back of the flyer (toys). I send in the scan shortly...
KBsDarling Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 cant wait to see the toy side....hope it doesnt mess up all my plans LOL
higbee Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I just went to my walmart in N.C. and they handed me the same flyer with the laptops $378. When I was leaving an employee was telling the woman at the door to stop handing the flyers out because the price was wrong.
Brad Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 but what about the ad tha comes in thursday's paper? will it have these lower prices or the original ones? and what if people don't know about these lower prices? doesn't matter to me their initial ad that we had first got us all those news stories such as CNN, so it worked out just fine for GD :)
laffnatu Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 WOOHOO!!! The Ultimate Lightsaber for $21!!!!!!!!!! Son wants that more than the $8..but I wouldn't pay $40. And the Wall Climber too! I'm sooooo excited! I can't wait til Friday. :banana01: :banana01: :banana01:

When I was leaving an employee was telling the woman at the door to stop handing the flyers out because the price was wrong.Ut oh.. maybe I am getting excited to nothing? Where in NC? That's where I am.
higbee Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Seems to me, if I have the ad they gave me, they will have to honor the price.
laffnatu Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Asheboro here. I didn't see any ads when I was at WM today though. Yea, it does seem like they would have to honor it. Edit: I just called my WM and she said they haven't started giving out ads yet.
KBsDarling Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 No they will just post a "ad correction" by the product at the service desk and on the door
fairydustcrissy Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Honestly, i dont see them trying to explain to 500 people who have been waiting out in the cold for HOURS that they cannot have the price on thier ad. I think if it is indeed a mistake, they will honor it anyways. One more reason I am glad I dont shop at WM!
KBsDarling Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 i'm so horrid but in my case i hope everyone in front of me is after those laptops and all stand around screaming and rioting while I can slip past and get those CP babies LOL
venerdinero Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Well the plot thickens. I did say that I thought they were trying to create the biggest buzz about WM, that certainly appears to be true, no matter what the real prices will be. I also noted that WM had announced a business decision to go back to doorbusters after downplaying it last year. That also appears to be true!
missyjane Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 i'm so horrid but in my case i hope everyone in front of me is after those laptops and all stand around screaming and rioting while I can slip past and get those CP babies LOLlol

When I was leaving an employee was telling the woman at the door to stop handing the flyers out because the price was wrong.That is luck. Someone who post on GD bf fourms being there at the same time, that conversation took place.
amdskip Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Just got home from work, the ads that the store was shipped have the price at $488. Sounds like we got 10-15 laptops for the store which is a small supercenter. Larger stores may get more in. Does anyone have a upc or item # for this laptop?
disneyaholicraquel Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 i am in SE MIchigan and here the ad is $398 so guess you get the better deal.I am not sure yet if I am wanting to get one or not. I just bought a dell a few months back. But maybe for my kids.Hey where did you get your ad? I live in Grand Blanc, MI and I have not gotten one yet:cry2:
rajat2k2k Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 I just called my local walmart....they said that it will be coming out in sunday's paper....hope everything will be fine tomorrow morning :)
