heffer569 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 So usually I go to the Walmart that is a little farther from my house but there is like 3 within a mile from there. This year being that we eat thanksgiving dinner really late like 6 I was thinking I would go to the walmart closer to my house they are giving the wristbands out starting at 4 and have to check out by 8 so I would get the wristband run home spend a little time with the family and get back around 7 ( I only need the 50" for like 288 and the cheap laptop) but the problem with this is that the walmart by me is the only one for at least 10-15 miles but it's a lot more upscale of an area so a lot of those people don't even shop there. Would you go to one closer at home where it's the only 1 around or one a little farther out that the area is inundated with walmarts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sas377 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 My Walmart is not letting people with wristbands leave and if you do, they are removing the wristband. They said they would also be checking people coming in to make sure they didn't have wristbands and if they do, they are removing them as well. Not sure how they are going to do this logistically, but that's what I was told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtsuboy Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Just call 1-800-Walmart. The whole point of the wristbands is to make the shopping experience a little easier for the customer and relieve overcrowding and congestion in the store.

ltb845 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 And just because they will start giving out bands at 4 doesn't mean people will start lining up at 4. I have friends who will be in line much much earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
