megnsamsgrace Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 There are several WM around me, I wont need anything else, but the GBA so I am going to go to a quiet WM... even quiet on BF. I want to put 3 GBA SP on layaway now (have 4 kids but I already stupidly bought an SP off ebay so youngest will get that one <a used Spongebob one>) I already called and LAYAWAY will be open during BF. If I have to pay full price then bring back up to get a PM I will. But, what are the odds that they will still have these out now, even though Walmart is doing the micros on BF.
elena_398 Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 I may price match a GBA system for my daughter on BF. I don't want to deal with Circuit City. My Walmart has the pink ones too. I hope they will have it on BF though. Still haven't decided
megnsamsgrace Posted November 11, 2006 Author Posted November 11, 2006 All I want for BF is the Gameboy SP's for my kids... and hubby! I asked all 5 store managers (I asked for a store manager but it could have been the MOD). All 5 said I can place items on layaway until the 19th and layaway WILL be open on BF... I can price match ANYTHING that I have right at layaway as long as I have the ads. Now, I am in CT and I called 2 CT WM (1 is a supercenter) and 2 MA ones as we are on the MA/CT line... Just in case this helps anyone else out... Steph mom to Sam 9, Megan 8, Grace 5 and Jr 3
Gporter34 Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 True, you can pm items that are on sale, but the items on the "blitz" at WalMart for BF are usually in special packaging or a different size. If it is the same exact item in the same packaging, they will pm. But it is rare to find the toys or electronics that will be on the blitz ahead of time. Hope this helps.
amdskip Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 Pretty much every item will have a unique UPC # as Gporter has stated. Walmart is not technically supposed to PM an item even if they are the exact same with different UPC's.

Walmart is not technically supposed to PM an item even if they are the exact same with different UPC's. That's what I thought. I have never been able to find mosst of the things I am looking for on BF ahead of time at WalMart and pm them. I have noticed that there is almost always some diffrence which keeps it from being pm'd.
megnsamsgrace Posted November 11, 2006 Author Posted November 11, 2006 Sorry, I should have explained... everything that I put on layaway was from a different store, no BF items from WM I need. Sorry, I forgot... yes, there was one, the Pink Panther movie.
mikesapimp Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 i would call back and talk to the manager again because you will not be able to put anything in layaway on bf.
megnsamsgrace Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 No, everything is already on layaway, did it today and will pick up on BF, they told me I can do the PM when I pick my layaway up
megnsamsgrace Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 Okay, my total layaway was $568, when I pick up on BF, I will price match $218 off that. But with that toys r us coupon for 50% off GBA games, I might just take 2 of those off if the prices are better now for those. And I am going to take the Cabbage Patch kid off because Kohls will have them for 50% off but I know you cant PM a % off. I went just now and made my list of the stores that I need their flyer (CC, BB and TRU). So hopefully, come BF, I will do pretty good
