babygirl2310 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 My sister said that she does not think that the black friday ad that walmart has out right now is the final one. She said that they're going to come out with another one...(supposedly the real one!) just a few days before black friday to throw the competition. What do you guys think?
tdanette Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I know someone that works at Wal-Mart and they told me they've heard the same thing. The rumor going around that store is that there are going to be some SHOCKING discounts on BF. I hope this is one rumor that comes true!
blackcj Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I guess I am just naive, but do they really do things like that ? Leak a false ad and then have a new one at the last minute? These have to be printed ahead of time, right?

I think there are some things Wal-Mart isn't letting go of until a day or two before thanksgiving. I can't imagine BB and CC having computer deals and WM doesn't? Nah- something's up. Of course that could be my wishful thinking.

left210 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I hope they have a better 37" or 42" LCD deal.
Tracy72 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I just hope we can see before that day...hate to go in and be blinded by all the deals...lol...and not have game plan
sigrist_2000 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 last year they had the two sided flyer that pretty much beat or price matched the competitors items...so maybe the same thing this year...but bigger (or it could be in store thing...but i would think they would advertise the deals to get people in the door)...they are probably using this site to determine what to add...since all the major retailers have been leaked...everyone can compare and figure what final price they will charge.
dmmiller Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Okay, if your right.. and WM is listening.. I want a Laptop for $199, hell, $149. And come Nintendo ds's at rock bottom prices. (cuz i need 2) A digital camera.. You see where I"m going. I'M SOOOO EXCITED!!! I cant wait.

What do you guys think?[/quote I have heard several more rumors about this. After seeing their first ad I wasn't really impressed, but now, they are going to be my first stop. I just know they are going to have a killer deal on computers and I can't wait!!!!
caramel Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I'm starting to believe this is true since their ad sucked so much!
daworths8 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Okay, if your right.. and WM is listening.. I want a Laptop for $199, hell, $149.And come Nintendo ds's at rock bottom prices. (cuz i need 2) A digital camera.. You see where I"m going.I'M SOOOO EXCITED!!! I cant wait. I need 2 DS's too.....hope somebody has em cheap if not Im gonna get the $199 bundles at walmart.
jade#1 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 well toysrus is having a nintendo ds lite with a game spyro ithink and a starter kit for 149.98 its a good price you get a game and starter kit for 20.00

Of course that could be my wishful thinking.Most of the prices on the current ad are the same or more than the regular prices. I noticed that from the beginning. I think that Walmart would be totally crazy to go with the current prices shown in the BF ad.
Caprice64 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Hey WM if your listening I want the gameboy SP extra cheap and a killer deal on the Casio keyboards!!
vonnyb Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 The only reason I believe that there is probably something else up Walmart's sleeve is because I do not think they will let Best Buy or Circuit City out do them on computer and TV deals.
arogge Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 See CNN.com under business section. Walmart is offering more specials on Thanksgiving Day
mcmc Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Please Wal_Mart find a way that the people in Wisconsin can get these deals as good as the rest of the country. Do them as clearance....
monster2369 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Okay, if your right.. and WM is listening.. I want a Laptop for $199, hell, $149.And come Nintendo ds's at rock bottom prices. (cuz i need 2) A digital camera.. You see where I"m going.I'M SOOOO EXCITED!!! I cant wait. I am with you can I pleeeeaaazzzze get a ds lite for rock bottom price b4 I have to lock my 12 yo ds up.

EYGLE Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I was in Walmart last nite searching the toy deptartment for some geo trax. A manager asked if she could help me when I told her what I was looking for, she said that they didn't have any but may have for the after Thanksgiving blitz. Was all I could to to say "well its not in your flyer". But if they are going to put out another who knows.
EYGLE Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Please Wal_Mart find a way that the people in Wisconsin can get these deals as good as the rest of the country. Do them as clearance....Wisconsin has some kind of law about selling below cost correct?
mcmc Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 yes there is a law about selling below cost but they can clearance it lower then cost and take a loss.
daz Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 CNN.com had an article that quoted a WM spokesperson that said the next ad will come out on the 20th, that was about a week ago
mmuffet7 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 I just seen a story on Yahoo, that said walmarts is cutting prices for the Christmas season. It said it was cutbacks that have never been seen in stores before, so who knows what BF will hold. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Cherry Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 I sooo hope they keep adding to their blitz sales I just wish they'd add things like seat covers and such I need to redo my car
bigdogofftheporch Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 last year they had the two sided flyer that pretty much beat or price matched the competitors items...so maybe the same thing this year...but bigger (or it could be in store thing...but i would think they would advertise the deals to get people in the door)...they are probably using this site to determine what to add...since all the major retailers have been leaked...everyone can compare and figure what final price they will charge.I heard tonight that there is a flyer that was printed already when the other ads were printed but those 2 page flyers were shipped back to benton by walmart loss prevention staff they were in boxs inside they were wrapped in thick black bags they are soposialy going to be deliverd to the stores and to be locked in the store safe till wed and not given out till thanksgiving day in the stores at are 24 hours and the other stores when you come into the store on bf i wish here in n.j we had those stores (24). this came from a store detective he said that his boss has to go out there on friday for a last min. meeting and to bring back the flyers for the store SO I'M HOPEING THIS IS TRUE :cheesy: :D
