teresa92 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 And what are you getting? I was going to get the Thomas train set, but found one I like better at JCP online. So I'm just after the Doodle Monster, I-Dog and the Playdoh table, if the s/h is reasonable. Not enough in my opinion to battle the crowd!
scrappinkelly Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 idog Gameboy Advance I too am wondering about shipping! Good Luck.
aj4545 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I'm thinking I'm going to. I'm only going after clothes and it's 3.94 for the first item and .97 for each article of clothing after that. That sounds pretty reasonable, I think. I'm just worried about about sizes though...
jade#1 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 no i live a couple of blocks from wm and i just rather be there
Seagee Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I'd like to order on line too, since there are a few specific things I want to get and don't really want to go out and hit all the stores in the morning. Do we have to wait until 5am EST for the things to be released on line?
teresa92 Posted November 24, 2006 Author Posted November 24, 2006 ...Do we have to wait until 5am EST for the things to be released on line?That's what they say, but I'll be checking a little sooner just in case.
dtdoda Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I did it all on-line and avoided the zoo. Went back to sleep afterward. Now up having coffee. This is awesome. No cold, no rain, no fights.
KuponKlipper Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 If I could check out .... I would be SOOOO happy ! I finally got the website to pull back up .... but it crashes everytime I proceed to check out.
3cuties4me Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I ordered from walmart.com this year instead of going there. Last year I got hit in the head with a flying dvd player Anyways, I got the Thomas set, 5 pairs of the kid PJ sets, a game set (clue jr/scrabble jr) and the Little People set... and a DVD! I also ordered two more pairs of the PJ sets for my mom to give to my neices! ~ Erin
shopaholic1110 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I fought the online traffic earlier this morning. I thought it was just as frustrating as dealing with the crowds with the site crashing repeatedly. Anyways, I got the GBA Micro and the X-Men III stan lee dvd set.
scrappinkelly Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I was on at 4:45am and was able to order the GB Micro no problems. Glad I have that marked off my list!
smangham Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Ordered online at 10:00-ish last night before going to bed. (I was actually surprised they were letting us!) Got the digital camera and the Lexmark printer. I did the same thing on the Old Navy site. Forget the cold, forget the crowds....THIS is the way to do it. It is now 8:30 a.m., my time, and I'm just waking to reports on the tv of crowds and craziness. I don't feel like I missed a thing!
aj4545 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I tried to order this morning but couldn't because of crashes. Had to suck it up because I needed to leave to get in line at Target. Got everything there, then to BBW, then decided to try a non Supercenter walmart on the side of town where there's no mall, target, BB, CC, etc....we got there at 7:30 and they still had 6 42in plasmas...tons of the other electronics...and a stack of bratz dolls taller than me!! You wouldn't have known it was even black friday by being in there. We have a ton of supercenters here and I think because it was not a SC (and no other shopping around there) no one was there! I got everything I wanted from there + some I wasn't going to even try to get, only because no one was there. It was awesome. I'm definately going to that walmart from now on!
Elsie Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 My sister, Daisimae, called me at 4:15 a.m. to wake me up (she was in a CC line...lol). I was on WalMart.com at 5:05 a.m. and was able to order the $49.87 Portable DVD Player for Dad with no problems. I ordered memory cards at BB and then DVD+Rs at RS (free shipping!!!). This was so painless compared to last year's experience at CC. I'm spoiled!!!!:)
saucywench Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 anybody else still having log in and check out problems at walmart.com? ive been trying since abt 6:30 am and it still is lagging bad on every page, and i can get to the cart ive made(sometimes) ,try to check out and i get a internet explorer window saying it cant display page. this is so aggravating and im unable to go to a store in person as my daughter is really sick.
sjjsakr Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I'm still having problems, I am sooooo aggravated. Wish it wasn't so hard to order something online.
mps132 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I tried for an hour at 5am to order on line and I gave up. I tried again at 9am and I was able to get one of the early bird items on line BUT it took a lot of patience. I prepared and fed my child breakfast and was done before I could finally check out (it took 1/2 hr to get one item and check out).... but I was successful. Keep trying!
llist Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I'm still having trouble and its driving me crazy...
KuponKlipper Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I am working on about 7 hours straight now .... refreshing the page.Once I got as far as entering my cc #, then BAM !!!!THIS STINKS !!!I go to Walmart.com and click on my shopping cart and get this message: We did not recognize the address you typed in. Please check the spelling and try again. I have checked out at Staples, Office Depot, Koh'ls and JC Penney with NO trouble at all.
bamaprincess Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I am having trouble too. I was trying to order the kids Christmas Pj set. But when I get to the checkout it just stops. I called the 800 number and it says "we are experiencing technical difficulties...." Now it is almost 11. Will I still be able to get the price after 11 since it is their fault that the website is not working?????
Brad Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 a lot of the items just came back in stock including the plasma, desktop and portable dvd player
dazedharley Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I cannot check out! I even called and got a recording that said they r having technical difficulties.
LoveDeals26 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 My sister, Daisimae, called me at 4:15 a.m. to wake me up (she was in a CC line...lol). I was on WalMart.com at 5:05 a.m. and was able to order the $49.87 Portable DVD Player for Dad with no problems. I ordered memory cards at BB and then DVD+Rs at RS (free shipping!!!). This was so painless compared to last year's experience at CC. I'm spoiled!!!!:)The site was updated with the Black Friday deals (at least the ones I wanted) at about 4:11 EST. I was done ordering at about 4:15. I'm glad I didn't wait until 5am because I didn't want to get screwed because the site was too busy. Sorry to hear some of you were having so much trouble.
llist Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Great... I've been trying to check out for 3 hours now and just got a message that the website is now down for maintenance... you would really think they would have planned for this. I'm going to start checking other sites and take my business somewhere else!!
tmkuroda Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I bought: Portable dvd player Samsung camera a few dvd's sd card memory stick micro gameboy Then went out to the mall to hit all the stores:) Tina

Please check the spelling and try again. I have checked out at Staples, Office Depot, Koh'ls and JC Penney with NO trouble at all.I hope they honor the sale prices for the rest of the day because it's not fair to the buyers who have been attempting to checkout all morning. I also had a similar problem at Wal-mart.com only in my case, the website stated it didn't recognize my password. I was finally able to get through checkout after many attempts but see now that it's once again down for "scheduled maintenance". Even a call to customer service was useless as the agent told me that they were unable to pull up any order info. Seems I got lucky. I hope you all are able to get your shopping done when they get the site back up. Good luck!
Spotted1 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I got the Vsmile and a DVD online at 4:30 this morning. It was a little slow during the checkout, but not bad. Then around 10:30 I saw the little people sets and went to order one and haven't been able to get it through the checkout. I can't even get it to log in without crashing.
bamaprincess Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I just got back on Walmart.com and checked out just fine. Finally! I already had the stuff in my cart, but it looks like the 5-11 prices are still good anyway, except that a lot of stuff is out of stock.
mbramble Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I would recommend that everyone who had problems with the Wal-Mart web site go to their Help page and send them a note about how much trouble you had... At the top of any page click HELP. At the bottom of the Help page there are 3 columns of links. One is About Walmart.com. Click on the About Walmart.com link and then on the Contact Us: We Site Customer Service link. Finally there is an E-mail link that takes you to a form you can fill out regarding your complaint. I would have just posted a link but this is my first entry and I am not allowed to .
aj4545 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I called them earlier for something, and the CS lady told me that because of the technical difficulites, the 5-11 thing went right out the window!
