arci122 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 I was shopping in the world's smallest walmart near my town on Saturday. I was talking to the lady at check out about how happy I was they were putting Christmas trees out, that meant it was getting closer to BF. She said yes, and we are open on TG this year. I smiled and said that was great, she didn't think so, she was already told she has to work!! If this small town one is open, I am sure all the big ones will.:cheesy:

racerfan Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 I have never had any luck with mine being open. When I lived in upstate NY the 3 walmart (all super) were all closed on Thanksgiving. Moved to PA and the same thing.
Illinoismom Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 mine is 24 hour only closed Christmas day
jdrd90 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 mine is 24 hour only closed Christmas day Same here. I ad matched several things I wanted from kmart at walmart last year on Thanksgiving Day.

KrystalMae1231 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Ours are closed during the day but open back up at night. So I get to camp out in front of the stuff I want from like 5pm on. If I wanted to anyway. :)
amez74 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 we've just got the 24 hour ones around here so they are always open on Thanksgiving day. However they've not had any deals.
JeffPerk Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 The Walmart SC here in Shrewsbury, PA is 24x7, they only close 36 hours a year, 6pm Christmas Eve til 6 am December 26th.
imginah Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 If they want to keep up with other retailers, they should bring back layaways!!!!
Kandy Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Mines always been closed. but the supercenter in the town over (well they have two) one is open and one is closed
Scanner420 Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I'll check with mine, but they've been closed since we moved to S. Jersey. They DID however...open a brand new SuperWM about a week ago......they may break the tradition, especially with the economy tanking.
dessenma Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Our Wal Mart was open. I did not go on Thanksgiving, (spent the day with family). However,I was inside the warm store at 3:00 a.m. in order to get what I wanted. Home and on the road for a weekend trip to Kenosha WI by 6:00 a.m.!
cassgurlie04 Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) Yes, call and check, i know the one here in my town will be open as per i have family and friends working there and they told me, however they also told me that its a pilot thing this year and not every walmart store will be open untill they see how it goes this year. Some stores have been open in the past, but none in my area. If you try to call your local store and they wont answer you if they are giong to be open my sister said all stores suppose to post a holiday schedule on the front doors sometime at the end of the month and it will tell you if your store will be open on thanksgiving or not.

moonryder125 Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 The WM in my town has been open on TG for the past 4 or 5 years.
austin944 Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 hmmm.. if it was open on that day.. why not just put what you want in your cart and wait inside the store!! LOL! :]
chrisjuvers Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 hmmm.. if it was open on that day.. why not just put what you want in your cart and wait inside the store!! LOL! :]I cracked up on that comment. Everything on BF is wrapped in pallets that they will not open until the minute of the sale. Oh, good long laugh on that one!
Hummingbird Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 If they want to keep up with other retailers, they should bring back layaways!!!! I agree with this!!!
elena_398 Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Mine closes then reopens at 9pm I believe (its a 24 hour one)
bugsette Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 I was at one the other day it's not a supercenter either and it will be opend on Turkey Day
elena_398 Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Will have to check. Maybe new policies on Turkey day
bugsette Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 they just found aout this week that they were going to be open
emilygracesmom Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Our Walmart supercenter is open on Thanksgiving Day every year. The only day it's closed is Christmas Day.
mrsjolly729 Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 all of them here have always been closed. the ones that are open 7-11 close at 10 the night b4 and reopen at what ever time on BF the 24 hr ones have closed anywhere from 10 to 2 am night b4/turkey day am. and reopen on BF. i'll have to check at mine this year

Oh, good long laugh on that one!while thats true i always go the night b4 turkey day and walk around finding out what pallets are where and whats on them. the pallets come out of the seasonal doors , where they keep the plants here, in regular clear wrap pulled to location adn wrapped in black there so if you hang out in that section you can see whats on them and where they are heading. it makes my trip in the am much much faster. getting a friend or 2 to go with to help follow people makes it even easier. it's fun too. here once they are wrapped in black they are gaurded till closeing time by 4 people one on each corner. its fun watching them stand there . each one doing something different. reading,playing hand held game,trying to sleep standing up,playing on thier phones. last year they gave them chairs and something to drink. they were replaced for lunch and potty breaks. they are very strict on it which makes it really funny to watch . you'd think the stuff was gold .

With people like us standing in line or roaming around the store for hours waiting to get to it. They must think WE think it is gold.
