you could have saved a lot of space by just writing all xbox 1/ps4 games $49 (except swap force)

I don't get why people are so excited for this deal, bestbuy has better prices with gamers club. People are acting like walmart won black friday by doing this but they didn't copy any of the good deals.

You're right, I'll go ahead and delete the post.

 
Does Walmart still PM on Black Friday? I know they did last year with Target's 50% MS Points cards. Wondering if I can PM some of the GS deals if GS sells out before I have a chance to get there.

 
Hey,  just figured I would let you guys know, the Skylanders Swap Force Starter kit is ringing up at $37 in store now (as of 4pm)...  at least the PS3 one is, it's the only one they had left so I grabbed it.

Good luck!

Must continue to resist Skylanders! I played the demo at the XB1 tour and actually that it was a cute game. Might be worth picking up to play with my niece and nephew.
 
all the games and skylanders stuff from pre black friday were active since 2pm. (wink,wink) and fyi walmart will price match any bf ad as long as its the same item on thanksgiving and BF only.
 
They should, as long as you can pull it up on the site and it reflects that price. My Target is all anal about stuff like that. They won't PM from a print out nor the store ad. They look it up on the ipad and if it doesn't match they won't PM. Even if it is the actual store ad. I stop shopping there.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I just went and picked up Swap Force (3DS) & Infinity (Wii U). Both rang up for $37 with no problems.

I also helped out some guy who was there looking at Infinity. I guess his son wants it for Christmas but he saw the price and said "wow that is really expensive". I told him it was going on sale tomorrow but ringing up right now for the sale price. He was very greatful and called his wife to tell her to come pick one up. Made me feel good to help out and know that his son will be getting it as a gift. :D

Might have to make a quick trip and hopefully it rings up for $37 at my Walmart. But I dread heading into Walmart, that is why I was hoping for a quick pm at Target.

Yes, thanks for the heads up. Saved me another trip tomorrow.
I was already out now, so I grabbed a Skylanders for me son, and another for the cousins.
 
Just grabbed the only PS4 and 3DS copy at the closest store. Only Skylanders chips they had were the Fright Rider ones

Edit- I mean Rattle Shake with the snow flakes.

Thank you! Had to grab a WiiU version as they were out of the Wii and they accepted the $10 off coupon. I'll exchange it later.

Now there one less item on my list for BF. =)

 
I can confirm this....and they are not giving any trouble on the coupon. Got two 3DS starters for my boys who will be getting a 2DS for Christmas.

Anyone in Wisconsin verify that these prices do in fact not take place here?

Just got back from Walmart in Beaver Dam; the 360 version of Disney Infinity is still normal price.

I'm hoping they will refund me the difference tomorrow when i walk in with the receipt for it. If they dont, ill just flat out return it. Its not worth $80 to me, but id pay $40 for it.

 
Just grabbed Skylanders Swap-Force and Infinity for Wii U at my local store. They took the $10 off chip coupon with no problems, excellent start to my Christmas shopping!

 
Picked up the 50-inch LG in Huntington Beach, CA. Saves me a trip waking up early/stalking amazon lightning deals and my bro is super happy :D
 
Sunbound....you can thank our wonderful minimum markup law for that. Hopefully online price changes, that way a PM would be possible at least.

Wisconsin has a minimum markup law which prohibits brick and mortar retailers from selling below cost on general merchandise. Wal Mart hides behind this by not honoring their national sales ad. You can price match other retailers ads but not their own national ads. This law was intended for gas prices but they slipped in the general merchandise constraint.

I attempted to buy Iron Man 3 based upon their nationally advertised price but they quoted me this law. I live on the MN-WI border and they said I should go to the nearest MN Wal Mart for national prices.

Didn't know that, that really sucks, especially for someone like me who is not close to the border of another state :/

 
Damn, wish I had checked this before Walmart here closed tonight.  Woulda gone in and tried to get Infinity.  Ah well, will see if I can go tomorrow to get it or price match at Target.

 
does anybody know if the surface 32gb will be discounted? do i wait for it online on walmarts website or do i have to go instore? i'm a little lost haha.

 
Awesome thanks for the heads up. Myself and several friends were able to go in and pick up Disney Infinity & Skylanders with no problems (Used coupons on Skylanders) One less item on the list.

Just got back from Walmart.  Got Skylanders, and Ghost for the xbox1.  There were about three dozen people in line for the console.  For some reason, Need for Speed wouldnt ring up, so they wouldn't sell it to me.

o_O I haven't seen a Walmart that actually closes in ages... even the middle-of-nowhere town I grew up in has a 24/7 Supercenter now.
