Changing this to a FAQs for those that need some help getting these deals.
When I order online it shows X price for in store, but changes to Y price at checkout, what gives?
You can only do in store pickup for the clearance price if the item is available for pick up that day. If it isn't the price will be the online price instead. Sometimes the item will be shipped to that store if it is no longer at that store. It may adjust to the clearance price at pickup but it could also charge you full price for it.
Can I buy the item at one store and return / rebuy at another?
Yes but it is up to the stores discretion to allow you to get it for that stores in store price. If it is an online order, they are supposed to return it to the warehouse it came from so you will not be able to buy it back. It's YMMV on employees following this rule though.
Can I price match a Walmart clearance item at X store?
No. No store, including Walmart, PMs clearance prices. YMMV on getting PMs for these items but it is against every stores policy to do so.
I want to price match this clearance item at another Walmart, will they allow me to?
No WM (or any retailer) PMs the prices of other local stores.
BS said X of an item is in stock, but the employee said it isn't at my store, why did they lie to me?
They didn't. Sometimes items are misplaced, stolen, or the count is off. Employees are not all over the massive stock room nor do they know where every item is. Don't harass an employee or come on here saying they are keeping it for themselves. Sometimes, an item truly isn't in the store.
Why is BS always wrong?
BS is not wrong. Their information is directly from WM systems. Just like all stores, inventory and prices may be wrong for a certain store. Do not rely only on BS.
How do I find clearance items?
Go to the store and scan items, check SD, check this thread. Actually look for something you want.
Where in the store are clearance games located?
Clearance items in general can be on shelves, in dedicated clearance sections or in the stock room. For games specifically, they will be in the videogame glass cases, videogame value game isle or dedicated clearance section. It's random and depends on that stores layout / management.
What is the SKU or item number of this item?
Look it up yourself. There is a search function on this site, on BS site and you can Google the item almost 100% of the time. No one needs to spoon feed you this information and we shouldn't have 20 people asking for the same information that was already posted.
Acronyms to know.
WM = Walmart
PM = Price Match
TRU = Toysrus
BS = Brickseek
SD = Slickdeals

ing price match policy. "We don't price match Amazon." YES. YOU DO. "We don't price match if it's not in a physical newspaper ad." YES. YOU DO. They would hound and be shitty towards people just asking them to honor their own policies.
. A quick peek at Target's website shows them back up to full MSRP again, though Bulletstorm was clearanced soon enough ago that you might be able to get it to ring up for six bucks. Just in case you want to try: 
S4: Bound By Flame, and since you can’t take alcohol to the self checkout lines in California, I started racking my brain to think how I could get out without an employee hassling me over the price. Finally, the light bulb went off: I grabbed a copy of Machete from the value DVD section, went back to the self checkout, scanned that first, had the employee helping that area override the age question while simultaneously unlocking my game from its plastic coffin, then waited for them to leave, scanned BBF to the beautiful price of 3¢, paid and walked out hassle free. I also verified that CDs with parental advisory stickers also make the self scanners pop up with the employee code warning, so that’s another item you can try to scan before any $0.03 games.
