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

what area of the US are you in?
That was in Kankakee, IL. There are 2 stores in the area, one I realize now I haven't seen a clearance game lower than $15 there, while the other store is hyper aggressive with clearance. Half the games have been gone for months.

I tried and had no luck. Most of the games posted were there but I had to have an employee scan them for me and they were all ringing up full price. My app had been force updated a while back that ended up breaking the scanner but I noticed there was a new update for the Wal Mart app. Went ahead and updated i could get some toys to show the price but games it wouldn't show a price on them.
 
Where is it posted in the discord?

Went to Walmart yesterday that had a few of these. Asked the guy at electronics for a price scan. He rang them up using his phone and told me they were full price (I didn't see the price). A few hours later I checked and every single copy was gone... I made a rookie mistake.
 
Got a good score at my Walmart after waiting 15 minutes for someone to find the keys to the game cases. Picked up Like A Dragon (Steelbook, PS4), Nioh Collection (PS5), Immortals (PS5) and The Pathless (PS5) for $20 and some change.

Always have them use the store scanner as it shows there store only. If you scan via the Walmart app on phone it will always pull it up from what the online site shows. Either have someone manually scan using the store device or pick the ones you want and scan them at one of the price checkers around the store.

God I hate it when I ask for a price or availability check at Best Buy or Walmart and the guy gets out his phone to use the main website, as if we didn't already do that ourselves.

 
My store was looking for all the clearance games as I walked in, I ended up looking in the bargain bin and found all of the $2 PS4 games and bought them all. The manager was giving me ugly looks the entire time but there wasn't anything they could do since they were all clearanced out and not $0.03.
My thoughts on that are if they did a more competent job then it would be a non-issue.

I see most of the items have been posted by mom groups throughout the day so everyone is out trying to get them at this point. If you don't have them now, you probably have until the end of tomorrow before everything is gone. 

Good luck to those of us that got a few days head start and good luck to those still looking.

Same thing happened to me, they scanned the game on the employee phone app and it gave the online price, I asked them the ring it up at the register and the clearance price rang up. Don’t let them scan with the phone app, confirm at register or if they have the proprietary hand scanner
 
Went to 2 Walmarts. I really wanted to find Immortals and Uncharted. The first one I went to, the young kid working knew about the clearance games and said most if not all are already in the back getting ready to ship out. I asked about Immortals and he says it's in the back. Same with Nioh collection and some other ones I asked about. I asked him if he could them it but he said once it's back there, it's been cleared out of the system. I did find Death stranding, Uncharted Lost legacy and Nioh 2 in the lockup though. He said he will see if the register lets him ring them up. Sure enough, all came up as $6 and okay to sell so I bought them and he was telling me about Xbox games and some PS4 clearance games he bought and resold. They did not have a bin of games. All were in the lockup.

2nd Walmart didn't have nearly as many games as the first. The kid working there told me everything in the lockup is all they have. I asked if there was a clearance bin and he said he didn't know. Brickseek showed that this Walmart didn't have most of the games I was looking for. Although I did find Iron Man and Puyo Puyo for PS4 despite BS showing none in stock. Iron Man showed a $20 clearance sticker and Puyo was $15. They both rang up as $4 each. I did see Immortals for both Switch and Xbox and Switch had a $25 clearance sticker. When I checked brickseek, it showed no stores having either Switch or Xbox version. So strange. The kid working there looked so checked out that I didn't want to bother him to find out some other prices.

Anyway, I got 5 games so I did pretty good. Didn't get one of the ones I really wanted but maybe I can trade someone here. I was going to wait until the Death stranding PS5 director's cut goes down in price but I will research the differences and see if the upgrade to PS5 is free or what is costs etc before I open it. Basically, I will see if it's worth paying more for the PS5 version or just upgrading the one I just bought for $2. Thanks for everyone finding these deals. I completely spaced on seeing if The Fallen was there. I saw multiple copies of Balan underworld but since I didn't know what it was, it didn't register in my brain to buy it. Oh and Walmart had like 3 more copies of Death Stranding and Uncharted LL but I left those for other CAG's in the area hopefully to keep.

Well want back to the store I limped out of before with trusting Brickseek and scored pretty well... Actually got an employee this time that was less grumpy 

Anyone know if Sackboy is ringing up cheap?

This is somewhat off-topic, but it costs $10 to upgrade Death Stranding to the PS5 version. Based on what I've heard is included, there's quite a bit to justify the cost.

Yeah I did some quick research and if I pay $10, I get the directors cut PS5 version. Great deal and that's what I will do. So in total, I would have paid a tad over $12 for Death Stranding Directors cut on PS5. Takes the sting out of not getting Immortals haha.

 
question:

I checked on the internet the walmart store by city location. (not Walmart.com) Once Im in the walmart with the city selected it gives me the option to type in the SKU number to find the item on said store.  Once it does the search,  it shows the retail price and not the clearance price.

if I go to the physical store will I get the clearance price?

thanks in advance.

 
Main St Walmart had uncharted collection for $5, persona 5 strikers for $5, horizon zero dawn complete for $2, immortals fenyx rising for $4.

No DMC5, but holy cow.

Ended up grabbing these, the Nioh collection on ps5 ($7) and Outer Worlds on Xbox One ($5). Less than $30 out of pocket for the bunch.

Keeping Nioh, but the rest are tradeable.
 
2 things:

1) If was an all Wal-Mart clearance, SD and others would have attacked and little would be found. It just popped up today. 

2) Yesterday, I had Wal-Mart worker scan Nioh ps5 with the phone, hand scanner and the register. Only the register was right at 1st.

Really thats awesome, I was just looking at nioh 2 seeing if I should just get it for $13 at gamestop and just buy SP for $10. I'm jealous
 
They're definitely pulling, Walmart I went to today was supposed to have 6 copies of Devil May Cry (checked 11pm last nigbt) showed up at Walmart at 8 this morning everything was gon except for a sole copy of Uncharted Lost Legacy and Madden 21 for PS4 AND XBOX
 
So you guys just go into clearance section of walmart and find these cheap games. All I be seeing is the same opened up stuff or whatever except a ps2 game thats sitting there for months.

At my store they were behind the glass case that you have to find an employee to open for you. Then I had to ask them to scan the games I was interested in.

Oh thought they be in the clearance section. I'll have to look more closely in the game area then cause they just be $20
 
Link dump w/ as many of the most recent clearance finds as I could gather into one post. As always, all credit goes to the original posters.
