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

Is there a list anywhere of what games are in the clearance so I can search Walmart locations? The first post does not have a list.
Yes you will have to check through the thread. Should be in the last 10-20 pages or so. You can also try slickdeals.

go to links only mode and back a lot of pages and you'll find their list link dump eventually.

Great timing as I actually finally got the time to go through the thread and add some of the more recent finds to the list here. I myself am not having too much look finding the stuff I want, but if it's working for others that's good enough for me! Happy hunting, CAGs!

 
Picked up Pathless the other day. When he pulled it out, there was a different game behind it. I went back later and asked to check behind the games. Didn't find much (lots of different stuff) but did find one Yakuza for $4. Might be worth it to at least look behind the games in front to see if there's something different behind it.

Man, thank you so much for this!

I struck out looking for Nioh Collection (PS5) at the Jackson, MI store but did manage to grab Yakuza (PS4) and Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 (PS5).

If anyone is interested I would be willing to trade both (Yakuza and Puyo Puyo 2) for Nioh Collection. Thanks!
 
Went to several walmarts and all the games mentioned on here were picked clean. Several gaming shelves were empty. Tried looking around for clearance candy and everything was picked clean this morning as well. Oh well.

 
It seems like candy at Walmart never lasts long. I have gone the day after a holiday multiple times and either the good stuff is gone or there is hardly anything left at all. Target is usually better but now they start at 30% off so the savings isn't too good. I miss when Target would go to 90% off and you could get fun size bags of candy for $0.20.

Depending on the type, it’s often snatched up for FBA. Seasonal Oreos are the same.
 
I picked up an extra copy of Yakuza Like a Dragon PS4, Puyo Tetris 2 PS5 and Indivisible for Switch if anyone has an extra Planet Coaster or MLB The Show they want to trade
 
I was in Walmart last night and they were packing up Halloween stuff and putting out xmas stuff. I'm afraid people are going to be pretty disappointed

Picked up Immortals (PS4) x2 and Nioh Collection x2 today. I left 3 additional copies of Immortals. I took a copy of each, as well as It Takes Two (coming to EA Play), and traded to GameStop for $75. I’ll trade in the rest tomorrow. Ended up getting Guardians of the Galaxy and $25 credit. Thanks for the posts!

Wow... exactly what the last few pages have been whining about

 
Whining about what?
Probably whining about people buying like 10 copies of a game and flipping them. I'll whine about that to taking all the games and leaving none for anyone else which is lame and to come on here bragging about it. They need limits on how many copies of anything you buy these days.

I finally managed to get one game tonight at the second of two stores I went to tonight - MLB The Show 21 :ps4:

If you still have Yakuza Like a Dragon I'm interested in trading with you.

Gonna check one more store tomorrow and see what/if anything I can find. After that I'm gonna call it quits.

Edit: I traded it to galvatron2k1 for Yakuza Like a Dragon (non-steelbook). If I come across a copy or two of MLB The Show 21 JR Steelbook Edition tomorrow I'll get them and trade for Yakuza Like a Dragon Day One Edition and/or another game.

No store is ever going to limit the amount of clearance items you can buy. The whole idea behind clearance sales is that the store wants to get rid of that stuff as soon as possible. Also, what incentives do stores have to tell people that they can't buy an item that is in stock?

Yes I'd definitely be willing to trade

I have Nioh 2 PS4 and Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 PS5 to trade for Immortals and The Pathless you're interested. You can also check my gametz signature for games I have available if you don't want those games.

There's an employee at a store in Tampa who is hilarious with the rules. She says that clearance items are limit 1 per person so everyone can have a fair chance, but when you bring up the fact that none of them are priced, which makes it less fair, the items being priced is "not her job" (which I'm pretty sure it is).

 
El hoardo cleared my store completely clean

I tried to get these games yesterday but electronics closed early due to short staff, they told me to come back at 7am

I get there at 7am, all games were picked clean. Associate told me they came in to work early today and at 6am and there was a guy waiting on her when she clocked in

I saw at least 5 copies of EACH game on clearance available across all consoles. She said it was one person who took everything
 
I completely agree with you…FL is pretty intense. Luckily I’m a little removed from the “big city” now so things aren’t as bad.
Lol you guys think Florida is bad try living in California. The people who usually buy out things are soccer moms who check daily on clearance items.

it is pretty bad everywhere, even if you are in a lower population area, that is where the professional resellers go from store to store buying them out. they drive around in uhauls just to give you an idea of how much they are buying.

 
I've been striking out at Walmarts.  As a collector of steelbooks, at least this is bring the price down on Yakuza and MLB steelbooks on ebay!  Before I go buying on there, if anyone has an extra of either for sale for cheaper than ebay, I'd be grateful.  Thanks!

Edit: MLB 21 has been obtained!  Still looking for the Yakuza Steelbook edition (and the Pathless to a lesser degree)

If you don’t mind me asking, where do you find the clearance games at that store? I have no idea since they redesigned it and it’s the closet one to me.

Sure thing! While they actually had a clearance section, I found those games just in the normal game area, not marked as clearance.

 
I really despise how inconsistent Walmart clearance is in my area. I just went to a two local stores five minutes apart. One had nothing available and then I went to another store a few miles away and they had four games. Brickseek said that none of these games are available in my area, zero results, but I took a chance because I've had luck in the past. The employee struggles to get the four games out of the case for me and they all ring up full price. I apologize for the trouble and leave empty handed.

 
ah the wonderfully inconsistent brickseek now says no results in searched area for all the games so now I cant see if/when the 2 remaining stores that are at full price will drop them

It goes down at times. Take a break for a few hours and then keep on checking.

To the gentleman that just left my local Walmart with 30+ games, I really appreciate you leaving/missing 1 copy of the Yakuza Steelbook! That was the game I was looking for, so you made my day! 👍
 
I managed to make an acquantaince with a person working at Walmart's electronic section here at my local store. I now have someone on the inside who I can work with to ensure i can snag a copy of these deals when they hit!
 
Still in possession of:

  • Yakuza Like a Dragon (PS4 non steelbook)
  • Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 (PS5)

Looking to trade for:

  • Nioh Collection and
  • Devil May Cry 5 SE.

By any change where you inside the store when this happened?

Not to long ago I noticed I can barely do anything on the Gamestop app when connected to the in-store Walmart wifi.
Last weekend and today I noticed brickseek giving me no results (but worked fine when I got home). Today I even searched for non gaming items that were plentiful and right in front of my eyes. No results.

For the hell of it I went out to the parking lot (I was parked a good distance away), turned of my phones Location, disconnected Wifi and all of a sudden brickseek could find results. But it strikes me kind of odd I could go the the Brickseek website but just not get results to show up? But still seemed a little too coincidental. Anyone else care to test?

 
Managed to find a local Walmart where El Hoardo hadn't cleared it out and got everything I was looking for.

Now to play through Yakuza 7 like the JRPG nerd I am.

Anyways, those still looking be sure to check the cabinets, because a lot of stores aren't bothering to print out clearance prices or take them out of the cabinets.  I found 3 games still in their slots and not just strewn about down below.

 
A long, long time ago, I used the free wifi in Tops supermarket. They blocked all other supermarket and e-commerce websites so I could not do price comparison. So, I don't think the wifi blocking is accidental.
