I was able to procure a copy of the Wal-Mart Black Friday circular, but won’t be posting it here due to Wal-Mart’s legal threats regarding the matter. However I will share with you the deals I will be trying to grab at my local Wal-Mart this upcoming Friday. The sale is from 5am -11am, however I know that at my Wal-Mart they continue selling the non-regular, one-time offer merchandise in the blitz sale until it is sold out.

That is the extent of the items that I may be interested in, primarily electronics and movies. There will also be secret sale items being announced periodically throughout the weekend by e-mail or text messages.
When you pick up the Black Friday sales flyer, there is a coupon on the back for those who use their Wal-Mart credit card. It offers no interest for 18 months on purchases of $250 or more. Your purchase would be limited to whatever Wal-Mart determines your credit limit to be, so if you decide to sign up they will just need your drivers license and a current credit card. Give them the card with the highest limit to better your chances for a high limit Wal-Mart card as well.
Happy Shopping!

Hey, has anyone else realized that many of the “sale items” listed in the Wal-Mart Black Friday ad are already listed at that price on their web-site? And, the web-site says “IN MANY STORES.” Does that mean I can already buy them at that price? If so, the flyer is misleading, because it makes one think you are getting a bargain by getting up that early. I was just like you, and I had a laundry list of stuff I wanted to get, such as the $20.00 Shop-Vac, the HP Deskjet F2110 All-in-One Printer for $34.00 and the Lexmark X3430 All-in-One Printer for $25.00. But, if you go to Walmart.com and look them up they already show at these prices. In fact, the only two items I found on the flyer that I wanted, and were different, were 40 Year-old Virgin DVD and the Black & Decker Programmable Coffee Maker. What’s up with that?
Brian,
I noticed bfads.net had mentioned that there were 30 items from the
circular that were the same price online. I really don’t understand why Wal-Mart wouldn’t mention that to try to ease congestion in their stores by shifting more sales online.
Having been a former Wal-Mart manager I can tell you their ways have never made sense.
So, I have to ask…. are you going to the store early in the morning to get the dvd and coffee maker?
my thing is nothing on thier ad is worth getting up for there really is even a regular tv that they have had the lst couple of years. I mean really get up early or stay in bed and get it for $10 more the next time u go !!!!! I would rather get my sleep and why did they make a big deal about the release for nothing really……
I know what you mean about the regular TV’s they usually have. I remember during the 2005 blitz the Wal-Mart I worked at had one full semi trailer full of regular tv’s. I picked one up on my way out for under $100 and it had a built in dvd player and a flat screen.
But all the rage now is the LCD and Plasma flat panel televisions. Honestly, I’ll wait until they come down in price some more.
I cannot wait until black friday this year, every year I’m one of those crazy people standing out in the cold at 3am. This year I think Im going to Walmart because I’m already finding great Wal-Mart discounts online!
