Friends Gift Pack $5.50 @ Wal Mart

I was at Wal Mart today an they had about 8 of the Friends gift sets with DVD, CD, Coffee, Coasters and Tray for only $5.50.

I figured someone here might appreciate this, probably wouldn't be a bad gift for someone, eh?

I know there's an under $6.00 thread but I think this is a low stocked item justifying a seperate thread. No offense to those keeping that thread up to dat, you're doing a heck of a job.

I just got back from the Tweksbury, MA wal-mart and there was one of these on the top of the 5.50 bin. It was slightly beat up, but after looking closely at it I decided that even if it were in perfect condition, $5.50 was still too much.

I found this in So. California a few days ago, but forgot to post it... Ya, it was originally a Target exclusive. Well, glad I never wasted my money on it then! $5.50 is reasonable, full price was not...

I actually did find one.....kind of lame but worth it for Friends fans for 5.50.

As a side note there was a black sticker on the front covering a Target sticker that read "Target Exclusive 29.99". I wonder how these ended up in the Walmart Bargain Bin.

Thanks for the info on this

My walmart (Lynchburg, Va) only had two of these in the bargni bin.

I got myself one just because of the deal and one as a gift.

Thanks for the heads-up!

I bought one yesterday at my Wal Mart in Binghamton (they had about 5). When I took it home I noticed there was a black sticker covering something, and when I pealed it off there was another sticker that said "Target exclusive 29.99"

The one in Joliet, IL had maybe 50 of these. I may go get one for my sister as a Christmas gift.

Hopefully the Target sticker will still be on there and I can just leave it on and tell her I spend the minimum $25 on her.

Just kidding...
