Amazon is currently matching with a one to two month wait. So not faster at Amazon.

lwhy?

I ordered it on Amazon. I'm not in any hurry and I get a $1 credit for chosing slower shipping.

I’ve been successful in the past with the “regular” shelf copy with no BF sticker also. This is great early on or later if the cardboard bin is out but the shelf is fully stocked

Sometimes this can even net you a little more, as little as a slip cover or as much as the DVD or digital copy that isn’t in the cheaper stickered version.

It probably depends on how they're entered into the system; some might not have a different UPC code on the back, so they'll scan at the same price whether or not they're from the shippers. The last few years the Walmart I've been to has had a sign up that specifically said they would only honor the Black Friday prices on the DVDs/Blu-rays/4Ks that had the colored PROMO stickers on them.

I haven't tried to get an "off-the-sheld" disc in a while. I tried once six or seven years ago and it rang up at the regular price.

I'd say it's a very YMMV thing; you might get lucky on some discs, but I wouldn't count on it.

I just did it again this year. I went before 6pm and took them all off the shelf of the regular area and they scanned the sale price. It doesn't matter if the promo sticker is on it. I don't think it is YMMV at all. I've seen plenty of people say they've done this and there is no reason why it shouldn't work either.

Part of the YMMV is that some stores stripped their movie department of most/all BF items a week before (my 2 home stores did this, my in-laws closest store didn't) or blocked physcial access to the Movie Section
Some stores won't let some of the cashiers do a checkout of 'too low' priced items and even some self checkout people are on the lookout for such behaviour
I found several items that were supposed to part of the BF sale that were scanning at regular price (3 of the 8 items I scanned)

PhantomStranger

It seems that each Walmart dictates how they run Black Friday. I also discovered this year that not every Walmart receives the same amount of Black Friday items.

Just got back from walmart "raiding" there steelbook collection, Got all three John wick movies and Pupl fiction and Taken collection all for 50$! Either someone priced wrong or there sysrem is messed up

I recent went to walmart to check what they had left of bf movies any and guess they reboxed and save or just sent back any by chance. i scored minions br ,dvd, digital for $5 from bin. but not sure if that now reg price for br since they got bin so full and maxed out in ways or it just sale price for holidays. cause if they want stuff to sale they need put the price on their sign thing besides just slogans wheatever it might be at time. they even have bins of dvds in back maxed or almost max out space cause many or some have gone to streaming for movies now. we know walmart wanna keep banking but might wanna try make dvds cheaper cause they are now competeing with thrift stores lol for dvds used or not and even dollar tree lol. i had to actually use the store scanner to get an idea of cost and scnned twice to make sure i saw it right lol. so 5 bucks for br combo to me is not bad and both got the same extras so u not gotta get a new player just to check out extras later lol. now if not wanna fight for space at thrift cause of where they had media stored and sometimes those around seem to have some idea what they want but sometime not lol. may have to hit up walmart more for br now and really see of movies i really want have a combo by chance and after get a get limit scan all to make sure they are all same price lol. cause that is like 5 dollar tree movies by chance or 2 thrift store dvd lol. so many options lol.

I wrote an epic poem about Walmart. It goes something like this ...

I heart Walmart
Yes I do
I heart Walmart
How 'bout you?

If you say no.
It'll break my heart
So please say yes
and we'll fill up our cart ... at Walmart!

Have not been to wm for awhile, so i wonder what new they have added to the bins. just gotta wait till check dollar tree for new sale on media then can check walmart lol. cause what i may spend at walmart can stretch it easier at dollar tree and can get more movies for the money.

PhantomStranger

Most stores I've visited are down to one bin filled with DVDs and BDs together. The DVDs actually might be the better value since they now often include a bonus digital copy of a different movie.

cabler30

My store i go to most, have a dvd bins for 3.74 dvd and otehr 5 bucks and then last went blu rays was 5 by chance. some reason last saw they like combined the 2 dvd bins for some reason. i in area where media is priced different depends where u go. so after go dollar tree friday if none new i want or get none for any reason, then can check walmart after.

Does anyone know if Walmart is accepting returns at the moment?

I did a Ship To Store for a 4K BD, which I picked up today. It looks like a car ran it over after a dog chewed on it.

clappj

I don't believe Walmart (unlike Target and other stores) has made any changes to their return policy.
Looks like you can save yourself a trip to the store (assuming you have access to a printer) by using their free return by mail option.

Why So Blu?

The LOTR EE BD's were onsale for $5.99, but it's obviously out of stock now.

cabler30

I can only guess unless got staff to wipe down stuff cause virus, they not take any returns . not sure if all stores same way but some wont take returns right now.

Batman Complete Series (Repackage/Blu-ray) - $34.96
Free shipping is $35 at Walmart.
This is the slim set in Elite cases, not the Digipack set. I just ordered at Target to get the extra Redcard savings and did a online price match that was very fast and simple at Target.
Amazon was price matching.but no longer

Walmart is carrying some more Shout Factory titles. Some from both the Shout Select and Scream Factory lines. The ones I remember seeing are:

Brewster’s Millions
Firestarter
Road House
Starman

I think others have reported seeing others too. Such as:

Big Trouble in Little China
Cobra
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Escape From New York
The Thing
When Harry Met Sally

I can’t remember pricing, but I want to say they were mostly $9.96 and maybe some at $12.96.

joltman

I picked up Firestarter for 12.96. Some stores have even had The Fly Collection for $40, unfortunately none by me.

b2net

Saw most of those. Grabbed Dirty Rotten Scoundrels for $12.96 and Big Trouble in Little China for $14.96.

Why So Blu?

Personal Shopper CC BD is $15.99
