I don't think the $3.xx DVDs will last for weeks like they did last year... although I hope I'm wrong.

that list is nowhere near as good as what they had last year for 3.88, IMHO. The only ones that I'd be interested in are mostly foolscreen only. Walmart has made it easy to stay home and shop elsewhere online too.

Just in - WalMart to match prices on Friday. Any item found in a competitor's print ad that is available at WalMart they will pricematch.
Last year when Best Buy ran 24 season 1 for $12.99, the shelf was empty at Wal-Mart, but I spotted 4 copies sitting behind the counter.

So the above list has everything that will be in the $3.44 displays in the store?
Does anyone have a list of what's in the $3.88 displays?
In the above list there are 9 titles that I wouldn't mind getting for $3.44, but I don't think they are worth going at 5 AM for. Since Walmart is 1 mile away, I think I'll try going around 8 AM hoping it's less insane after a few hours and that there are still some good DVDs left. If it's too ridiculous I'll turn around without even going in. I already know I'll have to park on the far side of the parking lot.

I would have called a manager, if they are in view and can be seen by a customer they must be sold. Anything else is understocking and AGAINST Wal-Mart policy. I would have then followed it up with a call to 1-800-WAL-MART. This year especially Wal-Mart is discounting after last year's 3% drop in sales since they didn't heavily discount. They are using this BF ad matching campaign in an attempt to boost sales again. They won't want to have this type of thing going on in their stores this year.

They are listed online, and you can apparently order them at this time.

I got back and picked up Bewitched, The Interpreter, and The Longest Yard for $8 each.
I picked up Road to Perdition (WS), Blade Runner, Airheads, and Solaris for $3.44 each.
I also wanted Catch Me if You Can, but all that my store had were Full Screen.

I thought there'd be a lot more posts to this thread by now. My Walmart still had stacks of $3.44 DVDs, and the crowds were surprisingly small when I went around 7:30 AM. It was no worse than a busy weekend, and the parking lot was barely a quarter full.
I found virtually every title I was looking for EXCEPT that many of those were Full Screen only, such as Welcome to Mooseport, Down with Love, plus several I wanted to pricematch like Hulk 2-DVD, Anger Management, Happy Gilmore SE, Billy Madison SE, and The Interpreter. How I hate all those Full Screen titles. I did get a Madagascar LBX for $9.99.
Many people were looking for Minority Report, Road to Perdition, and Collateral, but I didn't see those titles anywhere, and one of the clerks said they hadn't seen them either, so I guess some of the main ones they advertised for $3.44 were nowhere to be found. I had already bought all 3 for $10-$15 when they came out, so I wasn't looking for them.
I wonder if all Walmarts across the country were as un-busy as my Supercenter, or mine was an exception. I actually went to a couple other places in the same mall (like Ultimate Electronics) and if I hadn't known it was Black Friday I would've thought it was just another weekend crowd.
