Wal-Mart Black Friday Secret Sale Items-Unbelievable!
Just when I thought it could not be any funnier than some of the Best Buy limited specials. Wal-mart added a number of Black Friday secret sale items from 5AM-11AM. They have a special on a high end mixer, a laptop for $388.00 and some other items. Of course the ad on Yahoo states min 1 unit per store. Hard to believe that they would try such things. Defintiely a secret as the products featured might be sold by 5:01 AM. I suggest anyone going to Wal-mart should buy only the sale items and get out. I really don’t think they have anything worth getting up at 5 AM for. I think the whole black friday thing has been more looking than spending the past few years and this is partly due to the power of internet retailing and the lack of super hot products to drive sales, and the lack of special deals on those products. I think the retailers are not creative enough in their approach.

Last year I did exactly that – I started at midnight and stayed cosy and warm at my computer. I goit most of everything I wanted, most of the shipping was free and while some items were out of stock, a lot of that had to do with my poor pre-planning and indecision.
I will be at Walmart this year – I am awake nights, we have a Super Center and I need cat food. If I snag a bargain, wonderful! If not, I will live.
