PO'd at walmart

Walmart had a sale starting at 6 pm another starting at 8 pm tonight. Nothing on the 6 pm sale we want. The 8 pm sale had the HP laptop for $160, planned to get 2 and a few other items. We enter the Southaven store at 6 pm, battled our way to the back of the store. All the tickets had been given out. We battled out way back out of the store. Returned to keeping our little granddaughters for the evening.
As soon as we got home I sent walmart an email, thanking them for holding back on sales items. And I'll never use that store again.

GOOD OLE CHINA TOWN .:deadhorse

What did they do wrong?

Just drove past one. That's as close as I intend to get.

I will NEVER set foot in a Walmart on Thanksgiving or black Friday............even if they are giving away stuff for FREE! It's not worth the aggravation!

Not worth it. One person don't matter to that store. They sold everything they had to sell, that's all they care about.

With that sale starting at 8 pm I expected to see a line of people waiting for their ticket.

Shop on line no hassle.

DITTO!

Mr. Jim, I checked online, in store only.
I'll check at the auction tonight.

Have not been in a walmart for a year.

I can learn to live without it. Other stores offer about the same items for about the same price, sometimes better deals on everyday prices.

Good ol Wally World lol can't stand them

My wife has not set foot in a Wal Mart in over 5 years. Her grandmother passed away and my wife was in charge of getting pictures together for the slide show to be shown at the visitation. She got several pictures together that represented her grandmother's life as well as the family over the years, e-mailed them to the store, paid for a photo CD, and thought all was well. The next morning she went to our local store and the clerk wouldn't give her the CD. She asked to see a manager then the store manager. Seems there was one photo of her grandparents wedding day that was done in a studio but had no photo company markings on it. All of the employees said my wife would have to produce a waiver from the photographer for the photo THAT WAS 70 years OLD!! When she asked for the rest of the photos on the CD they refused. She is as mild mannered as they come but she went thermo-nuclear on the whole bunch! She told me later.....

She left the store in tears and swore they would never see her darken their door again and she has been true to her word, even out of town or out of state.

As to the OP, I'm sure you felt wronged but IMO, you were pretty naive to think they wouldn't give out item claim numbers several hours prior to the advertised time. That way they can trap the "shoppers" in the store for hours while they impulse buy all kinds of Chinese junk.
