Walmart Deal

Yesterday Josh had some money and we were at Walmart for the some post Christmas deals... Like wrapping paper and stuff. We were checking out the Legos and found the Exo-Force Mobile Devastator that was open with a little tape from a return and one side ripped open. On the Walmart site it says that the cost is $88.88. It's not even available to buy there. It is also stated as unavailable at the Lego site. Josh has really been interested in Exo-Force so I suggested that we bring it up to the counter and find out if they would give us a discount. I knew it was between $89.00 and $100.00 retail price. The lady at the counter said that she could discount it 10%. I asked her if she would get the manager to see if she would discount it more. When the manager came she also said 10%. I said that I was concerned that some pieces may be missing and I thought that it should be discounted for that possibility. She didn't budge. Then I suggested we ring it up and see what the price was. It came up as $49.99 on the register and then the manager said she would sell it for $25.00. Little did she know she may have had me at $50.00. Oh well Walmart... Roll back those prices. Josh got a great deal. He was all smiles.



I got a similar deal at a Walmart in Wyoming on our trip back from Colorado. It was for the Lego Basketball court and the top half of the box was ripped off. We got the whole court for under $5.00. It was over $50.00 normally and I was haggling for a percentage off and contemplating the purchase when she rang it up it was about $4.97 or something. She still took the percentage off that she promised without any prompting from me. I think we ended up paying 3 something.
