No clearance
No new 2021 sets
Hardly any stock of anything else LEGO
The best I could find were some #75225 Yoda for $55. According to the app there was a WM an hour away that had them for $30....but that a drive for a "maybe".
Seriously, everything around here flies at 10% off. Heck, they could probably mark it UP 10% and it would fly off the shelves here.
The Walmart Brickseek site showed me several polys "that were" all 50 cents. The handful I found in store though all range up as 3.97. A bit disappointed.
Wondering if anyone had any luck or discovered the same thing as me.
I hear ya. I have really had to stop and think now when it comes to buying a ton of LEGO on sale/clearance, not because I may feel it still isn't a good deal (it typically is), but because my argument of ' I can always part it out' is exhausted when I look around my home and see tons of LEGO sets to 'part out' and 'parted out' sets to actually start organizing from 'color' into 'part type'.
War Machine Buster = $8.40

Oh, wait, that's at my local store not online.
Keep hunting!
They did finally have the 2021 sets out for the most part though... took them long enough! Was able to grab the rest of the series 21 figs my kid was looking for.
I would theorize that Walmart may be changing the normal price to .00 just to reinforce the .99 effect, so discounts of even a few cents will drive more sales. They certainly don’t have a problem with changing their prices frequently (and with little obvious reason).
It's the same weirdos(my opinion) that flock to Kmart/Sears/JCPennys/Gordmans in a panic to buy groceries or useless crap they don't need at 10% off all in the name of "store closing". When their prices were 15-25% higher to begin with. Or they could just drive down the street to another store and get it cheaper or at the same price.
People don't know prices or comparison shop or don't care.
Walmart was a xx.97 to be a penny lower than Targets xx.98. Not sure if Target has changed their prices also. I would guess this has been a strategy in the works for a few years by Walmart. They started lowering prices or "roll backs" to end in xx.00 on some products a few years ago. To me, it was confusing because that's what their 'clearance' prices always ended in. But isn't that the WM way...marking stuff as 'clearance' when it's the suggested RRP.
