I had gone into one of my local Wal Marts to get some bags and maybe Blackout (I think I missed out on him) when I stumbled upon this guy sitting all forlorn by him self on the shelf, it was almost like he could not deal with this or something...
Any way I take him over to a scaner and he don't pull up a price, I deside to see if a check out person could ring it up....
After about 5 mins the manger comes back and I am able to purchase it. The people behind me were good natured about it, how ever this one lady behind them, she was the spitting image of trailer trash, from her smokeing devistated voice, to yelling at her child, to eating the fried chicken she was going to buy while in the line.
Now she did not say anything to me, but she was a bit tough on the gal that was manning the register.
Anyways, just thought I'd share my scoop. Heh, of all things to find at a Wal Mart eh? |

It seems they must be accepting returns from the online orders and then just putting them on the shelf. That would explain the price and there only being one in your case. |
