Wal-Mart Overpriced DVD Update

Add comment November 12th, 2007

I got a chance to speak to an assistant manager at the Wal-mart in question regarding the overpriced, non-discounted new release DVDs.

She said she would take it up with their marketing manager and that without anyone actually telling them the price increase bothered them they would never know. What a crock. They were just taking advantage of the people in that small town by not offering them what is offered in 5 other area Wal-marts and online to boot.

I was told they do not price comparison other Wal-marts or their own website. So I guess what they are telling me is that any Wal-mart any where can for no reason other than they want a few extra bucks jack the prices up. There is no corporate control at the store level of prices. It is a shame. I know they have lost my business. I would rather buy online from DeepDiscountDVD.com then go back there even if they go back to the same sale prices for the new release DVDs.

One of my all time favorite holiday films is The Christmas Story. I can relate to it because all I ever wanted growing up was a BB Gun. My Grandfather eventually got me one, just like in the film. In the film all Ralphie ever asks for is a Red Ryder BB Gun and all he ever hears is, “You’ll put your eye out.” Well with proper adult supervision and a little gun safety training a BB gun can be loads of fun and a valuable tool in teaching gun safety.

Well, the Red Ryder BB Gun is back and collectors and nostalgia freaks alike can get their very own! Get your inner little Ralphie a classic 1938 Daisy Red Ryder BB Gun with collectible BB tin available now at AirGunDepot.com.
