Walmart is clearly the best spot for Black Friday Shopping this year. One of the big reasons is the 1 Hour In Stock Guarantee on 3 hot items on Thursday November 22 from 10-11 PM. I talked about this in my Top 15 Black Friday Deals at Walmart, but it is so cool I thought it deserved it’s own post. I am also nicknaming this Brown Thursday! (Thanks Jen, Sawdust Walmart)
If you are in line for one of the three guaranteed in stock items, you WILL get it for that price even if they run out! In the event that they don’t have enough on hand they will make available a guarantee card, I believe you will have to pay for it at that time but you will get the item at that price.
The limit is 1 per CUSTOMER, per item!
Here are the items in the 1-Hour In Stock Guarantee:
1. iPad 2 16GB with Wi-Fi: $399 + $75 Gift Card
2. Emerson 32″ LCD HDTV: $148
3. LG Blu-ray Player: $38
Walmart Black Friday Strategy Idea: You should be able to get at least 2 of these items. As soon as you get through the first line go get in line for the second one, as long as it is within the hour you will get both! I see this being very doable!

I’m new to all this… On Thanksgiving I have to purchase items 8pm and then certain items at 10 pm or can it be all one purchase and still get the ads price?
Will these one hour guarantee items be in-store only? Or is it possible to get them online? Thanks.
I am wondering the same thing. I doubt they will be available online- but…never know.
Do the other sale items have limits or just the three guaranteed?
these are the only ones that walmart will guarantee stock at that price. The others are a limited quantity based on stock in hand.
Do only these items have limits. I don’t see that the other items in the ad have limits but I would like to be sure!
Thanks!
If I buy the vizio online at walmart.com, can I price match it on Thursday at the store. The reason I’m asking is because no store seems to have it on hand, so I can’t put it on lay-away to make sure i’ll be able to get one on thursday.
No, it won’t work that way. it may be on sale online though.
Do you know if there are limits on everything else at the sales? I really want to get two of the Nook Colors but don’t see that information anywhere!!!
Meant to add that i called a Walmart and they ‘think’ there’s a limit of one per person but weren’t sure and there’s nothing documented anywhere either way. So how are we supposed to know anything other than the three guaranteed items are limited? Thanks!!
there is a limit of one per person, it says it on the ad. you can have more than 1 person in line.
I don’t see where it says that? The only thing i see is about them reserving the right to limit to one item per person. Am i looking in the wrong place? Sorry 🙂
I sooo dislike Walmart . Problems with registering card . Tried get my money back after four phone calls, three visits to the store , three custimer service girls, spoke with three managers and they still will not give me my money back that I paid cash for unit the ipad ships to the store 5-10 days. Nice going tying up my money of $434.00. No where on My receipt does it say I cannot get a refund . Scam scam scam SECAM
