UPDATE: Gone!

Hurry on over to Red Plum’s site and print a coupon for $1.50 off any one Smucker’s Jam, Jelly, Preserves or Fruit Spread. And it doesn’t expire until 1/31/2012, so loads of time to use it. This coupon is a Red Plum’s Dash for Deals, so it is available to print today only or until it runs out of prints and I’m guessing this one won’t last long!

My Walmart Deals 9/19 (Cheap Hasbro Games)

This post may contain affiliate links. Read the full disclosure.

by

I noticed in Big Lot’s ad on Sunday that they had several Hasbro games on sale for $5.00 including Operation Toy Story 3 which was pictured in their ad. Well, Big Lots doesn’t take coupons, but Walmart does and they also price match! I was happy to find that they were fully stocked and had at least 15-20 of these on their shelf. Note: I have heard that some Walmarts do not price match Big Lots. I had never tried to price match with Big Lots before so this was my first experience. I told the cashier the price match & he balked because there was such a big difference in price, but I showed him the ad and he priced matched them without any issues. I’m curious, have you had success with price matching at Walmart? What was your experience like, feel free to comment!
