- I have new information to score you insider
crazy clearance deals at your local Walmart,
and how to unlock lower prices than what you see advertised.
Welcome back to the channel,
I'm the YouTube deal guy, Matt Granite.
I did a video on this last year,
and many of you guys have questions,
you've received some pushback from Walmart employees.
I'm gonna explain the breakdown of specifically
what you need to do to unlock these crazy clearance deals.
I'll take you along on this wild ride of savings
through my local store, show you how I pay a lower price
at checkout, and get all of your questions answered.
With just a few seconds of your time,
you could be saving significant amounts of money.
If you guys like this content,
please give this video a thumbs up.
Let's begin with specifically what you need to do,
and then we will unlock those lower prices.
First, download the Walmart app.
And I will tell you, this video is not sponsored in any way,
this is to help you unlock the lower prices.
When you walk through the store
with your Walmart app enabled.
If you've got a smart phone,
you can use your smartphone's camera to scan the price tags
corresponding to whatever purchase it is you're considering
to lock in what is often a significantly lower price.
Now, there are a couple of things
that you need to make sure of.
I will go through that in a moment but first,
let's use this Vizio soundbar as an example,
as I walk through my store.
The Vizio soundbar has an advertised price of $198.
I open up the app, I scan the tag,
and the Vizio soundbar drops
to a price of $178 on my Walmart app.
I can then check out with the price of 178 versus 198.
Now, some of you guys might be thinking to yourselves,
well, that's only $20, but watch these savings add up
over the course of this video.
And more importantly, if you see a price advertised
that seems unattainable to you,
just knowing through the app
that there's a lower price available,
you might actually be able to get the item
that you wouldn't have purchased in the first place.
Let me quickly take you through
Walmart's terms and conditions
and their price match policy to ensure
this always works in your favor.
So I'm pulling the policy right from walmart.com's website.
I'll also post this in the video description box,
and they do have a specific policy tied to their website.
We will match walmart.com and jet.com's base price
for identical items purchased in a Walmart store.
That is specifically what it says on the website.
And I know for my last video, some of you guys ran
into a lot of pushback
when you tried to employ these tactics.
So if you know the following,
you can avoid potential future disappointment.
The customer must inform
the associate of the price, awesome.
The item must currently be in stock
on walmart.com at the time the price match is requested.
So if you are scanning an item in your store
that is not available on walmart.com,
it would not work in your favor.
It also needs to be an item that is shipped from
and sold by Walmart.
Keep in mind, Walmart like Amazon and eBay is a marketplace
that's also comprised of thousands of merchants
that have nothing to do with fulfillment by Walmart.
So you have to make sure that when you are scanning,
that the item is in fact fulfilled by Walmart.
Now, here's the tricky part.
If the register prompts for supervisor approval,
the supervisor must verify the price,
the availability has to be identical item
on walmart.com versus what's available in store.
Some of you guys have asked what happens
if you're shopping through the store and you're getting
all of these lower prices, can you screenshot them?
You can screenshot them for your own personal reference,
but when you actually approach a supervisor
or someone at the cash register
which will hopefully be a pleasant experience for you,
you need to actually show them what is live on the app.
And while this won't help you if you're buying dozens
and dozens of items and trying to score the lower price,
their policy now implements this rule
which is we reserve the right to limit quantities
to one per customer per item per day.
Well, I'm not bothered by that.
I could do the hidden clearance deal at one Walmart
and then drive to another.
You could drive through an entire estate,
going through your shopping list
and potentially saving hundreds of dollars.
We'll get back to that in a moment.
There is a way to completely bypass
having to speak to any manager.
And I will get to that in a moment,
and that's tied to hidden clearance in store deals.
But finally, as I wrap up through this policy,
it does unfortunately mention the manager on duty
has the final decision on any price match.
So they can just completely deny you right out,
although in my experience that hasn't happened.
I did mention there's a way to completely bypass
having to speak to anyone.
And this is tied to a different type
of in-store hidden secret clearance deal,
and that is with this self checkout system.
So let's use this mask as an example.
It is priced at $10 and when I scan it,
I pull a price of $5.
In this case,
I've used my app to essentially provide a price check.
I've seen a price of $10 in the store,
it didn't seem right to me,
I've used my app and I've unlocked the price
that it should be listed for, which is $5.
And then I can take the product to self-checkout
that I wouldn't have purchased for $10
but my app showed me the lower price.
I now think to myself, all right, that's a better deal.
I can now buy it at the self-checkout station
without ever having to deal with anyone.
Before I reveal some more epic savings
tied to products that you might already be considering
as a purchase from Walmart,
some of you guys might be thinking, well,
why would Walmart put one price tag with a price?
And then y'all have to walk around
like crazy people going like this to find a lower price.
Well, first of all, I don't get out much, I like it.
And the whole treasure hunt sensation
just kinda makes me feel good.
And I think when my daughter grows up
she'll be a really good tag along
as we just go through the store together.
My wife thinks we're nuts, but you are,
in some cases, just finding a price
that's outdated in the store
and the walmart.com app is revealing the price
that it should in fact be selling for.
Does this mean you have to just scan
through items through the store like this
trying to find what you wanna buy that's actually mispriced?
No, it comes down to that thing of, well,
you see a price on a vacuum cleaner, for example,
which I'm going to get to in a moment
and it's a bit higher than you'd like to pay.
But if you scan the price tag, you might actually see it
at a more relatable price based on your budget.
And let's go through that example right now.
This vacuum is $199.
I might not wanna spend a full $200.
So I scan it and I reveal
that it is in fact, a price of 179.
Let's consider these headphones,
179, I know for a fact is not a great price for them
but when I find out that they're on sale for 159,
it's a little bit more enticing.
When it comes to a big brand like Netgear,
129 down to $99 is a substantial difference.
And this is just me spending a few extra seconds
using my app.
Now, on all of those examples that I just showed you,
those are not mispriced in store.
I am in fact, using the Walmart app to unlock a lower price
with the ships from and sold from Walmart.
So let's go through that very quickly.
I've scanned the items.
And again, the app has confirmed and revealed
that this is shipped from and sold by Walmart.
So I go to checkout.
I might have to have a manager come for the approval.
I show them the app, and I am able to take
at their discretion, one lower price on one of those items.
Now, I didn't need any of those items
but for the purpose of saving you guys money,
that was the example that I wanted to show.
It's a few things you need to remember in your head.
It might seem overwhelming.
And I know I'm talking a mile a minute,
but don't worry I'm closed captioned.
I just wanna put the savings in your pocket
which brings me to this next example.
I scanned the face shield at almost $5
and I unlock a price of just one buck, substantial savings.
On this power adapter for 50 bucks, 49.98,
I scan it and I unlock a price of $28.99.
I put the power adapter into my physical shopping cart.
I make my way through the store.
I grab a few more items.
I scan a few more prices.
And then as I approach checkout, I say to myself,
all right, which of the secret hidden clearance deals
do I really want to buy at this moment?
I scan through my screenshots where I've bookmarked
each of the lower prices.
And if it's the power adapter that I determine
I wanna buy, I go to checkout,
I present that for possibly a manager approval
or an override, and then I'm good.
And then I remember, the next time I'm in Walmart
which could be 20 minutes later in a different area,
that there's a different item that I wanna buy.
And I'm not saying you wanna spend your time
driving from one Walmart to the next,
but if you're already there shopping, you can then go home,
order it on your mobile device, get it from walmart.com
and just bypass the store altogether.
But this app is a way to unlock lower prices
and more information, which should be in your hands
and more dollars, which should be in your pockets
and not in the pockets of Walmart.
Let's see another example.
This remote control priced at $13.47
drops to $11 when I use the app.
And this crazy car visor at a hidden clearance price, $13.88
down to $2 when I use the Walmart app to scan it.
I don't know why it only has one star,
but it is a car visor and a purchase that I might now make,
knowing that the product is just two bucks.
And now two other insider secrets to help you
save even more money on clearance at Walmart.
The first, keep a very close eye
on price discrepancies in the gaming section at Walmart.
If you are a gamer right now
or if you're a parent or grandparent of a gamer,
you might commonly associate the better gaming deals
with Best Buy.
Walmart has them, you just need to scan.
'cause most of their prices could be a lot lower.
Let's use The Sims as an example.
This game has an in-store advertised price of $33.84.
A quick scan will reveal a price of $9.99,
a significantly better price that you can walk home with
under 10 bucks versus paying almost 34.
And as another example, if you see something behind glass
at a Walmart, don't let that deter your joy of scanning.
You can still approach those items and scan.
I wanna use the Roku 4K HDR streaming system as an example,
tucked away behind glass
but still a price that you could potentially lower
if you get the right tag.
In store advertised price, $99,
the price that you could actually buy it for, 79.
And that's information you wouldn't have otherwise
had available unless you had your smartphone
and that app installed.
And hopefully after watching this video, you're now armed
with more information to put more cash back
in your pocket, where it belongs.
