Heads up! As I mention previously, Walmart stores across the country and Walmart.com will be offering up Black Friday-Like prices on popular toys, electronics, and more one week early. Well, this Pre-Black Friday sale was supposed to start tomorrow, but apparently prices are already ringing up at the reduced prices NOW (it appears just in-store and not online)! I have received several emails from readers and even had my friend who lives in Florida go test at her local Walmart and the prices are ringing up at the Pre-Black Friday advertised prices found here! 😀

Check out the email I received from reader, Tiffany:

Hey!! I just left Walmart and tomorrow’s Pre-Black Friday prices are already active!! My general manager told me Walmart turned them on early and to sell away! I got a leapPad 2 $39.99, game $15 and found a gel skin for $3 on clearance! SCORE!

* IMPORTANT NOTE – be sure to price check items if they are not marked!

Here are some of the toys and electronics that are part of Walmart’s Pre-Black Friday Saving Event (only while supplies last!):

LeapPad 2 $39.99 (was $79)
Play-Doh 4-pack $1 (was $2.96)


Little Tikes Cozy Coupe $34.99
(was $49.87)

Select Board Games only $5 (including Monopoly and more!)
Nerf Rebelle Crossbow $11.99 (was $19.88)

(Thanks, Sonya, Tiffany, and Ana!)

    My husband picked up the swap force and infinity in Sioux Falls, SD. Said they had a ton in stock.

  2. Shanekaht

    I just got my Swapforce here in Hatfield, PA. I was at Walnart almost an hour and was told that the Swapforce for the Wii was out. I seen a manager and ask him could he scan the barcode for the Wii to see if they had any in the back of the store and he said wait a minute walked off and come back with on a Wii Skylanders Swapforce. Remember, just because the item is not on the shelves doesn’t mean the store doesn’t have it I’m there inventory. I tried to use my MQ from the Cheetos bag and it had expired on 11/17/2013. Just curious if there are any other MQ for SwapForce out there. Also, Toy r us will have Swapforce on sale on Black Friday fir $37.49.

    • angel

      mine says it expires 11/30/2013, it came in the frito-lay snack packs bag around the time school started

      • tilla ham

        mine says 11/31/2013:)

        • Rae

  3. Nia

    Went again to another Walmart only found 1 leap pad. The girl suggested they had more but couldn’t put up till tomorrow

  4. Stephanie

    I just got the leap pad! Second walmart of the night first was sold out but this one had 10+ Thanks for the great deal!

  5. ashley

    WISCONSIN shoppers will most likely NOT be able to get some of these deals because of the law from 1930 regarding pricing of items. Its stupid but not my first year seeing nice deals that I cant get because we live in Wi.

    • Alicia

      Yup. A friend called our local Walmart and was told this.

    • axhilli

      which law.

    • Latoya

      Man!!!….I was excited about those leap pads too 🙁

    • Jasmine

      What is the law?

      • ashley

        Its called the wisconsin minimum markup law. If you look at the flyers some state not valid in Wisconsin.

        • ashley

          Sorry thats what its referred to as the true law is called Wisconsin Unfair Sales Act I beileve

  6. Jen

    Just got Wits and Wagers party game online for $12.

  7. Lisa

    Anyone know if this is working in Chicagoland area? We have a 24 hour one not too far

    • Kamila

      Yes, it works. Just got home from a store in Northlake, IL and got skylanders. They didn’t have the leappad, that I wanted so much.

    • annad

      Sold out in Bolingbrook and Romeoville. Darien had pink ones left

      • Charlotte

        The Plainfield store only has green ones left (2) when I left the store 20 mins ago. 😉

    • Carrie

      We just bought one from the Rockford store

    • Charlotte

      Yes it works, I have been to both Bolingbrook and Plainfield this evening. 🙂

      • annad

        Darn Plainfield is so much closer to me!! I’m by the bolingbrook golfcourse

    • Sue

      I saw them at the Morris store.

  8. Jessica

  9. Samanda M

  13. Jillian

  14. Jamie

    Will Walmart accept the Target toy catalog coupons? There are ones for $5 off on Infinity, Skylanders and Nerf.

    • Tomoko

      I think The target Skylanders and Infinity Q excludes starter pack.

  15. Mandy

    I just got the Leap Pad for $39, a game for $15 and PlayDoh for $1 in MD – super happy! Thanks for this post!!!

  16. Oanh

    I was able to get 3 Skylanders Swap Force and 3 Infinity Starter Packs. My son, nieces, and nephews are going to LOVE me this Christmas!

  17. shaikh

    sent hubby to buy leappad 2 and he found 1…..now my question is can we download youtube videos on it or do we have to buy each and every app…
    my daughter loves to watch n listen to nursery rhymes and i bought it anticipating that it will keep her busy..

    • rae

      Im not sure if the leap pad 2 streams video I think is just the leappad ultra(the newest system) that does. It will come with some apps on it though and you have to buy more. Watch on Amazon.com there will be the $20 app card on sale for $15ish and then wait for app sales like bogo 50% off. The age and comprehension of your little one will really be what determines if she is entertained by the games leappad offers. Most game cartridges will run you about $20 and download apps are $5-20. We have one for DS and have had it since he was 1.5 he is 3.5 now and he MUCH prefers to use our Kindle with learning games that are 1) cheaper than leap pad games/apps and 2)more forgiving/easier to use and understand for younger toddlers. Also the Kindle does have streaming video. Oh and as I mentioned in another comment earlier LeapPads BURN through batteries unless, as someone else mentioned, you get the a/c adapter plug-ins and have one for the wall and for the car (unless its the LeapPad 2 Power, which has the recharger pack)

    • Tiffany

      The LP1 and LP2 do not have Wifi, so no youtube or youtube app

  18. Julie Ball

    What do I need to know about heading straight to target to price match? Walmart is too far to try to get to on my time crunch;).

    • annad

      They have to be able to look it up online or ad. So you can go tomorrow and show it to cs on your phone

      • Tiffany

        Most Targets have an ipad where they scan the item and they are able to pull up the price at their competitors and i believe it has to be in stock at the competitors… as far as showing an ad that is not a paper ad, I was told by cs that they would not accept ads on mobile devices (like if i pulled up the weekly ad for walgreens on my phone to pricematch… they said i’d have to have the paper in hand) , OT but I they also said that they at my local target they do not price match places like family dollar or dollar general because they are not considered a competitor… plus, there wasn’t a paper ad for this ‘pre black friday event from walmart.

    • Nia

      You may need to wait till tomorrow? There is nothing on adds about sale starting today (even though it actually did!) and all the online prices haven’t been reduced to the sale/store prices yet! I would just go to Walmart!!

      • Julie Ball

        Have to wait until tomorrow bc I am in bed;). Planning on going to target at 8, so all I need is a saved picture of that ad?

        • Robin

          I went to Target Tuesday night and asked if they were going to match the sale prices that Wal-Mart was having on Friday. They said they are not matching these prices. That might just be my store though. It is worth trying. It’s funny though that they new about the sale but the Wal-Mart employees that I talked to last night and tonight didn’t know anything about the sale :-).

  19. Carrie

    When my husband and I entered the toy department there was a lady with 2 Leap Pads in her cart. We found them and picked up one immediately. As we were browsing in the section another lady came in and grabbed 4 of them and now there are none. Thank goodness we got there when we did! My husband and I have no idea what the Leap Pad is because we don’t have kids yet (it’s for our niece), but based on the reaction of this post we’re hoping it’s something great!

    • Rachel

      I bought leap ads last year honestly it’s better to get a cheap tablet the games are about 20 each u can’t get online or download anything. My kids love the games and big screen they use the video recorder. This year were buying the 50 tablet

  20. Heather

    Lisa, I was able to get the Disney Infinity at our WM here in central IL. Hopefully working in Chicagoland too!

  21. K

    This was going at my Walmart in Utah! Got a whole bunch of good deals. Also note that I scanned the Doc McStuffins drs bag (marked $15) and it rang up for $7.99! (its not even listed as one of the sales) Price check everything because not one item I purchased was marked!!!

    • Melissa

      Thanks K! I went today and picked one up for my daughter. 🙂

  22. Emily

    Just picked up LeapPad2, Skylanders and Infinity Starter Packs!!!

  23. jen

    I just got back from my Walmart here in Nashville and was able to get the swapforce, infinity and cozy couper. I got the last swapforce on the shelf and there was only one more cozy couper and I saw it just laid out in the middle of the diaper aisle….but, the workers were working like crazy setting up boxes in the middle of the aisles (like they do on black Friday). They were still taped up next to the toy section.

  24. lynn

    Thank you so much!!! just got back and got the Disney Infinity!!!!! (in southeast louisiana). So happy I don’t have to stress about it tomorrow.

    I also scanned the Razor scooters like the ones target has on sale for 19.99 black friday and they were marked down to 24.98 instead of 34.98.

    I have a feeling there will be a lot of unadvertised deals so PLEASE let us know if you find any.

    • kristy

      I found the Simon Flash and Scrabble Flash games for only $3.00 reg $14.97 🙂

      • Melissa

        Thanks for the heads up. I picked up a scrabble flash for $3.00 thanks to you!

  25. Brenda

    Wal-mart in Woodstock ga was completely stocked!!!!! Got the Disney pack 🙂

  26. Teetee20055

    My store had everything and plenty left. I just got a Leappad game. $15 and connect 4.

    What other board games are people finding?

    I think our store had lots because the Saints were playing the Falcons and if anyone lives or lived in LA you know how they are about their homestead.

  27. Tiffanie

    My local walmart is clueless and has no idea what I’m talking about. I had to show them the ad on my phone. I was told to come back tomorrow and the prices might be different. WTH???

  28. Cassandra

    Thanks, Collin for the post!

  29. Heather

    FYI everyone.. the pink Vtech Innotab 2S is only $35 shipped at Kmart right now!! I just ordered one. My daughter has a Leappad (she’s 4 & has loved it!).. but I was excited when I found out you can actually insert an SD card into the Innotab and my little one can watch our movies we have downloaded.. sweet!!

    If anyone misses this LeapPad deal at Walmart, Amazon is set to start their Black Friday Sale on Sunday the 24th. The sale runs all week and the leaked list shows: 50% off LeapFrog LeapPad2 Learning Tablet – Doc McStuffins Bundle (Amazon Exclusive).

  31. misty

    Scored 2 swapforce for Wii, and a leap pad. Woo hoo!!

  32. Jai

    Walmart here was stocked with all items. Nice employee walked around with me scanning prices. Got monopoly & sorry $5, fairy tale teens were $8.99 ( price on shelf said 17.??), hot wheels .60 , play doh $1, connect four & trouble $5, doc mcstuffin kit 7.77, leappad games $15, leappads, disney infinity, and skylander swap force. These were some I snagged.

  33. Amanda B.

    Thanks so much for the heads up! I am not a Black Friday kind of gal but this is just my thing. Thought everyone in the electronics dept was there for the great deals then realized the new XBoX came out at midnight. Love your site! =]

  34. Michelle

    All the Tags marked for this sale stated the sale prices would be good all week until the 29th including the Leap pad thingy.

  35. Kalyn

    Scored the skylanders game, infinity game, 8 board games, 2 nerf crossbows, one nerf gun, and the little people princess castle! I didn’t know the castle was on sale for 24.99!!! So happy 🙂 no lines, no crowds… Way to go Walmart!!!

  36. Ketsy

    Awesome! I can always count on hip2save! Last evening we had a school thanksgiving with the kids, then date night with the hubby. I got home and saw this and we flew to Walmart. Grabbed the skylanders for kids, nephews and my cousin who is babysitting the kids. Awesome! I had the $10 off coupons from Frito Lay so scored big time! Long night and so worth it!

    • Cathy S

      what is the $10 coupon from Frito-Lay? Do you know if it’s still available online?

  37. Katie Toczek

    Target has their Leappad 2 for $39.99 now online.

  38. Amy

    I think that it is great that this was posted, but I do not agree with the fact that Walmart started the sale early. It was advertised as starting on Fri.,and that is when it should have started. I feel bad for those that go there in the morning, only to see the shelves cleared. (I am not bitter; I had no plans to buy anything).

    • Melissa

      I agree!

  39. Nicole

    When does this start online?

  40. Cathy S

    I just ordered Skylanders Swap Force for Wii for $37 w/ free shipping from Target.com!!!

  41. Teri

    Target has the leappad 2 online for same price, price is hidden until you add to cart.

    • Jen

      THANK YOU! I’ve been so stressed about this since last night. I’m in WI so I knew I wouldn’t be able to get the deal in-store. Set an alarm for every hour since 4am to check if the Walmart deal is live yet, and woke up at 6, read this, and just got 2 leap pads from Target. Saved an extra 5% with my redcard, and got free shipping. My twins are going to love these. Again, thank you so much for posting this!!! 🙂

  42. Sara

    Infinity is also on sale @ Target.com

  43. Kristin

    Target.com is sold out of the green leap pad 2. 🙁

  44. Kamila

    The green leap pad is out of stock in Target. -((

  45. Kamila

    … and the pink one can not put in the cart…

  46. gatorgirl772Jenn

    Am I missing something? I have been online since 5am EST to get the pink Leap Pad 2 and it is still showing regular price on walmart.com?!

    • Michelle

      I just asked the same thing…I’m wondering if it has to be 8 am in Cali for it to open.

      • Brittany

        Yeah, I’m hoping Collin will weigh in! I have a feeling though that there are going to be many opportunities to snag leap pad at this price over the next month.

    • staci

      Me too

  47. Michelle

    When does it start online? Is it 8 am for the entire country or 8 am eastern time?

  48. Brittany

    Are they not doing the sale online? It’s 8:13 and nothing…

  49. Tina

    Does anyone know why the leappad 2 is still $79?

  50. Sjack

    I cant see $39 leappad 2 price ?

    • Pam

      I was able to add the leap pad to my cart and when I clicked on checkout it was $39.00, I just got my delivery confirmation.
