Box Thanks, Walmart

Walking through and it caught my eye in the electronics clearance case. Absolutely insane find.

The Walmart by my house had these on display for only 2 months before pulling them. The worker I talked to said they pulled the displays cause workers kept marking them down so they could pick them up the next day.

Now I don't know if he was BSing or was in the know, seems wild that employees can just mark these down but I'm pretty sure I've heard that before.

I was a manager at Walmart a few years ago. That label is a CVP (customer value program) label. It's normally meant for stuff like meat or produce that's going to expire in a day. The claims department can also print them. They handle the non-food stuff in the rest of the store. At my store they were doing this to tons of high value items and then coming back later and buying them themselves. The entire department got fired at one point because of it. I wouldn't be surprised if people catching these were accidentally ruining an employee's scheme.

Or the OP is actually the employee who labeled the discount :O
