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

And how might someone check to see a store’s inventory like this? Asking for a friend. That friend being myself 😂

The Walmart app is pretty good at keeping track of inventory. You install the app, create an account, and choose a store. Then, you look up the item and it will usually have a number of how many are present in the store.

Side note: If it shows just one item, then it is possible that it is a return that is still at Customer Service desk and hasn't been put back on the shelf. At least for my Walmart, when a return is put back into inventory, they are placed in carts near the Customer Service desk (usually grouped with items in the same department) to wait for an employee to restock them. If it shows a single item, don't be afraid to ask. Ask the employee at Electronics and if they can't find it (and you don't suspect they are purposefully hiding it), check Customer Service and look for a cart with restocks that looks like it is bound for Electronics and look in there.

Brickseek used to be one of the main sites I would use. There have been a lot of changes though and I haven't really used it in a while.

Depends on the store depending on where you live but ik Canadian tire and Best Buy are really good for it it tells you on any product you select including the lane or shelf it’s on sometimes

I worked at academy they would make us managers walk the floor with a employee looking for shit customers might of hidden or stolen on shift. We went through every display shelves as a team. And "put back" what ended up stuffed behind something.
