Walmart Bargains

[wolverine]

went to walmart for bicycle tubes and came home with airgun stuff.  the co2 was $8 and the last box.  the pellgun oil ($1) was also the last one.  plenty of rifle cases ($3.5) and pellet pens ($2).  i bought the last of the true oil ($2) and the last bipod ($7).   they only had 1 container of bbs left, i should have picked them up, but they weren't on sale.

Walmart may be going out of the gun business.

I went to my Walmart yesterday (San Diego) and there were no pellets, bullets, scopes, and only 3 Spriner pellet guns and minimal gun cleaning supplies. The shelves were being taken up with camping gear, and the gun shelves were basiclally empty. It does seem like they are phasing out of the gun business here in SD.

Online vendors are the new brick and mortar.

3 weeks ago i went in looking for mantles for my coleman propane lantern and they didn't have them.  the camping area wasn't what it use to be.  i had to order fishing line from Bass Pro because the shelves at wm are empty of line.  this is what happens when everything is made overseas.

AMEN. This current climate has been an eye opener on our level of reliance on so many other countries for goods.

Walmart only had one tin of 22 pellets of any kind when I went in early this week.

Used to make a beeline for the sporting goods dept. everytime we went to Walmart. Now we only go to Walmart if we have a specific item that we can only get there and just walk right past the sporting goods dept. Betty Lou has a habit of going to the clearance isle.... to be honest, we haven't found a thing there worth buying in over a year.
They even took my BP meds off the discount list... the co-pay doubled. I'm better off picking them up at the local Walgreens right here in our little town.
Seeya later Walmart.

Nice scores, Carl!

My local Super Walmart has been hit or miss, since this COVID mess started. Airgun and AG supplies comes and goes, but mostly have been sparse to nil. This was the same with fishing gear, but that's making a recovery.
Camping supplies have been plentiful and the powder burner case is still well stocked. PB ammo looks to be ok as well.
Bicycles? Forget about it!

Crosman pellets are made in New York. Why not full shelves then?

My local Sprawlmart had next to nothing Airgun-related when I ran over there this morning after seeing wolverine's post. Nothing they had was clearance priced. They recently stopped selling any powderburner ammo - supposedly all the other stores in Kalifornistan too.

Local Walmart has nada.

Online Walmart still has these.

Which is a good thing since I'll be ordering 3 more of them 1st of next month.

 I used to swing past the sporting goods every visit to Wall World, used to be to pick up whatever airgun related was on sale, now the only things I buy from WM is cat litter delivered to my door and last time the double bag of charcoal, that I made a bee line to the pickup section, while dodging people who can not see well wearing mask 

[maraudinglizard]

I just look it up on Ebay and order it, I don't mess with the big box stores anymore. The few sporting goods stores in this area have the weekend needs and soft goods but lack the real fishing and hunting supplies. Joys of living in a tourist trap.

[mst3kpimp]

just checked my wm in fl and no price change and same items, i even scanned to check.

[Hoosier Daddy]

The last 3 times I have been to our Walmart, in 2 months period, I have bought the last 40 count box of Co2 carts on the self. So they are still getting them, maybe in lower quantities, or People are scarfing them up as soon as they come in.
  Yes, the shelves are all but empty.

My walmart was pretty low on stuff today, too.  I did notice they have Tru-oil marked down to $5.  I was tempted, but I don't have any current or near future need for it, and I know there has to be some kind of limit to the shelf life of an unopened bottle. Left it there.

[mwgm2020]

I was there today and grabbed the last four tins of CPHPs for 6.24 each and a few other items.  The shelves were going bare.

[Xraycer]

I was at my most frequent Super Walmart and of course perused the sporting goods dept. Restocked with about 6 different makes of airguns, buit no airgun ammo.
However, I was really bummed to find that the powder burner case was completely free of the usual rifles. Completely gone! Last week, it was nearly full, with maybe 40 rifles.
I'm certain, they didn't just merely sold out because the car has now been reconfigured to hold pb ammo. The rifle racks have been removed.
Besides ammo, there was only one single boxed muzzle loader laying there by it's lonesome. This is a sad day for me. I had hoped this store stood by the NH motto: "Live free, or die" ☹️
