Now this is a game changer! Walmart is starting a new price matching program where they will match ONLINE PRICES in store! This is cool! Does Amazon sell something cheaper than Walmart? Match it! How about BestBuy.com? Match it!
Unfortunately, it’s in Beta in select areas right now but I’m sure it’s coming everywhere as quickly as they can get it out. It is currently available in Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, Phoenix, and NW Arkansas, so if you are lucky enough to live in those areas, start your price matching!
You can read the full Walmart information page here, but this is what we know so far.
