The big surprise in the Walmart Black Friday 2016 ad is that there are no 1-Hour Guarantee Black Friday deals this year allowing stores that ran out of HOT products before 7 p.m. on Thanksgiving to order and ship them to customers who missed out. This means you’ll need to work a little bit harder to get Walmart’s most coveted Black Friday Deals.
But what Walmart really wants you to do is shop online!
This year they’ve increase inventory dedicated to online sales of its Black Friday specials by 50%. Even better, that merchandise will be available online starting one minute past midnight on Thanksgiving Day and in-stores starting at 6pm.
Here are some of my favorites this year:
14-foot Trampoline Combo (includes mini ball and hoop) for $159 reg $269.
Samsung Chromebook 3 for $119 (Reg. $200)
iPad Mini 2 32GB for $199 (Reg. $269)
40-inch Hisense HDTV for $125 (Reg. $398)
55-inch Philips 4K Smart TV for $298 (Reg. $498)
50-inch Samsung Smart 4KTV for $398 (Reg. $597)

If you do plan to hit the stores, Walmart is still planing to use wristbands for top-selling items and pass out as many wristbands as the number of those items available allowing customers to shop for up to two hours before picking up the hot product. This has helped avoid the stampedes of years ago in stores.
