I just got off the a conference call with Walmart and I’m so excited to share with you some great things coming very soon for Back to School and Back to College. Back to school is one of the biggest times the year for Walmart. This year they’re making it even better all of us by having a huge cyber Monday back-to-school event. There will be over 400 items on the rollback or special prices that day that will help you save on all your back-to-school needs. They are even including hundreds of household items so basically it’s just one big sale.
There are three big things that I took out of the conference call that I want to tell you about
1. Back to School Cyber Monday Sale August 4th.
2. Savings Catcher is rolling out nationwide the same day August 4th
3. Walmart will be participating in Tax Free Weekends this year ONLINE on Walmart.com and at your local stores.
Back to School season is in full swing and Walmart is working hard at making Back to school and Back to College shopping as convenient as possible for it’s customers. No matter how you like to shop, Walmart has the deals, in stores, online and through their mobile devices.
Starting August 1st, Walmart is kicking off rollback prices on top electronics, dorm décor and school essentials. Walmart has timed this event with the Sales Tax Holiday that some select states participate in to save their customers even more on clothing, supplies and electronics.Walmart has done lots of research and knows the top brands their customers want.

Savings Catchers is going National starting August 4th. Walmart has low prices all the time and they want to help their customers save money all year. The Savings Catcher App is just that, it “catches” savings that you might have missed. If you are price matching items and forgot one, or just didn’t realized an item was cheaper at another store, this automated app will find that savings and Walmart will issue you a egift card for the difference. If that wasn’t enough excitement, Saving Catcher is expanding and will have 100,000 Grocery and General Merchandise items included in this program. How convenient is that!
These are just some ways that Walmart is our Low Price Leader.
