This clearance was started over 15 days ago. You snooze you lose. Deals at 50% off firearms don't last more than a few days. At least in Gods country where more shooters than Libs frequent the Wally's in my neck of the woods.
The Mini 14's lasted 1 day around here. (Sad to say I didn't get in on any).
And, by day 3, only a few Vanguards were left within an 80 mile radius of where I live with 1/2 dozen stores around.
Glad I was able to snag 6 of them.

There are still scopes and binos and leathermans to be had!!!!! No VX-2 in my area at all. Only few Acadia's are way above $49. The one bino priced right withing decent distance from me was unlocatable. Emptied out the counter storage and not to be found. Checked customer service just to get another reading and confirmed 1 is showing in stock. Asked where it might be? Asst mgr type, "Probably walked off" was the wink & nod. I said "But it's locked up." "People have keys". So distrust from the inside.

I sat on this info for over a week and a half. Already got a Vanguard in 30-06, I said. Got a Win model 70 in 270, I said. No need for a 243, I said. Used my "extra" scope on my last project, I reminded myself.
Today I own a new 243 Vanguard Sporter Deluxe...

I had no real need for the 308 syn I picked up either, but having an extra scope and dies/bullets/brass laying around was too much so I caved. If the deluxes drop again I will have one in 243 to give to one of my sons one day.

Checked brickseek and saw where a Walmart close to me showed that they had a $249 Vanguard 243 left. It showed low stock, which typically means one. Went there this morning, and finally found the sporting goods manager, who said he thought there was one. Their computer was supposedly down, and he did call a store manager who confirmed that it was, and told me to leave my number and they'd call when the computer came back up. The sporting goods guy then said he would go check inventory and let me know for sure. He comes back and says it's not there, must have sold it last night. Brickseek still shows it. I'm thinking he's hiding it. Didn't really need it, but I can sell it later so was going to buy it anyway.
No ammo on clearance, and haven't seen any locally, which makes me believe there wasn't much of a local clearance. Didn't see anything else on clearance either. One store fairly close also showed a Vanguard 270 in stock, but when I called they said they didn't have any left. Is brickseek wrong, or are they hiding it.
I already know what slumlord's gonna say.....lol.

Put the zip code for the store you were at and the SKU or UPC in and see what it shows as "In stock" https://www.dexterclearance.com/walmart-local-stock(When I check BrickSeek It's showing "Out Of Stock" at all 12 Walmart locations within 50- 75 miles of me but the real kicker is every store is now showing the price as $564...)

I have found brickseek and dexter to show the same thing. Dexter was also showing the guns as being there.

Scored today..........Happy Birthday to me. Had to drive 90 miles to get this, (good thing the F150 got 19 MPG on the trip, so I only spent around $30 in fuel for the round trip of 180 miles).................... ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/evK99zt.jpg) Made it worth it, cause I was driving 45 miles in that 90 mile direction to stop and get this anyhow.................... $50 in the Craigslist classifieds at the next town over. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/0e9m9m4.jpg) Clearance is looking pretty scant in my neck of the woods. I'm super happy to have gotten the last $59 trap thrower within 250 miles of me. So far, every Walmart worker has been very good to work with as well.

went to my local walmart today after some ammo. They had exactly what Brickseek showed. I ended up with 5 boxes of federal blue box 308, 3 boxes of 243 @ $11.97 per box, 2 boxes of Rem 270 corelokt @ $13.74, and 3 550 rd boxes of federal 22 rimfire @ $19.94 each. With the rebate on the federal ammo it was too good of a deal to pass up. Unfortunately there are no weatherbys, leupolds, nikons, beeman air rifles, or champion traps within 100 miles any more.

Bunch of Weatherbys still around me. WalFart employees are hiding the Rugers.

I couldn't take it NO more! Seeing the Federal rebates for Power-Shok and the identical Non-Typical lines, I dug around the other day just seeing some out of area stores with the ones I am looking for. However, got on here tonight to strategize my buying spree, as I am headed out on the road tomorrow, and I see even my local Walmart has the blueboxes marked down and well-stocked. No free ammo here BUT stay away until after about 9am tomorrow. LOL $11.97-5.00=cool Power-Shok 30-30 150s are like $4.97 after rebate so buy those. https://brickseek.com/walmart-inventory-checker?sku=20746399Power-Shok 270 130 https://brickseek.com/walmart-inventory-checker?sku=20746397Power-Shok 308 150 https://brickseek.com/walmart-inventory-checker?sku=20691913Power-Shok 243 100 https://brickseek.com/walmart-inventory-checker?sku=17757344
