Walmart online has Lew's black classic baitcaster combo for $39.99. It's $69.99 in the store because I looked at it before ordering. I just got the 2 I ordered today with free shipping. Came in large heavy duty cardboard tube.

I may have overlooked, but I couldn't find gear ratio or rod action.
If it is sold and shipped by Walmart, the store is supposed to match the online price. If it is a third party seller, they won't.

They won't, they say the online and storefronts are different, they may allow you to order online and pickup at the store though.

Best I can tell, it's 3rd party.
Why not just have it shipped. I got free shipping and that's all I ordered.
6.4/1 ratio. Medium action

Sure, if they offer it, some items don't offer free shipping unless they are over a certain amount. I pass a WM on the way to and from work so I just pick up when they are available at that location.

According to my wife (she works there), it is company policy to match the online(Walmart.com) price IF....it is sold and shipped by WM, and is in stock online.
They won't match 3rd party prices.

I wish they would tell the ones here, twice I have been told to order online, even when I had the product in hand. One was a simple pyrex measuring cup, that was on sale for a couple bucks but showed over $10 at the store. I had ordered one to pickup at the store so I could mix my Ed's Red in small batches and decided to get another to use with my fiber powder but they had me order it online.
I just looked up the same cup, my VPN tells sites I am in CA or WA most times and it shows it can be shipped in the CA ad, but not in the KY ad, can pick up in KY but not in CA. The higher price is 3rd party, the cheaper price is by WM.

That's weird
I haven't found when they didn't offer it. I bought 4 of the gun cleaning kits for $7.00 each. Had 3 different Walmart delivery people coming to my house on the same day. 1 brought 2 kits and the other 2 delivered 1 each.
Oh, and I only bought 2 rod combos that were delivered yesterday and had another delivery of 2 today. Guess it was buy1get 1.

That's their policy, is even spelled out on their website. My experience has been that most WM employees are not familiar with the policy and jumping through the hoops to get to management, and then getting them to actually do the override, is extremely frustrating.
