Lite On DVD+R/+RW for $43..ymmv

[Peyton]

I went to Wal-Mart tonight for some things and was checking on on CD-Rs and saw A new item they had,the Lite On drive mentioned above.BUT it was priced wrong,only $48! I asked if was the correct price and they scanned it and it wouldnt scan,but the sticker on the box said $48.So the Manager said charge him $48 if he wants it,and went and got a regular DVD drive and told her to just ring up this one and it rang up $43.
It was the Wal-Mart at Valley View Mall in Roanoke VA.There were a few left.

Thanks for sharing. A single mispriced item is not a Hot Deal.

here's guessing that the $48 sticker was put on by some joe smuck playing a joke or trying to get it cheaper.

I think Wal Mart sells a Lite-On DVD ROM for about that.

I would have bought up all of em at walmart if it was that price.

Wow if this error is at any other locations im on it like stink on shyte.

Can anyone else confirm

 

[puppyfriend]

There's a similar thread on ChubbyWallet but the price was $70 also at WallyWorld. Other than the OP, I don't think that anyone else was able to confirm that price. Most people said it was $154 at their Walmart.

Went to Wal-mart- they do have a Lite-On 16X DVD ROM for $48.43. Obviously, this was mistakenly stickered with that price.

HUGE YMMV, but if you are going there anyway, may as well look

This really belongs in Brag & Moan, not a Hot Deal.

If you are not lucky like me to find one, you can get it from Dell Home for $118.76 shipped for retail kit ( $131.95-10% off + free shipping ).Dell part # A0152017 but for about $20 more you can get dual drive from Newegg.
