Went looking for some frosted cheerios or a zombie Bray Wyatt yesterday at a Walmart in Richmond and found these instead. How does this happen? Surely, some turd returned them. They were in too good of condition to have been in the stock room hiding. Edit: sorry for the sideways pic. Tinypic is a butthole.  |

I'm not sure how someone would return them. They've got to be long gone from Wal Marts system??

If it is indeed returned, they surely didn't tell the cashier "hey, I bought these 8 years ago and now I change my mind. Can I have a gift card?". No way. I'm sure they presented them as items they recently purchased but don't have a reciept for. That's dishonest. Dishonest people are turds. |

I just went to Walmart during my lunch break and was completely shocked at what was on the shelves.
Had an Elite Sami Zayn, but the package was damaged. Elite Tyson Kidd with the variant packaging. 2 Enzo & Cass battlepacks. Like 4 Stone Cold & Vince Battlepacks.

All returns are scanned and an 8 year old item wouldn't be on their system anymore |

You never know what's in a Walmart backroom. I help close down one about 2 years ago and we found a couple of cases of stuff for the Bush vs Gore Election

You're never too young to have a horrible Jakks WWE figure flashback.

I'm sure the employee, trying to be helpful probably used a mattel sku. I've returned an item at walmart before that was bought at another wm store and the item wasn't found. They found a similar item and used that upc. It was a pair of swimming trunks. Same style, different color. It's really not that far fetched. |

I've found old jakks items recently at a few stores too. Each time, there's photocopied elite barcode sticker over the old barcode. There's ways around everything.
