Walmart adventures! Sous-vide score

[smokinq13]

So i had time between class and needed some objects from walmart so i went and while i was there i scored this for 13 dollars! Always take the extra time to look at the clearance aisles, i also found a bissell bolt vacuum for 21 bucks, ebay flip for 70-80 bucks!

I can't really find anything on it, or whether its good or not but i figured for 13 bucks, what's it gonna hurt! Anyone seen or have one of these sous-vide "as seen on tv" ones? Also young turkeys on sale 0.68 per lb!

Wondering if this is "in store" only sale? Just checked the Walmart website and looks like the price is $48 for the same device....

Correct! what it is if you even look at the "clearance" sticker, it has $49.00... which simply isn't the case. One of Walmart's reasons for such success is their quick turnover rate. Products fly in and out of the stores so quickly. Individual stores get to decide how much to clearance products and when too. This is how I got it for $13 bucks but I had to price check it with one of those price scanners on the walls to found out the true price. I found a lot of good deals this way but it just takes a little extra time, checking and scanning

Nice! We scored 5 of these a few weeks ago at $13 and shared among my co-workers. I am shocked there are any left anywhere. I cooked up a really nice pork loin with it last week.

smokinq13, thank you for the explanation. Will visit my local Walmart tonight - keep my hope with me! :-)
I have Anova device and use it for about one and a half year already. Pretty happy with it but having a spare one for $13... just sweet.

I have one. Have a chuck roast in it now. Not bad for 13.00. I got the same one.

Do you have a certain website you use to find deals or was it just luck for you?

I check Slickdeals.net almost every day and ran across this deal. Then I used Brickseek.com to see if any stores in my area had any in stock. Here is a direct link to a Brickseek search for that sous vide to see if you have any in your area.

If you load the WalMart app on your phone, you can scan the prices right there on the spot.

My buddy got a $400 Oklahoma Joe offset smoker there on closeout for $112!

112$ is an awesome deal...but OK joe offset is 200$+ smoker not 400$

Good catch. I fat fingered that one. You are right, Should have been $200.

I'd buy it without blinking at $13.

Doing the math: 100 miles drive, $3.50 bridge toll...is it worth it? I can also do a fill up at 3/4 of the price.

There are a few nearby. Heading out in the morning. For $13, it's worth a try.
