Grabbed a Lone Ranger train for $49 but box is dented. Had some castle sets marked down except dragon mtn or the castle (the only two i would buy multiples of for investment). Was tempted by the silver mine at 50% off but don't think it's worth it at that price even... Lame parts and colors.

They did have a ton of $11 flying clubs... Thinking about buying them up at that price especially since it's a wm exclusive... Thoughts?
I have mixed feelings about new releases: I can't wait to see and get the new sets... but I can't figure out where I'm gonna put them or store them.

Almost grabbed the Hive Crawler myself. I turned it away and the Quinjet for the Jek-14.

Stopped in the Walmart in the town where I work. Nothing on clearance for City, SW, or Super Heroes. They did have the Galaxy Squad sets and one Lone Ranger set marked down.

Galactic Titan $49
Hive Crawler $35
Bug Obliterator $49
Vermin Vaporizer $35
Colby City Showdown $35

50% off for the Galactic Titan, but I had already grabbed one from Yo-Yo when they were $56. The rest are of no interest. Hoping to find a Black Zero Escape to get Superman, Zod and Lois Lane.

Edit: Castle Gatehouse Raid for $21 also.

I found most of the sets listed in this topic on clearance plus 70400 Forest ambush for $11. All the clearance sets that I found were not in the LEGO aisle but on another shelf for clearance toys.

Went to another to get:

$21 Creator Tree house
$35 Colby city
$40 SW Rancor Pit

Not sure if my Walmart will make another set of adjustments later on, time will tell.

I picked Eglor's Bike for $17 and Chi Eris for $11. I'll hang onto them and return them if a better deal comes along.
Saw the Rancor, Black Zero Escape, Forest Ambush and various Creator sets on clearance.
Nothing earthshaking.
Most of my Walmarts have radically reduced LEGO space over the past 12 months. I know LEGO is supposed to be doing great overall, but they sell very slowly around here, at Walmarts anyway. Thanks to which I have gotten lots of awesome clearance sales the past few years but they finally wised up and chopped inventory. Kmart same story but even moreso.

Went to quite a few Walmarts. I found most of the above mentioned sets. Most were 30% off and a few from 33-50% off. I ended up getting the City cargo heliplane for $25, Rancor pit for $40, LR Commanche camp for $11, GS crater creeper for $11 and a small Hero factory. So that's my mediocre Walmart deals for 2014. I hope some of the prices drop eventually, but I'm not counting on it. This was in Colorado.
Could not find any Lone Ranger trains. As soon as they went on clearance they disappeared faster than the actual movie did from the theaters. No Galaxy Squad titan either. I saw a couple of Jabba's barge and gunships for $79 and a few other Star Wars sets also.
I did see a bunch of Silver mines, hero factory, and Galaxy Squad stuff. I had already bought the larger Galaxy Squad sets for 50% off, but if anyone is on the fence I would recommend them. The kids love them and the playability is really good. The Hive Crawler is a fun build and the movement is very nice.

the Walmart clearance sale in Canada is terrible. :( If anyone would be so kind as to consider picking up a Galactic Titan for me and shipping it, please send me a message. I can do Paypal. Thanks!

Approximately 10-15 sets on sale at the Framingham MA store. I picked up 31006 Highway Speeder ($17), 60025 Grand Prix Truck ($21) and 31010 Treehouse ($21) for my son. Nothing was more than about 30% off from what I could see.

One of my local Walmarts had Series 10 Minifigures for $1 each. I went ahead and grabbed them all without feeling them. After opening them, it became clear they had been gone through, but there were still a few good ones in there.

1x Grandpa
1x Decorator
1x Revolutionary Soldier
1x Skydiver
2x Woman Warrior
2x Roman Commander
2x Sad Clown
3x Baseball Fielder
4x Motorcycle Mechanic

For $17, not a bad haul.

Checked 3 Walmarts around Buffalo/Niagara Falls NY. Found Galaxy Squad, Castles & Chima sets on clearance at all 3. One WM had Lone Ranger sets on clearance as well (the other 2 didn't have any LR sets) I picked up the Lone Ranger train set for $49 (the last one)
No Star Wars, City, Super-heroes or TMNT on clearance.

Just scored a Black Gate for $40! Funny thing was this location did NOT have these in stock when people first started reporting the mark downs... (They also had some of the new Spring releases on the shelves!)

Was at a local Walmart and they had three of those at $40 too. Same situation as yours, but they are long gone now. I got the Sail Barge for $79 and the Creator House for $17.

Which spring releases specifically did your Walmart have out already?

I posted it elsewhere in availability, but Joker Steamroller, The Spidey Juniors set, and all the SW microfighters.
