Compaq CQ-50 139WM: Did you find one at Walmart?

Found one in Wilkesboro, NC @ 9AM, which happened to be the last one. Seems OK for a laptop, with a 2ghz single-core processor and 2GB RAM. Integrated graphics chip made me want to look elsewhere, but the price is worth it.

Only a 15-day return policy, which means I’ll be checking blackfriday.info prior to 15 days to see if there are better deals on Black Friday, and if I should return it.

Got one today and have been messing with it all morning. Gereat buy! Works well. Need to get used to Visa. Prefer Xp but this rocks. Love the wireless internet. Gift for grandama! Hope she enjoys it! So far so good.

I got one today but haven’t opened it. There are a MINIMUM of 10 at a store. Two stores are located nearby. One had 50, another 60. I’m not an expert in computers, but the Celeron processor made me stop a little, as did the graphics ship.

Yup, standing in Electronics observing the line, a store employee said

“9 left”—as she held up a hand “You” meaning me the good looking guy in the back of the line “are number 9 and that is it”

327 bucks with tax to Taxifornia

Now…someone say VISTA Operating System? Uck

I bought one of these laptops at my local Walmart. I live in Oklahoma and was told that the store could not sell the laptop for $298.oo because the law in Oklahoma was that the store could not sell this item for under cost. I could buy one in Kansas for $298.oo. I live about 1 hour away from Kansas so I bought one for 428.oo. That was the lowest price I could get one. I am having thoughts of taking this back and looking around for something as good for the price. Any ideas out there on what is comparable to this computer? I feel like they should have had a disclosure on this ad that said otherwise about the $298.00 deal

got one today arrived at walmart in east stroudsburg,pa at 6:30am about 20 people ahead of me on line the guy who was first in line said he got there at 1am when i finally got to the cashier to pay for mine their was about 150 people in line behind me they only had 81 computers i guess some people went home disappointed i also pick up the 46″ sanyo lcd tv for 798.00 and the playstation 3 with 100.00 gift card for 399.00

Walmart was carrying a minimum quanity of ten….some stores had more. The store I went to this AM had about fifteen. I waited, first in line for fourty five minutes. By eight thirty the were gone. But they had at least ten…not ONLY ten.

I purchased 2 this morning at our local Walmart – arrived at 6:50 a.m. and was out of there by 8:15 a.m. – they had so many they were letting everyone purchase 2 if they wanted to. If you wanted more than 2 you had to get back in line.

We sold one laptop at 8am,second and third by 3pm. I left
at 5pm, had 7 left. For a Saturday the store was empty
of customers.Must be the economy.

I purchased 1 today a 8:45am, there were still a handful left. I am not very tech savy. I am trying to research and read reviews, Any tips? I need it for Internet and plan to install MS word

I saw the ad for this laptop on Thursday. I checked my local store and they said it would be on sale at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday. I got in early and was able to get one. I am impressed with it so far! It has exceeded my expectations. I look forward to checking out all that it can do.

Yes! I did get on at Wal-mart. I decided to get up at 5 in the morning,, I get there at about 5:30 am. The store didn’t open till 7. I thought that I wait in my car till 7. To my amazment, there was a lineand people were there since 2 am. Is this laptop really that much of a great deal? I had called a few stores to see if they had any info as to how many of these laptops they had….I got lucky when I called the third store…it slipped that they had 60!

I was one of the lucky ones, number 48! I waited 5 hours . Yes it was worth the wait.

simple laptop, but it gets the job done……hooray for me!

Yep. Got one Saturday at the Alcoa Walmart in TN. No lines. No waiting. Hubby wanted one for Christmas. What a deal. Wish it had XP, I’m a bit skeptical of VISTA. We’ll see…

THE DEAL OF A LIFETIME!
I live across the street from a Walmart so at about 7:45 Saturday morning I decided to take a little walk. Once in the store I noticed a line with about 40 people. I asked myself, self, if only 10 to a store why do I see 40 + people waiting? So, I decided to ask a sales associate who told me if I joined the line and was lucky enough to get a ticket, (which she was handing out) I would get one. I did get a ticket as did about 10 others behind me. And when I left she had about 20 to 30 tickets in her hand.
This laptop is ideal for surfing, checking e-mails, word processing. I recommend it highly!

THE DEAL OF A LIFETIME! Part 2

forgot to mention where i found this super deal.

Royal Palm Beach, Florida

I got one for my Mom age 82 and she is loving it!! Numbers were handed out, an employee was with us to answer any questions, in particular ones that came later and told to go to the back of the line, and had copies of the products on sale. It went so well it didn’t seem like 2 hrs waiting. Easy breezy and great computer so far. GREAT DEAL!

Very nice basic laptop. Good quailty for the price. The store had 65. I was about 25th in line. Got it for my wife.

I went to the Brand New S Walmart in Broussard, LA at about 7:00am on 11/08/08. I went to buy the PS3 #99 and you got a $100 WM gift card. I ended up buying the Laptop as well for my son and I to share (like that will happen). Anyway my WM had 18. The sale started at 8:00 and by 7:30 they all were spoken for. I also bought the 2gb mps/walkman. I hope it works with all the cool ipod docking things with out paying the Ipod price.
Thanks for letting me ramble

I saw the ad for it on the walmart website the day before the sale. I decided to get to the store an hour early and prayed the entire way there that the line wouldn’t be out the door. I went to the Super Walmart in Middletown, Ohio which is open 24hrs. Luckily I was number 13 in line and they had 37 computers. The online ad did not say ” 1 per customer” so I was able to get two of them. They are for my 13 and 17 year old daughters for Christmas. I did a little research of my own the night before just to make sure it was worth my time and money to go. I thought it was a great deal and the added plus was that I won’t get trampled on Black Friday looking for the same gift at that price and I won’t have to stand out in the cold at 1 A.M. waiting in line either.

I got one a Walmart – woke my sister up to wait in line with me and it came up to $284 (with her discount card for Walmart – extra hookup)… can’t beat it and worth the trouble!
