My experience with the Walmarts around here (Cleveland, OH) is that these
"Clearance" shelves are not permanent, just showing up when they have alot
of stuff to get rid of.

They are also not always in the same place, but recently have generally been
between the toys and the garden center.  It does, of course, vary between
stores.

Generally what each store has on the clearance shelves varies as well.
Makes it hard make large purchases  ;(  I much prefer the Target sales!  :)

I guess it's possible that this toy clearance shelf isn't a permanent • thing,
or it moves around the store a lot.

I'm guessing Walmart's clearance procedures are store dependent, or possibly buyer dependent (for a geographic area). I've been shopping at as many as possible between Harrisburg, PA and the Mid Hudson Valley of NY. Each store seems to be in its own (...) (23 years ago, 10-Sep-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)
