Walmart has updated their Price Matching Policy online!
It is now more specific and helpful, breaking down what exactly they will price match. Some new additions include:

1. We do not require customers to have the ad with them to honor a competitor’s ad.
2. Fresh produce and meat items when the price is offered in the same unit type (lb. for lb.; each for each)

The policy is copied below, To print the official policy, I suggest printing directly from Walmart.com and keeping it with you in your binder!

Our Ad Match Guarantee We’re committed to providing low prices every day. On everything. So if you find a lower advertised price on an identical product, tell us and we’ll match it. Right at the register. We gladly match the price in the following types of ads:* Buy one, get one free ads with a specified price Example: Buy one for $2.49, get one free (BOGO) Competitors’ ads that feature a specific item for a specified price at a specific retailer Example: $2.99 Preferred shopping card advertised prices for specific item that are in a printed ad and require a competitor’s shopping card for the discount to apply This means that they will match sale prices, but not prices “after Rewards” (e.g. Extra Bucks, Register Rewards, Up+ Rewards) For fresh produce and meat items when the price is offered in the same unit type (lb. for lb.; each for each) *The following are guidelines and limitations: We will match any local competitor’s advertised price.

You may only price match with current sales. NOTE: I would highly suggest you DO have ad with you...few around our Puget sound area will take your word for the price, lol!! Items purchased must be identical to the ad (size, quantity, brand, flavor, color, etc.) We DO NOT match the price in the following types of competitor ads: Items that require a separate purchase to get the ad price example: “Buy [item A] to get [item B] for $C” Items with no actual price that require a purchase to get free product example: “Buy both [items A & B] to get [item C] for free” Items that require a purchase to get a competitors’ gift card example: “Buy [item A] to get a $B gift card Buy one, get one free (BOGO) ads with no actual
