How Do I Return an Item to WalMart from Their Black Friday Sale?

This article describes what to do if you bought something from Walmart's Black Friday sale and need to return it. The article covers returns by mail and in-person returns to a Walmart store. It also describes how to find out if you actually need to make the return because the order was not incomplete but sent in multiple shipments.

If you purchased something from Walmart during their annual Black Friday sale and you need to return it then read on. You will learn what Walmart's return policy is, how to return a Black Friday purchase to Walmart, and how to tell if your purchase even needs to be returned in the first place.

Checking to See If You Need to Make the Return

If you ordered from Walmart's website and found that your order was missing parts or items, don't be too fast to make a return. Sometimes Walmart ships different items from different warehouses, so they will be shipped in different orders and get delivered on different dates. To find out if this is the case, follow these instructions:

  1. Go to Walmart's web page.
  2. Click on the sign in link in the upper right corner.
  3. Sign in to your account.
  4. Click on Account.
  5. Select Track Order.
  6. Enter your email address in the email field.
  7. Enter the order number in the order field.

You will then be able to see if your order has been shipped in more than one shipment. If you see that it was all sent in the same shipment, you will know that a mistake has been made and that you need to initiate a return.

Walmart's Return Policy

Walmart has a simple "no questions asked" return policy. As long as you make the return within 90 days of Black Friday, you should be able to make the return and either get a refund of the original purchase price, taxes, and any fees in the form of payment you used to make the purchase, or an exchange for an equivalent item.
