The last couple of times I was at Walmart .There were out of blank VHS tapes on the shelf and the price sticker on the shelf was gone.I looked online and it said the Memorex tapes are still available and only in the stores.

I think the numnuts in the electronics dept here in the store figure on getting rid of them altogether since they are pro digital idiots and have all current crap only there on the shelves. .Now I have to order online.

Hahaha.I agree......Yes They have carried Memorex 5 packs for $15 bucks the last few years now.They still stock the Magnavox DVD/VHS combo deck there along with dozens of the $30 dollar DVD players as I spot the combo on the shelf there.



I was down there a couple nights ago and notice a open space on the shelves for a 3 pack for $12.97 bucks probably coming in soon.I did not see what brand it will be stocking.I refuse to ask the help there as they look at you if you have two heads like the RatShack clerks did when ask a question about retro analog electronics .I'm surprised that they still carry blank cassettes tapes and the old style cassette recorder by ONN there.

I still hit the thrifts and buy, brand new, unrecorded VHS tapes for 25 or 50 cents. I only buy the good quality brands and leave the cheapies, for someone else. They can usually be found, where the pre-recorded tapes are located. I seldom see Beta tapes.
