IN recent weeks, legions of consumers have started their holiday shopping sprees. And some of them were not happy about the price tags they saw on Walmart's website for sought-after gifts. "Are you kidding me, @Walmart?," one Twitter user asked, posting what appeared to be a screengrab of Walmart's website. The image showed a hot-selling toy called Hatchimals priced at US$329.97, far higher than the US$48.88 Walmart had advertised.
Another user posted an image of a listing for the Nintendo NES Classic Edition, an old-school-style gaming console that has been flying off store shelves. Its price was US$496.99, even though it was selling elsewhere for around US$59.99. "Really @Walmart? I've got two words for ya in regards to this price. . . #donewithyall," the user wrote.
