A Secret Black Friday Walmart site was found showing some products at steeper than normal discount with “Secret In-Store Specials”.  It appears they are trying to start the holiday savings early with this site.  It will be interesting to see if this applies pressure to others to follow suit.

The site makes extensive use of Flash.
