‘They’re not allowing people to buy it’: Walmart shopper finds ‘hidden’ clearance section. Then a worker steps in
A Walmart shopper was thrilled after discovering her local store discounted items by as much as 90 percent.
In a viral video with over 240,000 views as of this writing, TikToker Queen Tay (@Queentayshops) shared the deals she saw during her trip to the store.
She was proud of the shopping haul she walked away with.

Queen Tay made her way through Walmart while pushing a trolley and pointing out the discounted prices on popular items.
"Oh my God," she said to viewers. "Do you see what I see?"
The shopper noted that the store had Native body wash and deodorant on sale.
"They didn't mark it 90, but it is two dollars," she said.
Next, she pointed out discounted household items.
"This is one dollar," she said while holding up a cute Christmas-themed stuffed animal.
The TikToker dedicates her profile to sharing discount shopping tips.
She visited multiple Walmart locations to find the best discounts.
In one video, the woman visited seven different stores to find out how much "hidden clearance" she could find.
Is Walmart refusing to sell discounted merch?
However, she also noticed something problematic at the store.
The woman alleges workers were putting many of the discounted items in the back of the store and refusing to sell them.
"Just told me that they put everything in the back, and they're not allowing people to buy it," she reported from an aisle in the store.
She dedicated another video to calling out this practice.
