In 2019 Walmart was urging customers to download their new app on signs inside the store. I told my wife: "I wish Walmart hired me for marketing, I bet I can get millions of people to download the Walmart app."
I started using the app and making Instagram videos about "hidden clearance". It was a term I made up to explain clearance items that showed a lower price on the Walmart app. Fast Company credited me for coining the term here.
I remember one of my early videos hit 30 likes and I was beyond excited.
Over the years, I've built an entire social media presence under the name Super Unsexy and around the concept of hidden clearance. I've recorded videos visiting 20 Walmart locations over the course of days. (then spent a week editing the video lol)
I made videos for 5+ years with the motivation to help every-day people save money. That was my reward. I didn't post a single affiliate link in that time. I worked for free.
With an eye on the future, I launched Deal Soldier in 2024 with my wife Kathleen. As an avid follower of AI technology I see an opportunity to build something special that can help many people save money.
The viral 2019 video that started it all.
Walmart hidden clearance is an in-store price markdown that is loaded into Walmart's register system but does not appear on the shelf tag, the Walmart website, or the app.
Not on the shelf tag.
Not on the website or the app.
The real price only shows up when an item is scanned in store, or when a yellow clearance sticker is physically on the product.
I was in the clearance aisle in front of a stack of $80 heated blankets. The yellow tag said $79.99 originally, marked down to $35. I scanned one with the Walmart app just to read the description, and the in-store price came up as $15.
For years, this was the best kept secret among professional bargain hunters. Deal Soldier built the tools to expose it.
Below is just a few examples of clearance finds. We have 20,000+ pictures all posted by members inside Deal Soldier. If you like clearance, jump in the chat room and hang out with us.
I never let a deal ruin my day. If I'm looking for something and can't find it in the store, I brush it off and move on to the next one. There are so many deals out there. It's a waste of energy to worry about spilt milk. Let's get the next one.

Yes. You are buying an item at the price the store has set in its own system. Walmart sets the price, the register rings it up, you pay it.
If a sticker says one thing and the register rings up lower, the lower price is what you pay. That is normal retail.
Deal Soldier members have been doing this for years across thousands of stores. The proof is on this page.
I've talked with and shaken many employees' hands over the years. They love when you buy clearance. They usually say "buy them all." There is always new inventory coming in and they just want the shelves cleared.
There's a misconception that employees don't want you to find incredible deals. It couldn't be further from the truth. These items were marked on clearance for a reason.
| Store | Sticker | Penny deals | Best categories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Walmart | Yellow | Rare ($0.03 common) | Tools, electronics, toys |
| Home Depot | Orange / yellow | Common | Tools, garden, paint |
| Dollar General | Pink / yellow | Most common | Toys, seasonal, beauty |
I enjoy the atmosphere of Walmart the most, but every store has its moments in the clearance world. Home Depot might have the hottest clearance one week and Walmart the next. If you're a reseller, you never discriminate. You focus on the best opportunity at any given time.
