Walmart Savings Catcher | Easy Way to Price Match

By:

Walmart Savings Catcher

There is a new way to match prices to other stores at Walmart right now. This new savings tool from Walmart is called Savings Catcher. The only drawback is you have to wait to get your savings back instead of instant gratification at the register and it is in the form of a Walmart gift card.

Here’s How It Works: 

  • Shop at Walmart.
  • Enter your receipt number here or scan the barcode by downloading the Walmart App.
  • The app automatically scans your receipt to “catch” any savings from printed and online versions of competitor’s weekly ads. The ads must be valid at the time you made your purchase.
  • If Savings Catcher finds an advertised price that is lower than what you paid for the exact item at Walmart, you will get back the difference on a Walmart Rewards eGift Card.

FAQ

Is there a minimum purchase required?
No. There is no minimum purchase requirement. Simply submit your receipt to get started.
How many receipts can I submit?
You can submit up to 7 receipts per week to Savings Catcher.
Is Savings Catcher available on my smartphone?
Yes. You can access Savings Catcher by downloading the Walmart app or by going to www.walmart.com/savingscatcher on your smartphone.
What types of promotions does Savings Catcher include?
Savings Catcher compares eligible items on your receipt to items found in the print and digital weekly ads of top retailers in your area. The ads must be valid at the time you made your Walmart purchase and include a specific item price.
What types of promotions does Savings Catcher not include?
Savings Catcher does not compare the following types of offers:

  • Items that require a separate purchase to get the advertised price (example: “Buy oatmeal to get cereal for $1.”)
  • Items with no actual price that require a purchase to get a free product (example: “Buy both oatmeal & cereal to get milk for free.”)
  • Items that require a purchase to get a gift card (example: “Buy a 12 pack of paper towels to get a $5 gift card.”)
  • Buy one get one free (BOGO) deals where no item price is listed (example: Peter Pan Peanut Butter, buy one, get one free. Save up to $2.50.”)
  • Going out of business or closeout prices.
  • Percentage off (example: “All mascara, 40% off.)
Does Savings Catcher apply to my online purchases?
No. Savings Catcher applies to your in-store purchases only.
Do my savings accumulate?
That’s entirely up to you. You have the option to accumulate your Rewards Dollars and build your balance in Savings Catcher or transfer it onto a Walmart Rewards eGift Card whenever and as often as you choose. If you haven’t redeemed your Rewards Dollars at the end of the calendar year, Walmart will automatically transfer them onto a Walmart Rewards eGift Card and notify you.
What happens if I use coupons?
No problem, you can still use Savings Catcher. If you use a coupon, Savings Catcher will compare the original Walmart price of the item, before the coupon was applied, to other stores’ advertised prices for the same item. For example: You bought cookies at Walmart. The shelf price was $3 and you used a coupon for $0.25, so you paid $2.75. If Savings Catcher finds that a competitor advertised those same cookies for $2.00, Savings Catcher will still credit you $1.00, even though you paid only $2.75 at Walmart.

Walmart doesn’t double coupons but they will price match the exact same item. Just take your ad with you and let them know at checkout the competitor’s ad price. (Some Walmart’s showcase competitor ads at the front of the store and already have it programmed into their system.)

Prices could vary by region. I also highly suggesting printing out the Walmart coupon policy and keeping it handy.

  1. I TRY TO REDEEM MY CREDITS, THEY SAY WIL GET AN EMAIL. Never got, what should I do?
    PLEASE MY NEW EMAIL IT’S tcwmartyn@gmail.com in case someone will contact me.
    Thanks

  2. I can not find if I got any credit for saving catchers. How do I find out?

  3. Does this take the place of price matching altogether? Do you trust that it will catch everything?

    • Nope, you can still do “regular” price matching and you probably want to do regular price matching if you do it quite a bit as the app limits you to $600 a year. The Savings Catcher is great to catch anything you missed and/or for lazy couponers like me! :) HTH! :)

  4. Will this app work with Kroger sales that are often buy 5 and get $5 off at the register?
