I bought a pair and used once because I thought I need a bench. Then I bought a bench and used once.

Wondering this same thing, if you order for in store pickup at the store with the lower price, would they adjust the price? Anyone done this yet??
I'd like to know too.
Good catch OP

This is the sexy dumbbell I have ever seen in my life.
I think hex bells look better, simplicity of form and function. Just buy the ones you actually need.

you can buy $600 dumbbells and still look like you don't even lift weights lmao might as well join a gym

thats what people dont realize that muscles are huge part genetic and though you can build upon what nature give you, it will very limited if genetics are not on your side, lots of dudes who go to the gym and look like they don't lift weights

i for one only want this dumbbell for convenience as is not my goal to be muscular, mostly for health reasons and stay in shape, couldn't care less about big muscles as I know I dont have the body type, i know I've tried many times before going to the gym, lifting weight as heavy as i could and saw little results from it

thats the downside of having a small frame, thats what people dont realize, if you have a small bones, pretty much youre farked in the muscle game as bones are fused with muscles and someone with bigger bones will have bigger muscle by default without doing a god damn thing

youll be bigger than your original state yeah, but still small compared to other dudes

couldn't care less as I'm 6 feet and 170lbs, about 15% body fat, and thats after years of lifting weights, i used to be 150lbs, i will never be 200lbs unless fat and thats a fact
The short have a mechanical advantage, muscle should show up easier on the short limbed.

But yes genetics has something to do with everything.

I was gonna drive there from Ontario the other day. I'm glad I didn't go. It's been showing 3-4 for the last few days. I feel like the Walmart workers kept it to themselves 🤔

Checked at my store tonight as I was there for something else anyway. They had the dumbbells, stand, and bench in stock. Strangely though only the bench and stand were marked down to $59. The dumbbells were at $138. I even took the box over to a store scanner and double checked. Guess I'll just keep checking the BS link to see when they mark down the dumbbells.

Brickseek said my local Walmart had 3-4 in stock. I called first thing in the morning ~6:15 am, and a lady answered. I asked to confirm if they could confirm if they had any inventory of an item. Without even hearing what the item was, lady rudely said 'I can't help you. You need the UPC code'. I said, 'I have the UPC code.' She rudely said, 'Fine. What is it?'. I read it to her and she struggled for several minutes to enter it in. Making comments out loud like 'Why is it doing this!?' She finally says 'There are 4 in-stock'. I think, great. It's like 6:30 am and there are 4. I immediately drive over and ask an older gentleman where they would be (in the sporting goods area). He says, 'I don't know. I can't help you'. Took us to a station with a button you press if you need help. Nobody responds for about 15 minutes. Finally, a guy shows up and says Bowflex items go here (and he shows us where). He says there aren't any left. After wasting about an hour, ended up with nothing.

Walmart is such a shit show. Never going again. No wonder Amazon is destroying all brick & motar. What a joke.
Sounds like this was your first rodeo.

I haven't really been to a store to buy anything in years. I buy everything online now including toiletries, etc. It is much worse than I remember.

ended up returning them, such a shame, i wanted to keep but they smell pretty bad, they have this strong chemical smell, maybe it doesn't bother some people but I'm prone to respiratory allergies and I could notice the effect instantly, it has to be rubber or whatever they use to pain the whole thing, the varnish or something
That's the smell of gains son

Thank you, seriously, I was looking for this on the 1st page. The OP has a link to a Walmart store locator, like people don't know where their local Walmart is Roll

Their awful staff is exactly why I dont shop there. Its like shopping at a government office. That and Id rather pay a dollar more per item than wait 20 minutes in line to pay. If they wanted my money, they shouldnt make it so hard to pay them. That said, deals like this always have me agonizing over whether I should go deal with their crap employees and customers straight out of the movie Idiocracy.
