Deal Details
Many Walmarts have the 4, 6, & 8TB My Book External HDs on clearance. The 6tb are around $30 and the 8tb around $50. First discovered in this Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoar...at_walmart.

You can check Brickseek.com for local stock. They tend to be locked up behind the electronics register, and at least some sales associates have been reported as not eager to find them, so look for the orange boxes.

Surely not! EEK! Walmart is renowned for its knowledgeable and helpful staff who will go to the end of the Earth to help customers get a deal.

Hmmm. Brickseek shows limited availability as well as varied pricing at the walmarts close to me. Since brickseek is usually wrong, it may be worth a check.

Looks like someone shucked the 8TB and placed a 250GB inside. So YMMV squared.

Got lucky and grabbed 5 of these in Walmart in Avon, MA. Right where BS said they would be. The store employee was initially fully cooperating after I showed him the page from Walmart.com with this drive listed for $269.99. When he started ringing them at register, his chicken brain went into overdrive, and he tried to ring it any which way not believing the $39.75 price per unit.

Now going through each of them to ensure these were not previously shucked and internald drives replaced as per that reddit article. So far so good.

$100-$150 all around me, one store had the 8TB for $68. One store 7 miles away had the 6TB for $29, too bad I missed out on it.
