Yeah, it's a Walmart clearance but what can you do? Sony 505 ebook reader for $189. Good if you can find it.

"Wally B&M YMMV GL"

I am going to attempt to translate

"Wally" = WalMart

"B&M" = I have no idea

"YMMV" = your mileage may vary

"GL" = Good luck

Did I get any of that right?

Dude!! All but one. B&M means brick and mortar, as in a store and not online. I'm using deal speak.

checked two Walmarts and Vegas and they had no idea what I was talking about. Which department of the store had the 505?

I am amazed that WalMart sells any at all since even the sales clerks in the one store in Vegas (Serene store) that has them in stock didn't know what I was talking about. There were about ten silver 505's on the bottom shelf of a locked cabinet. Although marked clearance, the price was $229. I had the clerk do a price check and that price was confirmed. With tax it was $245, so it's just a little cheaper than online. More interesting, I told him about the $189 mentioned above and he told me that the Store doesn't price match other Walmarts, only competitors!!
