Retailers that have an online presence generally don't price-match their own websites. As illogical as this seems (especially for big-box stores that have in-store pickup options) the policy is the policy. Except sometimes there is a way around it. That's how John saved $8 at Walmart—by making the store price-match its own website.

Good! Target doesn't do this and it is so frustrating!
ReplyDeleteSears policy is not to do it but the store will match it to get the sale. Store managers would rather the store get the sale then online, especially if the item is shipped to to the store for pick up. Have even been told to to refund an online order and rbill at same price instore for the store to get the sale.
ReplyDeleteOhh and a couple other notes about Sears... if you dont mind the drive you can pay for the order at the Salisbury store and pick it up in Seaford. called a transfer sale. This really helps the salesperson in Salisbury as he gets the commision.. and what you all have to realize is just about all the salespeople at Sears are commision! So always make sure sure your main salesperson gets the commision even if he/she isnt there when you purchase. get their name and card when dealing with them!!
