I thought you could PM during checkout if you have the competitors ad with you?I wanted to Pricematch something at BestBuy. Found out that customer service was closed and won't open till noon.
Unless they have different rules during BF.

I thought so too. But the cashier said that customer service won't be opening untill 12. maybe he was f****** with me or everyone who wanted to PM for that matter. and I wanted to return/rebuy anyway so I didn't bother wasting my time.

My best price matching story is from about 4-5 years ago. This was when Toys r us was still PM'ing. My kids were all little, so TRU was pretty much it for me. I got all the ads, made my list, cross referenced the ads with the TRU prices vs. Kaybee, WM, etc.
I had Barbies, GI Joes, Barbie clothing, action heros, wrestlers, video games- seriously, my list was 2 pages long and my cart was overflowing. I waited in line, and when I got up there with my binder, the guy looked like he was going to cry. Every single item I had was going to be pricematched. He went with the first couple of items, then said "Tell you what. You hand me the item, and tell me how much". I did have some questionable items in there- for instance, Barbie clothes that weren't exactly pictured in the ad, GI Joes that I wasn't sure about...but as I tried to explain each one, he said "I told you. Just tell me how much you are going to pay". So I did.![]()
Now it was awhile ago, but I still have that receipt someplace. The TRU total was something like 697.00. I spent a little under 200.00. I always buy too much for the kids, but this year was over the top. I saved alot of it until the next year, and had birthdays, relatives birthdays, and friends birthdays covered for the entire year.
I was hoping for the same luck the next year, but I got some anal little beeyotch- I rightfully argued with her about some of the stuff she wasn't allowing, and eventually she cried and had her manager take over- lol.
I am a bad person. I make Toys R Us cashiers cry on BF.

A shopper after my own heart!!! Sounds like me!!!!
Last year hubby and I were in line, he turned to me and "honey, I have bail money for you, should you need it!" I shot him a look.... then the hubby in front of us busted out laughing...LOL I was embarrassed at first, but then thought ...THAT'S RIGHT:smirk: ...I am such a beeyotch...on BF...

Plus, I scored 3 of the Amex Wishlist certificates for TRU, so my deals were even better. ($ off + Wishlist cert = almost free)
what is an Amex wishlist certificate and how does one acquire one? CHEAP is the name of the game more than ever this year!

ok guys, I am new to this whole BF, I am trying to be brave and try it this year. So how would this BF price match work? Do you shop for stuff day before and the go to the different (same) store on BF and ask to price match on that item?
No. You buy what you want at Walmart- stuff that you see advertised at other stores for a cheaper price. For example- you see a Bratz doll advertised at KB Toys for cheaper than Walmart has it. You bring the doll and the ad from KB to the register, and they give you the KB price. You can do that with anything that Walmart has- that another place has cheaper.

I have never PM'ed before. Is it very time consuming?
A little bit but when you factor not having to drive to the other store because you PMed it actually saves a TON of time
