danderson101 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 For some items (example- 1 gig sd memory card for $3 after rebates at CC) the easiest thing to do is to go ahead and buy the item now, then return it on bf and get the lower price. The folks at the CC I went to said this was ok. In addition, I had no problem doing this last year at compusa for an external hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbasketcr8r Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Possible, but I like a line at 4PM a whole lot better than 4AM.I doubt that you will be able to get the BF price at 4pm. You would only be able to get it during the BF hours- if you are talking about doorbusters with limited hours..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blessedmamax7 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I'm going to do this for Kohl's cuz I refuse to stand out in the cold...LOL! I even called and asked the manager. She said yes I could buy things on Wednesday, return them on Friday during the sale hours and rebuy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to know you have it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryka Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 you have to be careful too because some items that sell on BF have a different UPC code then the regular items they sell. Once those are gone they will not sell the regular items at the sale price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurnee Al Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Yep, most of the doorbusters either have different UPC codes or aren't even put out until BF. Therefore, there's nothing to PM. It might work for the OP's SD card, but I doubt it would work for anything of great significance. Also, have fun waiting in line trying to do this on BF -- they're probably not going to have too many employees available for returns that day.

I've done this at Kohl's for non-Black-Friday deals, and let me tell you what a PITA it is!!! Kohl's doesn't have an easy way of doing price adjustments (Mervyn's, for example, just scans the bar, looks it up and does an adjustment). For some reason, Kohl's has to do an individual return on each item. I've had a 6 item price adjustment take fifteen minutes at Kohl's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
