I want to see cases where, in Canada, price adjustments have been refused and why.
Ps. and we call our version, boxing day?! WTF?? |
Well, that's something I could have done without seeing today. It's atrocious how America creates such feral, zombie-like behaviour in it's people. It's a country built and motivated by consumerism.
I actually went out on Black Friday to see if Future Shop and Best Buy would price match(and beat) WalMart's price on GTA 5. WalMart had it on for $39 and they each had them on for $39.99 or something. Less than a dollar difference, but with their price beat policy that would take it down to like $35 or something. Still, only a $4 for a lot of effort.
I started across town at Future Shop. After having to find the game, which was more difficult than it should have been considering it's one of the top game out there right now. I get up to the cash and the cashier with the game and WalMart's physical flyer and she says that she can't price match because it says "while supplies last". In my head I'm thinking, "BUULLLLLSHIT! All sale are while supplies last, dummy!" But rather than argue it with her, I just leave. It would have been a greater waste of my time and gas money if Toys R Us wasn't in the same area and I hadn't picked up some BH figures for $5.
So then I go back across town, closer to home, to Best Buy thinking, surely they will. First off, GTA 5 wasn't even on the store floor. I then had to hunt around for an employee to ask and he said they had them behind the counter, but when I asked him about price matching, he said they aren't doing that today. Well, fuck! Could they not have put that in their flyer? Or had a sign up front or something? Toys R Us did! Why couldn't Future Shop and Best Buy?
So I ended up just going and getting it at WalMart. Where they had tons of them. Not even close to being sold out. But in the line in front of me was an old lady who was upset that they would not hold on to her TV for her until her son could come after work to help her carry to her car and from her car into the house. Rightfully so! How could they expect an old lady to carry a big TV by herself? I tell you retail is getting worse and worse. I'm just going to start buying all my games digitally and any physical goods I'll just order off Amazon and let their little helicopter drones carry it to my house.
