No really its appealing to the Walmart generations
It def is more convenient to buy all your stuff from there

But don't even try to say they have the best quality stuff in the store (everything from produce to tvs are usually vastly inferior, either old models or what not)

It all comes down to money
I can understand worrying if buying a car wanting to save a few thousand
But to beg for $0.10 off bananas or $1 off bread?
Why bother?
(I am more surprised people actually waste time reading flyers in the newspaper, half the time I just toss paper unread into the blue box)

I think LovelyThanks4Asking is referring to Best Buy and Futureshop. Same company but allow you to price match each other. I know the VP of marketing at Best Buy and they do this on purpose to drive up traffic to the store.

They aren't exactly same company; they do have different distribution etc & even carry different product

Either way a larger ticket purchase makes more sense to shop around for

A penny save is a penny earn. (Well there are no more pennies, only nickels but this line doesn't sound right with nickel)

You may notice that both BestBuy and Futureshop are starting to stock other non electronic items like furniture, baby products and even food. They are moving into a one stop shop like Walmart. Pretty soon, you will see more price matching everywhere.

Yea... that... sorry, evidently I'm also too lazy to type in coherent sentences today

its not worrying, nor is it begging. But if I do a full shop, and can save anywhere from 5-20$ in a shot, then why wouldnt I? sure, its not the thousands that a car would cost, but I'm buying this stuff anyways, so if I can save a few $$ in doing so, of course I will. to each there own then. if you think its begging, great, if you think im a loser, great... so be it, do your thing, i'll do mine.

And FutureShop will beat the competitor's price by 10% of the difference... that's like the skill testing question that will need to be explained to lots of people... sometimes with visual aids!

"But don't even try to say they have the best quality stuff in the store (everything from produce to tvs are usually vastly inferior, either old models or what not)"

except pretty much every brand name that they sell in the store, well in the grocery isles anyways...that sh*t is the same everywhere.

Also, if you move your vehicle after pumping, but before paying, it freaks out the attendants. Several of them have been dragged and killed because of people stealing gas, so while you may have good intentions of letting the next person start pumping, the attendant has to track which car belonged to which pump and which person came out of what car and what brand of cigarettes the person who's already AT the register would like to buy.... so if someone really wants to be considerate, they'll wait patiently in line while the person in front of them pumps, pays and leaves.

How about the old man in front of you on a Sunday at 12:56pm that pulls out the lottery envelope full of tickets and gets the cashier to check... meanwhile your turning red trying to get your proline bets in before kick off at 1pm



...that sh*t is real world problems

No I don't. Because I can see them. The price matcher looks just like you and me and then wham, out comes the wad of flyers and its back and forth for the next 10 minutes. LOSERS!

So go to Metro at 3 am and you will have the whole store to yourself....problem solved

that's fine, but do it when theres no one around. When people are waiting to pay for their shopping because you're an inconsiderate loser, it pisses people off. Go early in the morning when no ones there. Problem solved.

Give up already...you are outnumbered
