Re: Silly Best Buy price match "Policy"?

The keyword there being available. While I agree it seems a little silly to check stock on a nominally priced DVD, the salesperson was following company policy.
Was the printer $6.00? If not, then it's a little different with regards to the price match policy. The original point here was to discuss why an employee of BB would call CC to confirm a $6.00 price on a $10.00 regular price sd dvd. The $4.00 difference doesn't seem worth the effort or time wasted.
