Screw Best Buy!!! [Mobile/Archive]

I can't belive what they did to CheapyD and the rest of us at CAG. Here is a little trick I learned. While this never pertains to video games, it does come in handy. Best Buy and Circuit City and the rest of those chain stores all price match. Look in the Circuit City ad for something that is on sale without a mail in rebate. Now look in the Best Buy ad for the same item but with a mail in rebate. Take the circuit city ad into best buy. Best buy will price match it, then you will get the rebate. My favorite exploit of this:

Western Digital 40gb Hard Drive:
Circuit City $100- $40 instant savings = $60
Best Buy $100 - $40 mail in rebate.

Best Buy price match = $60 - $40 Mail in rebate. Total = $20!!!!

I did this twice for two different addreses, then had my sister do it. I got 3 40gb hard drives for a total of $60.

This is a hard deal to pull off, you have to carefully look throught the ads each sunday. I would say about once every two or three months a deal like this comes along.

ENJOY!!!

My mom says Im cool!! Actually, I got laid off 7 months ago, and have moved back in with my parents. It's just a reminder of the good times I had, and the good times to come.

Looking retarded with a cigar in your mouth is a reminder of the good days? Boy, I'd hate to see what's in your mouth during the bad days...

I don't understand, I made a rhetorical question, where's the blindness come in? Are you illiterate or something?

At office max last week u could get that same drive for 80-60 **instant rebate** so you only pay 20 at the store. But then again screwing bestbuy over is the nice thing! :), wonder if it really affects them though

Oh man do those Raspberry cakes look good.

However mentioning Banky's nuts make anything less appetizing by far.
