Anyone have any info regarding Best Buy's price match policy? Specifically, whether or not they will match the price of Sam's Club.
TIA

Sam's Club isn't the same class of store as Best Buy.
Sam's Club is a membership club that offers deals to their members in exchange for their fees for membership. They're not available to the general public that wouldn't have a membership.
Since anyone can walk into Best Buy and pick up an item for sale and not everyone can pick up an item for sale at Sam's Club without a membership, they shouldn't match the price of an item at Sam's Club.
If they're hard up for sales, I can see them doing it, though assume that they won't.

A price match doesn't seem too likely in this case.
However, I think anyone *can* walk into Sam's Club without a membership and buy something...you just have to pay ~10% more.

I think you may still need a guest pass though

BB will also only price match 3 of the same merchandise
If you plan on reselling the items, they can refuse to price match as well
