Hey guys,
I'm looking to grab a Nikon D40 for my birthday tomorrow. I have a 12% off coupon from Best Buy, but the camera is $30 cheaper at Circuit City. Would BB pricematch it and then I can use my coupon? Or does CC match competitors coupons?

I'd love some help/advice before I go so I know what the deal is. Thanks!
 
Totally YMMV, but I've never had a problem with pricematching a CC ad at BB and then applying a BB coupon. It almost always required a manager override to apply the coupon, though.

I'd say it's always worth a shot. Worst they can do is say no.

Good luck.

EDIT: I've tried to get CC to accept competitor's coupons with little success. Others here have had great success...but it's been a while since I've read about anyone trying.
 
[quote name='missingno81']Yes, Bestbuy will price match if available and you can use your 12% coupon for the extra savings.[/quote]Incorrect.

Any changes to the price make any coupon use by the register without any manual intervention impossible. It'll kick out the coupon and the 12% discount won't work.

On the terms of the 12% off coupon, it'll say that it's not combinable with any other offers. A PM is another offer, so it automatically invalidates the coupon in the register.

If you do get a PM + 12% off coupon, it'll need to be adjusted manually, and then depends on the sales rep deciding to follow the rules on the coupon.

It's YMMV if it works, so I wouldn't count on it.
 
I've used Reward Zone certificates(not sure if those are technically considered a coupon at BB) while price-matching a CC ad last year when Orange Box came out.

Not sure how it is now though, if it's changed.

Those are considered a form of payment so you can use those.

OP, no you won't be able to price match then use a coupon. It does happen but its not suppose to happen and its very rare.
 
My suggestion would be to price match it, then go back a day or 2 later and apply the coupon saying it came in the mail after you purchased it.
