CAGiversary!
Have you guys seen the new commercials for Circuit City's One Price Promise? It seems everytime I turn the television set on, there it is. Well, just take a look at their website about this "promise" - http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/genericContent.do?oid=228417
"Is one low price too much to ask for? We don't think so.
At Circuit City, there are no mixed signals. Whether you purchase online or in any of our 600 stores, you'll get the same low price on the product of your choice. We promise.
So what?
That means you can check the price of an item on circuitcity.com and then purchase it at the same low price at any Circuit City store. No surprises. No homework or legwork on your part. And if you ever see a different price in the store that's higher than the listing on circuitcity.com, you'll get the lower price.
Keep up!
Although prices are always consistent online and in stores, we sharpen our prices constantly. Visit us online to check for the lowest, up-to-the-minute pricing, then purchase your way—on the site or in the store.
This is our One Price Promise, our guarantee that you can shop with confidence."
Look towards the bottom in small letters...
"One Price Promise may not apply to DVDs, CDs, video games, bundled offers, clearance or open-box items. Our One Price Promise is specific to tagged prices in-store and online."
I am looking forward to Sunday when I try this for the first time. Circuit City's website states they have Rock Band 2 for the PS3 for $49.99. I am going to try this for the game. But I bet they will just look this up online, read the first sentence, and deny me.
It is real slimey to do that commercial and then exclude most of the things people buy week in and week out.
