[quote name='ILikeMe1337']Tried to use this on the Foo Fighters Documentary that just came out on Tuesday that is $17.99 and is exclusive to Best Buy for 1 month I think, cashier tried it two different ways and didn't take it so I asked for a manager, I argued that the coupon doesn't say anything about sale items being excluded, the manager said sale prices are considered "offers," such BS, I ended up just giving up and just bought it for $19.xx with Tax.
I'm just wondering why the register rejected applying the coupon to it, I'm guessing because it's an exclusive Blu-ray Disc to Best Buy for a month, anyone else have an idea?[/QUOTE]
I believe that music videos are considered to be part of the music department, not the video department. Since this coupon is programmed to be video department-specific, anything that falls under a different one won't count in their registers.
With a regularly priced item, you could probably get away with arguing it out with a manager, but yeah, you're going to have a tough sell on a sale item. Technically, the manager was right, sale prices do fall under "other offers" -- the fact that we've all been getting away with using them with sale prices as much as we have is a testament to how little attention the cashiers pay and Best Buy's failure to program their registers properly, not a sign that it should work with them.
