I usually use these two sites:

http://shopping.ocregister.com/ROP/ads.aspx?advid=179018&cat=49

http://newspaperads.mercurynews.com/RopAds.aspx?adv=32664

Since I dont have a Fry's around (I live in Chicago, they're in Downers Grove) I usually print these out and take them to CC for PriceMatch

Please note not all CC's match Fry's (it varies here too)

Also, whats nice about these sites are that if you miss a sale, the site hangs on to a few of the old papers (also multi-regional, for those ( ) only sales)

Good luck
 
I don't think this is anywhere near worth being stickied. Trying to price match to Fry's ads that you printed off the internet when Fry's aren't even in the same region as 75% of the country isn't going to have a very high success rate.

It is useful info for those with Fry's nearby though, so thanks for that.

He's right. You have 3 strikes against you: 1) No expiration date on the printed version of the ad (Unless you printed the first/last pages of each ad as well...but how does the employee know you didn't just merge ads from different dates). 2) No half-way competent employee will accept a print out of an ad. 3) You have to have a Fry's near in order to PM, since nearly all PM policies apply only to "local" competitors.

That being said, I'd say most store employees aren't competent enough (or don't care) to properly enforce their PM policies. But here in LA, I get shot down every so often and I bring in the real ad from the paper!

BTW, as someone from Chicago, you should know that the Downer's Grove ad is often VERY different from the ads from any other city. Sales prices are often higher and different items are offered from the other ads that you listed.

ddp72984, anytime you want something stickyed just PM one of the mods to have them do it or PM Cheapy for his approval.

Try at your own risk because they might or might not do it.
