Future Shop/Best Buy price accuracy policy

[ennervate]

For any of you that shop at BB or FS (if you're in Canada) there's somthing yuo should know about the scanner price accuracy policy...IT'S AWESOME. Basically, if you're paying for something and the price comes up different on the screen you get a discount, but YOU HAVE TO CATCH THEM.

It goes like this:
If the product with the inaccuarte sticker is over $10 then you get $10 off your purchase. If the product in quesstion is $10 or less, you get the item for FREE.

A lot of people don't know this and it's easy to find stuff that has been missed by a price change if you just take a quick look. It's an easy way to save.

I'm pretty sure you only get the discount if it scans for MORE than the marked price, not less than.

You're both wrong. From the Scanning Code of Practice:

[quote name='SCOP']If the scanned price of a non-price ticketed item is higher than the shelf price or any other displayed price, the customer is entitled to receive the item free, up to a $10 maximum. When the item has a price tagged, the lowest price applies. [/quote]
