Default I Picked Up F4:ROTSS For 9.99

I Went To Target And Saw The Movie On Wrong Shelf. They Put The Blu Version Where The DvD Version Of The First Movie Is Supposed To Be. The Cashier Rang It Up And Showed 29.99 And I Told Him It Said 9.99 He Went To Check And Saw They Were Misplaced But He Honored That Price

this is one of the oldest tricks in the book.. give it a shot sometime and just say it was in the wrong place, usually at places like target, etc they have to honor the price (i used to work there, i know their policy of the customer is always right)

Only capitalize the first word in every sentence, proper names, "I", and abbreviations.

PROBABLY THE WHOLE POST WAS ON CAPS, VBULLETIN DOES THAT DO CAPS-ONLY POSTS, IT LOWERS EVERYTHING BUT THE FIRST LETTER OF EVERY WORD. IN FACT I'M WRITING THIS ALL IN CAPS TO PROVE MY POINT

edit: and I failed miserably

Even though it was good customer service you might have just cost that person there job. Depends on how the Manager fells to be honest. Since by the way you posted you knew that was not something they had to match since a mis-placed item does not qualify as a mis-marked item.

people try stuff like that at my work all the time (Best Buy).

They'll say...well the peg says this price, and I walk over with them find a bare peg and grab something randomly put it there and say...ok so if a customer sets something back in the wrong spot, we should sell it for that? Sir, would you honor that if it were your business? I also proceed to show them were the product description/model number and UPC do not match the tag on the shelf/peg they grabbed it from. I usually find the real product that was the price they were hoping for and show it to them, and it's odd....they never want that one.

Places like Target & sometimes Wal-mart honor it, because the employees are Lazy and don't care, not because "they feel the customer is always right".
