Coraline ($19.32) + Watchmen ($20.32) - BestBuy Matching Walmart.com - Blu-ray Forum

DAMNSAM77 · 07-22-2009, 04:42 PM

This maybe a hot deal if you are like me, and many others in the midwest, who do not have the luxury of having a near by Fry's store. So getting Bestbuy to match Walmart.com is the next best thing!

Last night I had Bestbuy match Walmart.com's sale prices on Coraline ($19.32), just print the Walmart page and take it to the register with the movie. They also have Watchmen on sale at Walmart.com for ($20.32). Let the price matching begin!

My advice, print the two pages from Walmart.com ASAP as Wally's website is known to flip flop on prices on a daily basis, so the price could go up tomorrow, so its better to have a hardcopy of the current price so you could present to Bestbuy later. 99% of the time the bestbuy clerk will not even bother to check the website if you have a print out, unless it's showing an old date.

Yup, got Watchmen at BB by price-matching Wal-Mart's $20.32 - the best price I could find for it. I would have just gone to Wal-Mart but it is a much longer drive during lunch break.

But we all know that Walmart will not match their own website prices, so don't waste your breath trying to do the right thing. You did better by having BB match them, and you get to rack up RZ points.

Oh man, you're right - it was probably $29.99 in-store. That is so stupid of Wal-Mart...drives me crazy.

Wow I didnt know this " Best Blu-ray/PS3/HT Pricing" forum even existed...

BLURAYSONYES · 07-22-2009, 07:54 PM

true. printing the ad dont help. They need the real newspaper/flyer ad and they would call that lowered priced store to see if they have it in stock which more likely as a very popular movie right now its been sold out mostly everywhere according the s. california btw. I wouldnt try it.

They must be really strict in S.Cali, because most users on this forum never had a problem with BB matching another local competitor or those local competitors' website print outs of their lower prices

Works for me here where I am

I did however took the real ad in our daily newspaper to WalMart and they did priced matched WatchMen and Coraline with no problem. They didnt even call the store to make sure it was in stock. Its much easier to fool lower educated employees like at WalMart to do anything. LoL.

Best Buy is like 30 minutes away while I have a walmart about 4 minutes away, but their prices on blurays are expensive (35 bucks for watchmen)
