Black Friday & Price Matching

[HayGan]

Does anyone know which store sprice match Black Friday ads? I was hoping to get a camera at Best Buy but that has always been one of the worst stores for Black Friday deals. I was wondering if Wal-Mart in particular would price match as they do carry the item.

Thanks

I know Walmart price matches, but I'm not sure if they do with black Friday items. They may have a restriction.

why not just call the store and ask?

I want to get a camera too. if I buy it now and show up to Best Buy on black friday, will they give me the difference back?

Walmart DOES price match on Black Friday. But you have to make sure the item you want is available at Walmart. Some electronic items are a store brand (but in actuality are the same thing). This is done so stores can't price match them. If you have a 24 hour Walmart, they will open before the 5 am start time for the sale. Bring your ads and pick up the items you want price matched before the crowd gets chaotic. This saves a ton of time and a ton of driving that day!

All this is based on my experience the last 2 years at a KC Walmart. My assumption is that all are the same and that is what I have heard. Doublecheck with your local store before that day.

I know my local Circuit City store does not price match anything on Black Friday. Not sure if it's the same at other Circuit City stores.

just to let you all know the prices listed on the black friday website for Kohl's are wrong, I work for kohl's and saw the black friday flyer yesterday.

In like EVERYTHING is wrong? Tell us the scoop?

If Kohl's ad is wrong ..... I wonder who if some of the other adds are wrong?

Dunno about others but the Walmart ad is pretty on track with what Ive seen in person come in this week (atleast for Toys) as lots of it has already been unpacked and shrink wrapped for next week

Sears is correct - looked at the circular on the Sear's Friends and Family day.

Also keep in mind that price matching only works if the company you're trying to price match against still has the product in stock and/or if it can be confirmed. On Black Friday, all the stores are so busy it's sometimes hard to get them to price match.

Talked to a friend of mine that works for Walmart in KC. She said that the only items they have problems with are the items that come with the bonus items, like the Cinderella video that had the bonus with it. Since it is a Walmart exclusive, they wouldn't price match a store that had the regular one on sale.

Sorry I should correct myself, the prices are correct but they are all earlybird specials so they are only good till 1pm and just a word of advice if you are looking to buy any of the tv's or dvd players then be there atleast 30 mins before thoe store opens because last year all are dvd players were gone in 4 mins oh and also they are usually set up on a tower near the young mens department so if you are looking for there items line up near those doors, (the floor plans for kohl's stores are company wide so the location is most likely dead on)remember that there are 2 different DVD player at 2 different prices so know which one you want. One has a $30 mail in rebate.

Pretty sure they won't give it to you, they probably would consider it a limited time offer or something. You will also be waiting FOREVER to have that taken care of.

If you don't want to get to the store, try ordering it online. They usually have the same/similar deals.

Generally to qualify for price matching the item must be in stock at the ad store and you must have that store in your area, within a certain distance.

Living in a small town we only have a Walmart; so no Kmart or Target to price match.
