Target - Price Matching?

[frisco]

Anyone have any experience with Target with price matching. Normally, I don't bother with it, but they have a GPS listed there for $80 more than both Best Buy and Wal-Mart. I have a store credit with them though, and it would be ncie to buy it there.

I know Walmart does, but I don't know about Target. I don't remember hearing anything about it. I would call your Target and ask to be sure.

Nope no price matching. We don't even match our internet prices if that price is lower cause its actually licensed through Amazon. Would be nice. Would save me from ppl who insist on arguing about it.

Yeah, just got back. No price matching. Kind of surprised. Wouldn't give the money back for the store credit and wouldn't match the price. $80 - That's a HUGE difference. Plus, Target is priced out $30 more than Garmin's own website. That's VERY odd.

I love Target (compared to Wal-Mart), but have to say, Wal-Mart has much better customer services policies. I worked for 5 years in retail for a chain in the northeast (Bradlees). We used to price match anything from our competitors. Just not online pricing.

I am surprised Its that much of a difference, but I've never priced GPS, so i have no idea what they cost anyhow. I remember Bradlees, shopped there every once in awhile. Thought they died even b4 Amazon started. I know the one I shopped at closed while I was in college and it had been in bankruptcy for awhile b4 that. That was just when the internet was taking off.

That's just how it goes. I have no idea how corporate figures the prices. I'm a lackey on the sales floor. I'm actually glad we don't match Walmart prices though. But if we matched our own internet prices I think that would make sense.
