I got a TV from Best buy two days ago. Now as I was briwsing through I found out about circuit city's instore.com deal. For all purchases $299.00 and above you recieve a 20% worth gift card. This is just for one time use and for internet customers only.

I think this itself should be hot.

What should I do ? Simply return the TV from best buy and get the same thing from circuit city or try and get Best best match circuit citty's promotion.
Does anyone have exp with instore.com ?
I paid $379 for the TV at bestbuy and its 399 at circuit city.

I need your suggestions.

Return TV to best buy, ask them if they'll match the CC deal, if not return the TV. Then have CC price match BB + 10% and then get the 20% in GC's.

You will not get BestBuy to match this promotion. They are the worst when it comes to matching anything.

So take that into consideration.

Thats what I think BB sucks in price match stuff. So I would be better off returning the TV I think.

CC has an awesome pricematch policy, but they WILL NOT allow you to combine a pricematch with other offers (freebies, rebates, other promotions). Sometimes a sales clerk may not care or slip up and give it to you, but at the ones near me they are very cautious about this. Their registers won't even print rebate forms if there is a pricematch.

I would go to BB with your receipt and the ad, talk to a manager and see what they say. If they deny you, go to CC and try the pricematch BEFORE you waste the effort of taking the TV back to best buy.

But I am trying BB to match CC. There were no rebates on this TV. Actually I saw at a couple of posts wheer people had got the same TV for like $270 from CC and I already have paid 380 for this TV at BB.
I got ripped off.:disgust:
