Had to deal with these suckheads today:
SC: Yeah, I was just over by (big chain hardware/home improvement store) and they have these lawn ornaments for $14.99. (here he shows me the sales label he pilfered from their shelf
). I see you have them for $34.99. You'll match that price, right?
(Yeah, I know. We're ri-cock-u-lously expensive on certain things, but that's because we don't buy them in bulk like the bigger stores do. Deal with it.)
Me: Sorry, but it would have to be an advertised sale price, and you would have to bring in the ad to get the price match.
SC: (whipping out his flyer for big chain hardware/home improvement store). See? Their ad says they have their lawn decorations 20% off. So that means I get it for 20% off of $14.99.
Me: I'll have to check up on that (I called the service desk to find out if we would match that price, and was told we don't match percents off, just specific advertised prices; otherwise the customer will want the percent off the cheaper store's price, like this guy was doing.)
Me: I'm sorry, but we can only match specific prices, not percents off.
SC's wife: That's ridiculous! Your ads always say you'll match advertised prices.
SC: Yup. Let's go talk to the people at the service desk. THEY would know what the policy is.
Yes, of course they would. Which is why I JUST TALKED TO THEM. Have fun getting nowhere with them either. Besides, if you were willing to rip off the other store's shelf label, then why didn't you buy that damn ugly lawn chotchky there instead!?
