So see if I can summarize this story.
- I've read on this site about the TRU 2 for $10 sale.
- I've read on this site that Target has started a price matching policy. (They have certainly never done this before, as I've checked.)
- I've also read that Target will apparently honor competitor's prices so long as an actual dollar value is included in the ad.
- I've
also
read here that Target will retroactively price match against a competitor's ad any items which were purchased within the last 90 days. (This one seemed like a stretch to me.)
- My stupid newspaper did NOT include the TRU sales flyer for reasons which I cannot explain.
It seemed logical to me to attempt to find this all out for myself today, so I went to TRU in Cary to find out. I was hoping that they'd just have some Joes which I wanted, but no such luck there. I asked if they had a sales flyer, and I was told that they had ONE and it was a store copy which they could not give me. Knowing this, I went to Target in Cary and asked about their price matching policy. The rep I spoke with was very helpful and told me that they've only just started the policy within the past week. She said that as long as I could bring in a 100% complete newspaper-distributed ad from a competitor (meaning no internet prints), they'd honor it. I then specifically asked "what if the competitor's ad states buy 2 for $10," and was told that they'd still honor it. I couldn't get over this, but others on this site have corroborated it. Maybe it's because this policy is so new that Target employees aren't considering the details of honoring this...? Anyway, as soon as I find a sales flyer, I'm gonna see what happens if I take 2 separate receipts for purchases of 2 Joes each back to Target and see if they will adjust according to the TRU deal. Hell of a trick if it works, and I'm not returning anything. (Never have, never will.)
