For a minute there, I thought they were doing away with the PM policy all together. I've only taken advantage of their PM policy twice in 3 years, once with Amazon and the other with their own website. I'm not too worry, there will always be great (not PM outstanding) deals with combinations of coupons/rebates/12% discounts.

About time...

Good, they will probably let me off of the blacklist now.

No it's the area. You can't really pricematch in the city. It's more difficult that it may not be worth it.


Lol. There's a even better reason not to pricematch for Staples.com. Since you don't know it, it's probably beyond you.

I stopped bothering to PM at Staples long ago. The manager at the Staples closest to me actually refused a price match because, "I'll be losing money if I match that price, it's below my cost". So instead she lost all of my business.

i think you know too much for your own good. so keep LOLing with your reasons to have not paid a lower price. you have the rest of your life to justify those reasons now that its over

Did anybody really expect Staples to continue getting buggered like this indefinitely?


alert mods    

They had to do this. Best Buy started giving instant rebates on ram and laptops ($100's of dollars). I had already lined some people up to take advantage of this since I cannot order from them.

Oh well.

Stapl3s lost my company business.

The term "manufacture rebates" is newly inserted?


alert mods    

all i can say is, "thanks" for the good deals. at least they still have good CS. it still remains to be seen how aggressively its enforced.

Staples never used to take its own available rebates into consideration. In fact, at one time they used to pricematch to other retailers after rebate price. We killed that with a free ram deal years ago.

Rare species, yes. Shame....heck no....location based definitely. Plus, he's too busy making $$$ elsewhere than $Taples PM

I guess the $30 off coupons are even more hotter now.. lucky me I have 10 of those and I will list them on shebay

I hate to say this... but i don't even bother trying to read your posts... trying to read your post takes the same amount of time to read the entire thread

Lol...nope. They were valuable because of the pricematching with coupon deals. They are now enforcing their policy. They have also started being freer with their coupons. I got 2 $20/100's in my email today and I am on the blacklist.


alert mods    

Well, the coupon rule was always there.
