Hell, that's easy. Just price the items at the retail price in the first
place, negating the necessity for us to search the net for the retail price
before going to the store to play "Price Match Game" in the first place.

It reminds me of the Tehran Baazar where the price tag is about double what
he really expects to get for it after the haggling has gone on
interminably....

Retailers are playing a NEW price match game, now, but I'm not sure about
WM. The same Gateway notebook computer at Best Buy now has a different
model number, only available at Best Buy stores, than the Circuit City
Gateway notebook, only available at Circuit City stores. Even though it's
exactly the same computer, no price match is necessary as it's not EXACTLY
the same model number any more. On the bottom of both of them, it says,
Model MA3 on the Gateway label. At CC, they call it MX6438. I'm typing
this on one, now.

Better stainless screws that the head doesn't twist off of like West
Marine's are half price at True Value Hardware.....Why?
