It’s that time of the year again! It’s the Holidays, which means it’s time to shop for the latest and greatest toys for your children, grandchildren, friends and family. The trendiest toys, however, are usually costly and available at many locations, making the purchaser’s decision difficult. However, many huge retailers are promising price matching guarantees. This will ensure that you are getting the lowest price possible for your gifts this holiday season. All that you must do is simply bring in an advertisement or clipping of the toy (or any product for that matter) that is being sold at a lower price than the retailer you are at, show this advertisement to the cashier, and they will match the cost of the lower advertised price, saving you precious dollars. Policies vary per retailer; however, so making sure you know the rules is the best way to make sure you save every buck you can.
Here are some links to a few of the biggest retail chains that you will be shopping at this holiday season explaining the specifics to their price matching policy:
• Best Buy: http://www.bestbuy.com/pricematch
• Target: https://corporate.target.com/about/shopping-experience/our-low-price-promise
• Toys R Us: http://www.toysrus.com/pricematch
• WalMart: http://corporate.walmart.com/ad-match-guarantee
• Sears: http://www.sears.com/pricematch
• PayPal: https://www.paypal-promo.com/holiday/pricematch.html
• Citi Price Rewind: https://www.citipricerewind.com
This is not a comprehensive list of retailers that participate in price matching. If there are specific stores you have in mind, go to their website and search “price matching”, and you will most likely find that they participate in price matching, especially during the holidays.
Happy Shopping!
