I went looking for some equipment online and saw that Petsmart.com had some
good prices, certainly much better than any LFS store. Since I live near a
Petsmart store I called them and was surprised by two things:
1) the retail store's prices are much, much higher than the web site's
prices
2) but the store will match the web site's price! All I had to do was print
out the page from the web site that listed the item, its SKU, and price. As
long as it was same SKU as the store sold they matched the price.
End result was I walked away with a Rena AIR 400 for under $47 and a Penguin
170 for under $20. Saved $32+ off the retail store's prices. Too bad the
store doesn't carry more of the website's offerings.
