Post-it: Tip of the day

Category:

Most people when they go into a store they just go in and buy their product without doing any research about it first. You should not do this! First off you don't know if your product it going to be compatible with some of the tings that you may have.

The most important reason for doing research before you buy is so that you wont get ripped off. I remember looking for my surround system at BestBuy.com and it said that it was at a $60 discount. It did not say online only. So I go to the store thinking that I'm going to get a pretty good deal on the 5.1 surround sound speakers. So I ask one of the employees at my local BestBuy store to help me get my speakers. He did and he was very helpful but when I went to go and pay it, I saw that it didn't have the discount.So I ask what was going on, and why it had said that there was a discount on there website. They brought me to one of their in store computers to show me that there was no discount. But how could this be? Just a couple minutes ago at my house I had seen that there was a $60 discount and now on their in store computer it shows no discount. The guy was like are you sure it said $60 discount? I was getting pissed but good thing I had read an article online on how BestBuy's in store website is different than the one that me and you see at our homes. So I told the guy this and he didn't believe me, than I wipe out the web page that I had printed out at my house just a couple of minutes before. He was in shock. I guess that he was clueless about the whole thing, so he sent me to customer desk. I showed it to them and they tried to talk me out of it, but I told them that I wanted to speak with the manger. In the end they gave me the discount because I bet that he knew about the price changes, and I bet that he didn't want to have a lawsuit on his hands.

So the main point of this story is that dong your research on a product that your going to buy is a must because companies will try to rip you off.
