POSSIBLE hot deal on Seinfeld sets at Strawberries- ***YMMV***

I just found this in the Sunday (12/12) ads. Tell me what you think of this:



Now I know what they MEAN, but they did not include the word "EACH" in the sale price graphic, and someone with less morals than me might be willing to go in and fight with a manager in order to try to get both sets for the $39.99, which would be a deal even if you didn't get the rebate.

or they could just go and try to price-match it somewhere...

If anyone tries it, let me know..

I don't think it is going to fly but good luck to those who try. I have been having a hard time even getting FYE to pm (sister company). One sales drone was babbling about the DM was looking closely at all pm's around holiday season and she didn't want to lose her job over a pm.

Talk about pushing your luck...

I think Helen Keller would know what the ad 'means'. If someone came into my store and tried to price match, I'd laugh at them.

It's not gonna fly, unless the ad explicitly indicates "both".

Well, the Hollywood Video $19.99 misprice had a similar layout and there were a couple of reports from people who claimed that not only did they get a price-match, they also got both for $19.99...

Being screwed over on Coconuts.com's Seinfeld Rebate already, I would STRONGLY advise from purchasing ANYTHING from that shafty excuse of a company!

No way...

It's their marketing scheme...to make you come in and find out for yourself.
