Can we use Outpost.com prices at FRY's?

Will FRY's (B&M) price match the Outpost.com price if we print out the webpage.

I would love to pick up Jeepers Creepers for $13.99 at my local FRYS!!!

I tried it!

Short answer: No.

Long answer: Shortly after Moulin Rouge came out and Outpost had it for $16.99, The Austin, TX Fry's had it for $24.99. (This was the first Thursday of its release!) Anyway, after the cashier walked me over to a supervisor standing at a podium overlooking the entire CD/DVD area, he told me that Fry’s does not price match with any online stores, not even their own. (I did have an Outpost page printout.)

Off-topic -- I must have some morbid fascination with trying to get Fry’s to do good by me. This is the third time I’ve been in a Fry’s and have left empty handed, vowing never to return. But I always give them another chance and they fail me. I’ve been to a Dallas, a Houston and the Austin locations and they all have disappointed me.

Getting back to the forum topic, it makes no sense that Fry's would not honor this deal. Even if they had factored in the shipping cost to the $16.99 Outpost order and charged sales tax, I believe Outpost still would have been cheaper in the end. I left and got it new for $17.07 shipped from someone on half.com.
