I'm glad I never got involved with the whole RZ gimmick. All I hear on these forums is how Best Buy wont take said coupon or the cashier doesn't know how to process it, etc, etc, etc. Thank God I missed that boat.

One time I was really pissed off at BB. My sister decided to buy an MP3 player. Well despite being fairly young & working with computers since we were younger we don't know much about them. So she picks one up & asks one of the salesclerks where to find the cases. He told her where they were but added that it came with a case. Then he turned around to the other 4 guys (who prior to our question had all been standing around either doing nothing or attempting kung fu) & said something along the lines of stupid girl, maybe she wants 4 cases. I wanted to go tell his supervisor, but she stopped me even though she rarely goes there. Ugh.

Has ANYONE gotten the Western Digital hard drive there that's on sale this week? I went to one Worst Buy yesterday and they had another (higher-priced) drive on the shelf by the price tag for the one on sale, I asked some dumb broad working there if I could get a rain check, and she checked something and said "Sorry, we don't have that one anymore." I went to another one tonight and they didn't have any either, though the space was marked on the shelf and it was shown in the sales flyer. I asked someone for a rain check and they told me I had to ask someone who worked in the computer department, so I spent about half an hour waiting for someone to show up in the computer department who actually worked there. They gave me a rain check, but I'm not gonna hold my breath on being able to get it later. The rain check says "We will contact you when this item is in stock" but I'll eat my hat if they actually do that!
