Wal-Mart Stores Refuse to Pricematch Wal-Mart Web Site
    

Carnivale Season 2 came out on DVD this week - a show which Kim and I both loved despite its early demise. I had planned on picking it up at Costco since they usually have great prices on HBO series, but they didn't get it in (or even list it on their website), so I looked around elsewhere online.

Turns out that Wal-Mart.com had it listed for $63, which is what Costco usually prices at, so I decided to stop by the local Wal-Mart to pick it up.  When I got there, the price was $78, so I figured, hey, print out their web page and have them price match it.

Wrong.

Turns out Wal-Mart refuses to match their own website.  Furthermore, from talking to their electronics guy, they won't price match another Wal-Mart store.

Wal-Mart - Always Low Prices...unless you find it cheaper within their own system.
