As the lengthy title notes, rumors have begun to swirl that Best Buy will be making some rather big changes to their official price matching policy starting on March 3rd that will greatly affect those who make Best Buy their shopping destination for video games and other electronics.
Best Buy officially ends its Gamers Club Program as of Feb. 28th, 2021. While the company had stopped selling the membership, it was still honoring the discount but that ends next month.
We needed this program now more Than ever. I’m not paying $70 for a lot of these games coming out now.
If you were one of the lucky ones to get a Nintendo Switch for the holidays, well, congratulations, you’re in for a treat. Now that you have the console, it’s time to pimp out your newly-minted device with some much-needed accessories, and right now, Best Buy has a bunch of options 50% off.
Choose any two of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S game and get the third game of equal or lesser value for free
This is why competition benefits consumers :)
I was planning on getting the Galaxy S4 at Amazon Wireless. Now I can just walk five blocks to my local BB, get the phone at the cheapest price AND get a $50 gift card on top of that!

Most places dont price match things that have limited quanities
sad they will no longer price match within 30 days after purchase.
example, I pre ordered Dead Space 3 for $60, Best Buy gives you a $20 certificate for pre ordering. This Sunday I see Kmart has the game for $45, I can call Best Buy to price match and get $15 back. So Dead Space 3 costs me $25 plus tax, I can trade it in (right now Best Buy will give $36) when I'm done and basically gets paid to play a brand new game.
What other retailer would even price match post purchase? oh well.
I've been price matching amazon for years, so that part is old news to me. The new polices aren't that bad(maybe to some they are), It doesn't take me 15 days to know if I want to return something or not.
Abouuuuuuuuut time
