Wal-Mart vs Amazon vs Target - Online price wars

Deja vu: Wal-Mart, Amazon, Target in DVD price war - Yahoo! News

I saw this on like CBS news not long ago and looked it up. Basically Wal-Mart is doing everything it can to be a lower price than anyone else online for the holidays. It started out with books and it's went over into their DVDs. The DVD prices are pre-order only I do believe. I checked a list of DVDs coming out in early December are most are $9.98. Movies like Terminator Salvation, Julia & Julia and Night at the Museum 2 are part of the $9.98 DVDs.

Competitive pricing? Not in my United States, sir!

$9.98 WHAT A DEAL

[Correction]

Doesn't Best Buy sell the same shitty DVDs for 5 bucks?

[Fhloston]

Blu-Ray onry

I hate the gimmicky "one cent cheaper" prices. It makes them seem like they perceive shoppers as like mindless impulse knee-jerk dummies. lol

Okay maybe that's not entirely inaccurate, but still, that doesn't mean I have to like them.

The sad thing is that people are actually that stupid. We've had people come into our store asking for something we had, and then said they were going to go somewhere else because it was 10 cents cheaper.

We would have just given them the 10 cents off, but they made it known that paying an extra 10 cents over Wal-Mart was just unacceptable.

Not to mention the gas they just wasted to drive over to Wal-Mart..

kinda like driving around to find the cheapest gas... or buying regular/midgrade over premium.

I do actually, but only blu ray because those are gay to download

[Zalius]

[Kuya]

I often find that when i wish to download blueray movies they often want to have sex with people of their own sex.

Reminds me of this bitch came to my store when we were having a sale on watermelon and threw this huge assed fit when I told her we sold out. She demanded that I go in the back and see if we had any and being the shitty customer service rep that I am (plus knowing I won't get fired over something like that), I told her I wasn't going back to there to check on something I know we don't have. She stormed off to customer service to get someone else to go back there and check. Problem with that was, I was the only one working produce and so it'd all come back to me anyway.

Now she has the nerve to bitch that it takes her 15 mins to get here and she wasted her time and gas. All the while I'm thinking to myself, if you're time was so precious, you would've called before you came like everyone else does.

Now here's the shit that'll blow everyone's mind.

Spoiler: show

She was white.

I knew she was white since black people only go around on stolen bikes, not cars. Nice try though.
