How to Price Match:
1. Gather all applicable sales flyers, a pen or marker and your shopping list pad/paper/iphone app
2. Circle all of the items in the competitor flyers that you plan to match at your desired store and make your shopping list. It's a good idea to mark the number that you plan to price match. So if you want to price match twice, mark beside or inside your circled item x2.
3. Make a notation on your flyer or shopping list of the matches you intend to do. Before you ask for a price match, remember that you must ask the store to match the exact same item and model number.
4. Know your stores' policy and read all of the fine print ahead of time.
5. Armed with your flyers, always tell the cashier that you are price matching items and show proof of the price from the competitor flyers that you bring with you.
6. Bring your money saving coupons with you and make sure you give them to the cashier after the price match. Walmart, Zellers and No Frills will definitely take coupons on top of price matches but not all stores will
7. Have fun saving money!
EXTRA TIPS FOR PRICE MATCHING
i. Zellers may want to keep your flyer or cut out the price matched ads, so if you have other stores to price match...do those first and leave Zellers for last!
ii. Zellers only allows a maximum of 6 price matched items
iii. If you want to help out the Zellers cashiers and save yourself some time, cut the price match ad on three sides for easier removal.
iv. Know the sales dates, if a special is only 1 day for a store you'd like to match...make sure you match on that day or it's invalid!
