Guess what happened to me at best buy?

I don't know if this should go into the deals forum....but I'll bust it here anyways. So I go into bestbuy today, and I see a massive sale on 100 pack 48x write memorex cd-r's for 9.99 after rebates. When I go and checkout, the cashier said they were 48 bucks with no rebates. So I said what the heezies. out of madness, I take the cd-r's and don't buy them. I go back into bestbuy and shop for more. I go and read the 9.99 for the cd-r's again, and see that bestbuy put out the wrong cd-r's. The brand they were selling the 9.99 for was this POS brand called "memtec". I pointed that out to the manager and she said it was a BIG mistake they put out the wrong brand. SOOOO, most of the workers at bestbuy hurry and make the switch of cd-r brands, and the manager just sold me the whole 100 pack memorex for 9.99! It was great...I don't even have to mail in anything! Heck yeah.

Sorry for the long story...as you can see, this is the best thing that has happened to me in a LOOOONG time!

yeah, i've taken advantage of a couple bestbuy pricing mistakes. last november, they were selling the samsung 570v tft screen for a mere $299 and the 17" version for $399. needless to say, i took this as a sign to finally get a lcd screen. now that i think about it, i shoulda got the 17" monitor. oh well.
