Not Made Of Money

Last week I purchased the Hot Wheels Extreme Cycle as a gift.  I paid $34.99 plus tax for it at Target.  In yesterday’s Target sale ad, this same cycle was advertised at $18!  Eeek!  So I took my receipt to my Target, and went to the customer service department.  I explained to them that I purchased this cycle in the last week, showed them my receipt, and told them this cycle is now on sale for $18.  They refunded me the difference!  I think Target’s policy is that if an item goes on sale within 2 weeks of the purchase date, they will give you the sale price.  Otherwise, I was prepared to return the cycle and get the full refund of the purchase price of $34.99 (plus tax) and then re-buy it at the lower price.  Glad I didn’t have to do that as I had already wrapped the gift. 

Lessons learned:  Always keep receipts.  Continue to check sale prices.
