Had a look on woolworths website and found this nice little bucket bbq,
http://www.woolworths.co.uk/web/jsp/product/index.jsp?pid=50983553 its a whopping £3.60, however when i went instore and found a few on the shelf, these were priced up at £5.97, i said to the sales person will you price match your web as they are out of stock online, i was told that they were not allowed to do that and you either pay the price stated £5.97 or do not bother. :mad: can anyone advise.
i know its only a few pounds and pence but its the principle

most places seem to treat the shop and online parts as different companies?

Reminds me of the old joke "when we've run out we'll price them at £3.60 as well"

There is no principle. You've seen one thing one place and another thing in another place. You can't tell people what to charge. Offers are always different online with companies.

Yeah, agree with this. Why not just buy it online?

The principle is that you went to a shop where there was a bbq with an invitation to treat, the £5.97 price tag. You offered to buy the bbq for £3.60 They chose not to accept your offer. So no contract.

You still have your £3.60: they still have the bbq (unless someone else paid £5.97 for it of course).
