I bought a printer in ASDA 4 days ago. Today I discovered exactly the same type of printer in Staples for half price. Do you think I can claim ASDA the price difference ?
thanks

    Asda do have an 'Ad Match' policy - you might swing it with that if you REALLY push it.

    Unless you still have some sort of right of return under an ASDA policy (which you likely won't have if you've opened it), then no you cannot. As a consumer you should be looking round for the best deal before buying something. You have no right to gain a price difference back just because you didn't do your homework.

    Ah but that is a different issue entirely, known as censor bypassing. To do that you have to make your post in a full blooded manner. No pussy footing around ;)
