Price matching - the ins and outs

Options
Here's what I want to do. I want to buy a new TV but I've seen it cheaper on the net than in store. If I ask them to price match are there any things I need to do? For example take a printout of the web offer to show? Does it have to be a certain website etc?

Any help with regards price matching in a situation like this please. Thanks.

    Usually shops will only match instore prices and not web prices. If it is a big difference they will visit the shop that you suggest and only give you the full amount if it is in stock, which around this time, is less likely. John Lewis are very good for price matching, and their prices include a 5 year guarentee.

    Try soundandvision.co.uk - they are based in farnworth, near bolton and deliver nationwide - check the online price and give them a call as they are normally pretty good with price-matching.
