Ditto. Here they sell it for 10% less than you can
show them it is available from somewhere else for.

In the UK this tends not to work too well.

Corse it does.

No two competing stores will have the exact same item.

I dont buy that with appliances and tools
and stuff like that and that is the price of what
most care about, those higher priced items.

That is exactly where it happens.

For example, different chains will stock exactly the same washing
machine, but it will have one digit different in the model number from
those supplied to other chains. Each chain only stocks their own model
(despite them actually being the same and from the same production
line), so you cannot pull up the same model number at another chain for
a price match. It is no use pointing out that the models are the same,
despite the different number, because they just deny that it is the same
model and refuse to price match.
