So I've been seeing people report price changes at tru recently. I heard a commercial on tv playing in the other room just now going on about how cool TRU was, with screaming kids in the background after someone told what sounded to be a large group of them, that they could have any toy they wanted.
ANyways, at the very end of it I hear "Price match guaranteed". Does this mean you could get matttel figures from there at the same price as wal/K-mart as long as you can find them in an ad? I can see it not working on exclusives, but to get some elite figures for cheaper would be pretty sweet. At my Tru there is a $5 difference after taxes over wal/k-mart and target. elites, 2 packs and basics.

My Target and TRU both charge $22.99 for Elites anyway so it would be pretty useless. Dang it!

There has to be an actual price listed for an ad match, etc. |

They wouldn't do both together is what I'm saying. |

You might not need just a weekly ad because unless WWE figures are on sale at a different store they're not going to be in the weekly flyer.
What you could try to do is go to the store website, find wwe figures and print out a page and bring that in.
I live in Canada where they only sell elites at TRU, so i am bound to buy them for whatever they sell them for.

Worth a shot. Has anyone tried a site price match before? If so, how did you present it? |

My TRU only gets the exclusives anyway so sadly this doesnt affect me. I think the last regular line elite i saw at either of the 2 TRUs by me was e15 :/

... So, $8 elites? Worth a shot. Has anyone tried a site price match before? If so, how did you present it? The $8 Elites are listed as 'clearance' and they will not price match clearance items. We will not match prices for competitors': Clearance, closeout, damaged product, used, refurbished, open packages or liquidation sales |

I've only had them price match to the TRU website because most of the stores near me bump up their prices. One store in particular will charge as much as $5 more than the website! I just pull it up on my iPhone and they do it at checkout, not like Target who require you to go to Customer Service. I've never tried it with a different store's website, but it's worth a shot with the new price increases. Kmarts here already raised the price to $17.99 a few weeks ago and a visit to Walmart on Monday revealed their prices went up, too. I can't imagine Target is far behind. The TRU close to work only has BoPPV Elites right now ($22.99), but the exclusive HHH is $17.99 there.
