Note to self: Remember to ask...

My daughter is a talented artist and wanted a touch pad to able to draw on the computer. Staples had the Bamboo pen and touch for $99.99. Go on Best Buy website to see what their price was it was $129.99. So I was going to price match there because they also had a coupon if you spend $100.00 you save $10.00. Print coupons and go down to Best Buy only to find out that they are sold out. (at this point I was cursing thinking I should have called) Get to work and call staples to see if they have any left. They have one. I put it on hold and run right after work and hope they don't sell it on me! Disappointed that I was not going to get to use the coupon. I look up and see that they also have price match. So I asked if they also accept other stores coupons. They do!

So this is what I ended up with:
Bamboo pen and touch reg. $129.99 on sale for $99.99 saved $30.00
Lolly pop to make it over $100.00 was $.89 Saved additional 9.11
total before taxes $90.88
total savings $39.11 which is pretty good for computer items.

In the future I will always be asking!

Great deal!
Good reminder: don't lose anything to ask if a store price matches and/or if they accept other/competitor store coupons. Good tip.
