Electronics and household app.
I went into fry's the other day and went to the wall where they post their most recent ad.
Posted next to their Ad's were several "Price Correction"
notices indicating that some mistake had been made when printing the ad. I would say there were at lease 6 of these notices posted.
This seemed kind of strange to me so I took a closer
look at each of them. All of these price correction notices announced that the advertised price was LOWER than the real price.in two cases, the advertisement announced a rebate reduced price, but the notice corrected that to say there was no rebate.
I felt 'suckered' into the store by these false advertisements. This isn't the first time I've noticed them use this tactic either.
In addition to the price 'corrections' this store is freqently known for not having ANY stock of sale items.
