That old guy at the flea market taught me a price-matching trick I still use

He was selling phone chargers for $9 but when I showed him a Target ad for $6 he said 'son, the trick is asking for the online price in store because they never check the zip code', which saved me $3 right there and now I do it everywhere, has anyone else gotten a store to match a website that lists a different location?

Man, that's the kind of trick that makes you realize how many rules are just made up on the spot. It's like the whole system runs on people not asking the right question, so one little nudge changes everything. Once you see it, you start spotting those cracks everywhere, from coupons to return policies to even parking tickets.
