I just got off the phone with Office Max online Customer Service.I asked if locai Office Max stores were required to 'Price Match" Online Office Max prices.The CS representative said the local stores are NOT required to do this .It is the local store option.
So I would call your local store to make sure they do price match on line prices.

Sweet deal if you could get 100 Verbs for $13.00 + tax. Might have to try this myself, even though I don't really need them.

Posted directly on their web site, as it has been for years:

http://www.officemax.com/omax/custom...Select=Pricing

As long as you bring in a printout of the web item showing the price, and maybe, if you want to CYA, this policy, you should not be denied:

Low Price Guarantee

If you find a lower price at another retailer, in an OfficeMax store, OfficeMax catalog or OfficeMax.com, we'll match the lower price instantly subject to the following conditions:

* Price will be honored when you buy the item at OfficeMax or within 14 days after your OfficeMax purchase.

* Item must be identical, including brand, model number and U.S. warranty; for private brand, components, packaging and specifications must be the same.

* Price and availability must be verified. Bring in, fax or email any current advertisement or competitor's price. Competitor must have item in stock and available for purchase at matched price.

* All available coupons and rebates will be deducted from the OfficeMax price before determining the price match. We will match point of sale prices only, excluding mail-in rebates and gift cards. If offer includes a free or discounted item, we will match only if OfficeMax carries the identical item.

* Delivery charges are added when matching competitor's catalog or internet prices

* Exclusions - Prices found at the following are excluded from our Price Match Guarantee:

o Local or special events
o Close-out or clearance sale prices
o Auctions
o With special financing
o With a bonus or free offers
o One-of-a-kind limited quantity offers at OfficeMax or any competitor
o Companies without a physical store location in the U.S.
o Products and services by third party providers
o Custom products
o Build-to-order computers
o MaxAssurance
o Typographical errors at OfficeMax or any competitor

Keep in mind that it's unlikely this will happen. Normally, they will only allow you to use a coupon, or price match, but not both at the same time. That's why the best deals are always when the product is already on sale, and then you can just use a coupon and keep things simple. However, I posted the coupon for those who are willing to try, but remember, be nice, and if they say no, just accept that. They are under absolutely no obligation to oblige you.

Did you read my message? I said it's easy when they are already on sale in-store, but not easy when you are trying to get a PM and use a coupon. Did you try to get a PM and use your coupon? In other words, did you have them match the web site price and then ask them to apply the $10off$20 coupon as well? That's what I'm talking about.

I am a little concerned! The last 50pk of -R verbs I had 2 bad ones. They are MIT. Never had that happen before.

I agree they should have done the price match & their coupon but the manager at my local Office Max said he would only honor one or the other.
The quote above allows a manager an out anyway.
By that they could deduct the coupon from the normal price first then do the price match.The manager at the store I went to didn't apply it that way but could have.
Any way I didn't purchase the discs & walked out pissed off.

I bet some managers don't take the coupon. After all it is a copy.

You agree with who? No one here suggested that they should do such a thing. You either get a PM or a coupon, but not both. Period. If they allow you to do both, it's because they're being extra nice, not because they have to or are in any way obliged to.

And let me repeat what I said again:

"...but remember, be nice, and if they say no, just accept that."

Walking out pissed off just makes things harder for the rest of us. If you don't know how to act in a decent and courteous manner, or how to comprehend the guildelines that the more experienced among us lay out in these threads, then stay away from the stores and these deals.
