Best Buy Membership "discount"

glarf@lemmy.world to Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world – 346 points –

So I was shopping with my wife today and I said "oh let's see if my membership helps out." So we went and added the same item to each of our carts, and to our surprise, the total was the same! So what is it exactly that I'm paying for in this membership if the items "original price" is higher for me than it is for regular shoppers?

Microcenter doesn't sell fridges, unfortunately. However, I have been pretty pleased with them since Fry's is out of then picture. That was a rough couple of years.

Oh, bummer. But yeah, I remember being simultaneously bummed about the Fry's closing, and also feeling vindicated that they were going out of business after how bad they had become in their last years.

Oh for sure, they really went to crap the last few years.
