Best Price Match Guarantee Programs to Shop For

Price match guarantee programs are one of the best ways to save significantly, but the most important point to make is that these plans remain in constant flux. What’s a great deal this month may be nonexistent in a year, and that’s why we advocate sticking to a few “old favorites” that you can use to watch their policies more closely.

Here, we examine some of the current best price match guarantee programs for you to browse:

Target

Target matches the price of an item when you buy a qualifying item that can be purchased for less on Target.com, select online competitors, or in Target’s or local competitor’s print ad. You can request a price match at the time of purchase, but you also have two weeks to make your claim if you can’t do it right away.

What we love about it: Target is a fave shopping destination for a lot of us, and they make it far easier to stay loyal.

Bed Bath & Beyond

Bed Bath & Beyond matches full-price, in-stock Amazon items that are sold by Amazon (as opposed to third parties). You can even price match and use a manufacturer’s coupon – just not a Bed Bath & Beyond coupon. Even so, this is one hot deal to take advantage of if you can. If you’re buying from Bed Bath & Beyond in person, you should remember that you can score special discounts by using expired coupons and pairing coupons, too.

What we love about it: Not only is there a great price match guarantee program, but shoppers can score even more deals with coupons.

Best Buy

Best Buy has another great policy – at the time of sale, the company will match all local retail competitors (including online prices), which includes items sold and shipped by major online retailers like Amazon, Dell.com, HP.com, and Tiger Direct.

What we love about it: The fine print on this particular price match guarantee program is minimal.

Sam’s Club

Sam’s Club points out that they often have the lowest prices around, but you can still take advantage of their sales if you find a lower-priced item somewhere else. If you do see something cheaper, simply call their customer service experts, or even complete your order online and include the link to the lower price in the “Coupon Codes and Special Instructions” sections.

What we love about it: It’s clear to find out what is covered (and what is not) online, and it’s a pretty generous policy, too.

GAP, Old Navy, and Banana Republic

Because GAP, Old Navy, and Banana Republic are owned by the same brand, it streamlines the price matching you can do online (which we love!). Hang onto your receipt and make the request within 14 days, and you can score discounted prices.

What we love about it: You can even get free shipping adjustments.

And this is just a start. Price match policies change frequently, but if you stay on top of your favorite brands, you will be able to score some of the best deals out there with little hassle.
