At my final improv class, the teacher recommended that we see the movie The Party, starring Peter Sellers. So I decided that I would buy the movie and have a movie night for any of my classmates that wanted to come. I went to Best Buy and picked up a copy of the DVD for about $10. I’m presently getting ready for it. However, I have developed a slightly cranky mood.
Yesterday, I saw in the London Drugs flyer that they are selling the camera I recently got from Best Buy for $70 cheaper than what I purchased it for, 29 days ago. I figured price protection would still be on so I went in today with the receipt and the flyer.
Price protection at Best Buy apparently only lasts for 14 days for digital cameras.
So now I’ve got a bad relationship with my new camera. It’s been fine, but whenever I look at it now, I’m going to think that I could have gotten it for 14% cheaper if I had waited two weeks. And it isn’t like I’ve taken any important pictures since I got it.
It didn’t help that after I was shown the door at Best Buy, I went to Superstore for groceries and saw “The Party” for only $8.66.
My timing sucks.
