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?

    My first breaking point was the millionth time I was in the printer aisle before open on a Saturday with a manager laying into me for a half hour about how to “squeeze the last of the juice” out of people, and they dropped the “tell them you are an un-comissioned salesperson so you have no reason to take advantage of them, it disarms them, makes them trust you, you can load anything into their cart after you make them believe that” and I had a moment of clarity, and instead of going “Uh huh. Yes sir” I thought “No. I am an un-comissioned salesperson so I have no reason to take advantage of them. End of sentence.”

    Genuinely, Best Buy is one of the worst companies on planet earth.
