My local Performance won't apply discount coupons to price matches (nor do I expect them to), and
won't price match Jenson (I think that's who) because they sell a lot of OEM parts instead of
retail versions. (I haven't ever had one of the coupons described above, however, so haven't read
the fine print.)
One thing that ticked me off recently was when they wouldn't honor their own Team Performance Member
10% off offer on any Primal Wear jersey. The jerseys were on sale for a good price, but the coupon
was worded "take an additional 10% off" so I think they should have done exactly that. The kid clerk
said it would be "combining offers"; the $4 or so wasn't worth kicking about, so I just bought the
jersey and shook my head a bit. (It was a roadie jersey, so I didn't want to draw any extra
attention to myself lest an MTB-er I knew noticed me -- sort of like an AA member getting busted
buying booze!)
