Called my local LinensNThings on sunday, and was told that they don't match % off competitors coupons. I explained to the manager that other LNT's across the country had not had any problems doing so, and that the nice CSR at the LNT 800 number said it shouldn't be a problem.
The manager still wouldn't budge... she tried the old "even if we did , we'd have to call to verify they had the same item in stock" routine, then finally resorted to the "we don't have a lechters in our local market to compete against, they all closed down last year".
(Beings I had just hung up with Lechters 10 minutes before, I new this was going to be a waste of time and effort) so I gave up for the day.
Today I call corporate. Anyone think I'm not going to be bringing home a nice Caphalon cookware set this evening <g>?
I'll let everyone know how this goes. I hate to resort to calling the folks at the home office, but heck... I could use the $200 savings for other things.
My thanks as well for the original post... Great deal if I can get it to work...
