Price-Adjustment

I get called a no-good scamming weasel all the time for the advice in the book. But in Marie-Claire magazine in July, a writer lists an equally scammy plan:

If stores offer a "price adjustment" policy- if the store puts an item on sale that you bought within a certain time after purchase, they will refund you the difference in price- then you can take advantage of the policy for seasonal items. This woman said she'd buy a St. Patrick's day t-shirt a few days before the holiday, then as they go to like 80% off on the day after the holiday she'd go get the refund and have gotten a shirt for next to nothing.

Rock stars and housewives: we're both bastards.
