Found a class 10 32 Gig at HH Greg for $46.

I went to Verizon corporate store, best buy, Radio Shack, and found nothing bigger than 16 gig and class 4. It seems that is not easy to get your hands on a 32/64 gig cards or anything better than class 4 in local stores.

Then I walked into a new local electronics and appliance store called HH Greg and found this class 10 32 Gig card for $65. I asked the sales dude if he could price match Amazon on the exact card at $40 + shipping of $1.99. After a short wait, he came back and said that the best he could do is $46. I took the offer.

Short of a 64 gig, this is about as good a deal as I could hope to find. If you have the same store locally, go check them out and show them the Amazon listing of the same product and try and get the great price. Sweet!

Hey that's a great picture, looks like it's out of a magazine! Did you take it with the Galaxy S III?
 
And wait two days. I am more of a right now buyer, and for pennies more... I win!

I thought the whole point of this thread was to show a great cost of a product you got. Sorry. Also it sounds like you did a lot of driving. So waiting two days for free sounds like I win. Or overnight shipping would cost me $45. Still putting me under.

Of course it was taken with my S3! Thanks for the compliment.

It was in the parking lot of the store this afternoon. That is the interior of my 2012 Camaro 2SS/RS Transformer 3 edition.

Sorry for acting butt hurt :D

The point was actually intended to be about locally available retail stores. I already exhausted the Amazon search and knew I could best this deal online, but I'm the type that likes to go to a store and fondle what I am going to buy and then buy it. Call it supporting the local stores. I do buy online about half the time, but I love to challenge the retail stores to get me similar deals with no waiting. It must be a mental thing. :rolleyes:

Do you live in a third world country? Haha I don't go to any stores where they are open to bartering.

Pittsburgh, Pa.
Most stores will at least attempt to barter on price with a legitimate online retailer. It never hurts to try. I do it often and find that I can normally get close enough to the online price that I can feel good about buying at the local brick and mortar store and walking out with the product in hand.
 
You have to remember, though, that online prices are low due to not having nearly as much of overhead costs that a local store has. By bartering the price down close to Amazon's, that local store essentially gave up most of its profit on the product in hopes it'd acquire your loyalty as a customer to the store. Your "good deed to local stores" didn't exactly provide support here.
