Restaurant Depot pricing policy

Just a word to the wise here. I went online last night and checked fresh pork bellies and the case price was listed at $2.19/lb by case weight. A real nice price. Soooo, traveled to the RD today and picked up 4 cases, 120 lbs. When I got to the checker I asked her to price check the pork to make sure of the online price and was told it was $2.36/lb case weight. I had the online screen already pulled up on my Samsung and told her that the price was incorrect and showed/told her of the online price. After talking to the floor manager, she took me to the on duty store manager who couldn't believe that someone could check pricing online. He asked me to send him a screen shot of the online price but I didn't have a signal to email it, so he let me log onto my RD account online, pulled up the pricing and he was very nice and honored the online price. He kept on saying he had never seen someone check price online. So, if you have an account at RD, check your prices before shopping and be able to back it up when the price is wrong. My savings were right at $25, just imagine how much RD is making off this from others that don't know how, or don't know that online pricing is available.

That's a good point for shopping anywhere these days, I always go to the same couple of checkers at our local stores and they always give me the local price match coupon/sale prices without having to bring anything in and it always saves a bunch.

$20.40, if the price difference was $.17/lb and you bought 120 lbs worth. 

I wonder what their prices are for briskets?  I was going to smoke a brisket for my secret ingredient for a chili cook-off at work this coming week.  I found a 9.3 lb one at my local grocer, 1.5 miles away. The price was nearly $85.   :o

With the other ingredients I figured I'd be spending around $100 for one pot of chili.  I think I'll pass on the cook-off.

I think last time I paid in the high $3s for a choice full brisket.
