Potential Price Mistake (or last item in stock) TOSHIBA 26CV100U 26" 720P LCD COMBO HDTV $79.99 @ Frys - YMMV

Well, whenever you see a price with .90 instead of .99 at frys, consider it as discontinued. That's what happened to this model. BTW, I used to work at frys in 2001

The price is 79.90, not 79.99

ordered... 1

subtotal: $83.90
tax $7.09
total: $90.99

Can all Fry's "Prices Mis***s" be excluded from the alert filter?

Add "-frys" to the keyword section of your alert.

A post on a good deal for a Vincent Price Blu-Ray with the addition of the word "mistake" anywhere in the post, even the plot summary of the movie, will trigger your Price Mistake alert. Either learn to live with the full consequences of creating such a broad and easily triggered alert, or delete the damned thing! I'm getting bloody tired of listening to the whiners who get their little girls panties in a wad everytime one of these gets triggered. 9 times put of 10 the alert email summary will give you enough info for you to decide if you should click the link at all, and for the rest just move on if you don't like the deal. But the "thumbs down for triggering my alert" posts should result in warnings and bans.

Hi. Not sure why you quoted me here. I didn't complain - or even vote - in this thread. I only posted a suggestion to help someone refine their alerts.

I don't have a problem with what you posted, but I have no idea why you quoted me.

There should be a douchebag alert for when people use "whiners" or phrases like "little girls panties in a wad" in their posts.

I Don't know why either! LOL I typed that on my phone and had just chosen a quick reply instead of a quoted reply to anyone. The vagaries of teh interwebs at work I guess. Sorry about the oops quote.
