Lowes Home Improvement price match policy meaningless Raleigh North Carolina

297

So I ordered a new Refridgerator from Lowes on Thursday.  Friday I saw Home depot had the same model for $67 less.  I went to Lowes web site and inquired about the policy.  I was told it applied to include 30 days after purchase.  So I witing until Saturday to do something about it, since that was when they were to deliver the refridgerator. 

So after delivery I got to the store and they tell me they wont match Home Depot, sinc it is sale price.  Really, why have a policy.  So then I call the 800 number and am told, yes they would match the sale price, but only at the time of purchase, not 30 after I purchase it.   So what exactly does this policy do?  fyi, Home Depot4 id also 45 less to haul away the old appliance.  $72 difference between Home deport and Lowes.  

The Lowes price promise give a false sense of security while the consumer is getting screwed.
