Higgins' Hints: Best Buy price matching online stores

Heavy competition from online retailers like Amazon and Tigerdirect will push Best Buy into price matching. 

The Wall Street Journal says Best Buy will start price matching later this fall.  Details are still sketchy as Best Buy has yet to roll out it's price matching program, but some items will be excluded. 

Best Buy is also going to offer free shipping for items that are sold-out in their stores.  This is good news for the consumer and will hopefully make the big box stores more competitive.
