Does anyone in my general area have the CompUSA ad from this week? I need the physical newspaper ad. Walmart will not price match without it. I printed the internet ad and brought that to the store but two different managers said no.

True...many locations have closed but two still remain in Houston. The Galleria and somewhere in the Royal Oaks Village off of Westheimer.

Anyways, I'm just looking for the ad.

Thanks for the help Angel, but I did print this internet ad. Unfortunately most of the small text did not print very well and was not legible. So the store manager did not honor the price match.

Hey Mike,

Yes I would still like to get the ad. Where at in Houston are you located and what time tomorrow would you be available?

Thanks,
-Sonny

I'm confused -- why not just buy from CompUSA, especially if you are going to meet someone and drive to pick up an ad, why not just get it from CompUSA?

You probably have a great reason, but this just struck me as odd, and I am now curious?

They are sold out online and in store. CompUSA will not back order and will not receive anymore shipments.

If it's the one from last Sunday's paper, I should have it (haven't read the paper). I live really close to the Royal Oaks location.

Most places will only price match if the item is IN STOCK. I've run into that issue many times in the past.

I thought they had the ads in the store when you walk in. Atleast the ones in Austin/SA and the compusa near the Galleria...
