I went into RS about a year ago to buy an ammeter.  They had a sale price
on the shelf by the display unit.  When the entered the part number into
their computer, the regular price came up.  When I enquired about it, they
said that the sale was over a couple of days ago, but that since the sale
price was still posted, they would honor it.  The sale price made it a
fair deal instead of a ripoff (overpriced).  I had to say something, but
there was no hassle whatsoever after that.  They did ask if I wanted to
purchase the extended warrenty (I declined) and also asked me for my phone
number (I declined).  No hassles - this time.

 You stop telling lies about me,
 I'll stop telling the truth about you.
