You buy an item, and a few days later, it goes on sale. It can be an annoying experience. But some retailers will refund you the difference in price. Kiplinger put together a list of popular retailers that with price drop policies.
Kiplinger explains:
Typically these policies require that customers have a receipt showing the price they paid for an item that's since been marked down, and there's usually a limited period after you make a purchase that you can take advantage of these policies. An easy way to monitor the price of an item after you buy it is to set up a price alert with a Web site such as TrackIf.com, which tracks prices on more than 1.1 million products and will send an email when they go on sale.
Among clothing stores, Anthropologie, Gap, J.Crew and Macy's will all refund your money if an item goes on sale within a certain time frame, usually 14 days.
Best Buy will price match a purchase if it goes on sale within 15 days. Target and Walmart will adjust the price of an item that goes on sale within seven days.
It's worth pointing out that some credit card companies will often refund your price drop, too, provided that you pay for the item with that card.
