On October 20th, I purchased a tie from the Aldo store on Amazon.com, and paid full price for it ($15). It was promptly shipped to me, but when I received it there was a Sale tag attached to it, and the price was marked down to $9.98 but Aldo still charged me full price for it.

I tried to contact their customer support (via e-mail first) and they told me they would pricematch this item to the lower price if I sent the original invoice, plus a hand-written statement describing the problem, plus proof of purchase and proof of lowered price; to CANADA. I responded back, informing them I can walk literally .2 miles from my house to the nearest Aldo store, and that it made no sense to mail all those things to Canada. They agreed, and said I could go to the store to process this refund.

I thought, great, so I went into the store, and they told me physical stores can't process any Aldo orders made from Amazon. I called customer support, and after being on hold for way too long, I was informed the only way they could help me was if I mailed those things to their center in Canada.

I don't know what to do about this. On one hand, it's only a $5.02 difference, and I DID get free shipping on the order. On the other hand, I was sent a sale item when I paid full price for it. Had I known before ordering it would be a sale item at full price, I would probably still have bought it anyway, but the fact still remains, the item was misrepresented. Also, I'm certainly not going to spend $1 on international first-class postage (plus even more if I get it certified etc) just to get a $5 credit.

All of my friends told me to file a merchant complaint with Amazon, but I feel somewhat hesitant to do that because Aldo DID offer an avenue for this conflict resolution, it's just that I feel the option they gave me is unreasonable.

What would you do?

Yeah, can't help you with that too much, Michael. The problem is we're in the early stages of ebook sales going mainstream, and that means every publisher and every retailer is trying something different. The good news is sometimes it will work out in your favor as a consumer, like Amazon forcing competitors into selling new releases for $10 no matter how high publishers want to price them; the bad news is that sometimes you'll get screwed, like every format being locked down by DRM so that you can't read it on a competing device.

One thing you can do is buy from the independent ebook retailer shortcovers.com, which I've found frequently sells ebooks at prices lower than Sony, and competitive with Amazon and Barnes & Noble. (They're currently selling Cheerful Money for $10.49.) Shortcovers sells ebooks in the ePub format, locked down with Adobe Digital Editions DRM, and they say you can read their books on Sony Readers as well as several other ereader devices currently on the market.

The site doesn't offer as large a library as the other retailers, and as I noted the books come with the same DRM plaguing every ebook retailer. But it's a good alternative for owners of Sony Reader devices until Sony discovers competitive pricing.

Update: You can also try ebookprice.info to comparison shop—just make sure that whatever format you buy will work with your ereader. (Thanks to BinaryTB!)

After they turn 19, guys go on a shopping spree, apparently to make up for lost time and replace those charming undies selected by mom.

"Our research shows that you can tell when a man is looking for a partner by the number of new underpants they buy for themselves," said Debenhams Head of Men's Accessories Buying, Rob Faucherand. "If he buys more than 31 pairs every year then he's either still trying desperately to impress the woman in his life — or else she's not The One."

After they turn 23, men basically stop buying underwear altogether, presumably because they're leaving it to girlfriends or wives — or have gone back to mom (if there's another reason, we don't want to know). Midlife crises fuel a brief bulge in sales for guys in their late 30s, who slink back to their spouses after a couple of years, and stop picking out their own underwear for the rest of their lives.

If he lets you buy his underpants, you're The One [Reuters]

Consumer electronics, appliances, toys and games are sold at www.lay-away.com, which charges no service fees to consumers because revenues come from sales commissions paid by retailers. A $35 fee applies on canceled orders.

Consumers who go to www.elayaway.com are charged a 1.9 percent transaction fee on merchandise purchased from retail partners that include Apple, Bass Pro Shops, Best Buy and Home Depot. Cancellation fees are $25, or 10 percent of the cost of the merchandise, whichever is less.

I can't recommend either site without knowing more about how well they work, but a quick comparison of a Nintendo DS Lite at eLayaway.com showed one available from Best Buy for $129, the same price being offered on the official Best Buy site. As always, read the fine print and make sure that any hidden costs aren't being bundled into the total price.

As a follow-up to the Starbucks post, we received a couple emails from employees who told us that Starbucks begins using the red cups typically on the first Tuesday of November, but doesn't start offering the peppermint mocha and all that stuff until later-November 17, according to one tipster.

From The Awl:

But the most egregious claim Wilson makes about Penneys with regard to fatness is "[JC Penney] has the most obese mannequins I have ever seen." The "I have ever seen" clause in that statement is the one thing that prevents me from declaring this outright slander. In my time at Penneys, I never saw a mannequin that looked appreciably different from any other mannequin that I have ever seen. They were all rather tall and skinny-you know, like mannequins are.

Yeah, we sort of thought so. The article also includes a fun round-up of instances in which Ms. Wilson uses the word "fat." Enjoy.

Some companies sell items saying that a "portion" or "share" goes to a charitable organization, but the actual percentage is not covered in any specific contract between them and the charity, or governed by disclosure requirements. This disturbing lack of transparency opens the door to companies that want to use the charity angle as a marketing hook, without passing on much in the way of bucks to the actual charities. For instance, the supposed recipients of charity dollars in an embedded giving campaign in a Barney's catalog only found out they were beneficiaries after the NYT talked to them.

If you really want to help out, donate directly to the charity. You can use a site like Charity Navigator to make sure that most of your money goes to the cause, and not the corporate coffers.

Winners include my full-time childhood caretaker, the Nintendo Entertainment System, the creepy stalker known as Furby and adorable, overfed Cabbage Patch Kids.

There's even room for a weird dog on wheels that used to please kids of the 1920s, back before fun was invented. But no Slinky, because it lacked dog, wood, wheels and the ability to play Tecmo Bowl.

Them, of course, be debatin' words. So let's have it, commenters — what's your favorite toy ever?

Jason Busch at SpendMatters writes,

...had CIT originally filed for bankruptcy earlier this year — around the time the US government bailed them out — it could have had a disastrous effect on the retail supply chain for the holiday season. But fortunately, the original delay — which we can thank the Feds for — allowed "both buyers and suppliers in the retail sector to get their shipments in and get paid," Kurt notes, in time for the holiday season.

That doesn't make the bankruptcy "good," since there could still be problems for stores. The Associated Press points out that this means retailers are going to have problems in early 2010 trying to get inventory, noting that "about 60 percent of the apparel industry depends on CIT for financing," and that retailers "still need a reliable source of lending to prevent shipping disruptions and to restock after the holidays." But it does mean that retailers were able to prepare for the shopping season without having to worry about how to get merchandise on the shelves.

Their reasoning is simple: if you have an easy way to constantly jot down notes on things like prices or items you want to buy, you'll have higher quality information to make purchasing decisions. Some uses from The Simple Dollar:

• Write down sale prices so you can research their true value.
• Do warehouse price club comparisons.
• Write down recipes or other food ideas.
• Make a simple price book that focuses on the staples. (Real price books require a near-obsessive level of dedication, so I like this idea best of all.)
• Record great gift ideas.
• Keep a master list of "preferred brands" and their average prices.

Lifehacker's Jason Fitzpatrick noted that recording gift ideas lets him come up with great gifts cheaply:

A perfect example of this in action: I was having dinner with a friend some months ago. When the wine was decanted, the particular funnel that the sommelier used caught my friend's eye-it was quite an interesting one. When we were leaving the restaurant I quickly scribbled a few notes about the style of the funnel. A little Google-fu later and I found that it wasn't a particularly pricey item, but it would be much appreciated by my friend and show that I notice things that matter to him.

The problem, of course, is determining which "easy way to constantly jot down notes" works for you. The Simple Dollar recommends a pocket-sized reporter's notebook, which you can buy at any drugstore for around $1. One of the readers over there suggests you avoid clutter in your notebook by keeping temporary items on a removable page:

I keep a loose page in my journal for the "To Do" and "Shopping" lists. I can move that page along the current page so it's easily found, and cleanly remove it when completed.

Lifehacker takes the hardcore (and expensive) Getting Things Done route by suggesting a "notetaker wallet" that carries cards.

Using your phone may be more convenient for some people, and it also gives you the flexibility of snapping photos. It can also be a lot slower to use if you don't have a good note-taking solution. Evernote is a good free option, and it's available for everything but the Android platform (although they're working on that, and in the meantime you can use their mobile site).

That's of course nothing to say for first-party software, as they will be installing all of the optional Microsoft software that you would otherwise have to download. This includes Windows Live Essentials, Bing 3D Maps, Security Essentials and the Zune client. Sure, it's not a completely crapware-free computer, but it's definitely a step in the right direction.

Of course, unless you live in Phoenix, AZ or Mission Viejo, CA you're going to have to travel quite a ways to get your hands on one.

The woman asked customers to tell their friends and family about her offer and said she would stay until the store closed.

Store managers told 10TV News that she paid for roughly $5,000 in merchandise with a debit card before her card's limit was reached.

The woman then announced to the store that she was returning to the bank to secure more cash but by 3 p.m., police announced that the shopping spree was over and turned the crowds away.

The store closed early so that workers could clean up. Some shoppers said they had carts filled with merchandise. When shoppers learned the merchandise would not be paid for, some customers trashed the store.

The woman's family later came forward to explain that she suffers from mental illness, which triggered both the Burlington incident and some false 911 calls. The woman has not yet been charged with any crimes related to this incident.

You can see from her list—which includes pillow protectors, wall appliqués, a can opener, and light bulbs—that it's not like any one category is more suspect. Instead, the theme that emerges is that build quality is a real issue:

The can opener is a copy of the Star Frit one that leaves no sharp edges on the lid of the can. It's attractively packaged in a window box that's probably worth more than the can opener. The first time I tried to use it, it went completely to pieces and it hadn't even made a dent in the can.

It may seem self-evident that you shouldn't buy complicated or electronic items from your dollar store, but Alexander also found a package of 400 cotton swabs that wasn't worth the buck: "The sticks bend in half with very little pressure making them kinda useless."

Alexander notes that her local store doesn't offer a return policy, so she ends up having to eat the cost of these experiments in cheapness. One of her commenters, however, points out that Dollar General stores do offer refunds. You might want to make sure your own local dollar store is willing to back up shoddy merchandise before you buy it.
